Similarly, in combat swimming, military personnel are in uniform and they need to run a certain distance and swim a certain distance and then run again, as if they were at the battle front and have to swim across rivers and streams.

Here's a video of combat swimming at the African Military Games 2024 in Abuja.

naptu2:
I know that those people are not serious and as I've said, their posts are meaningless, but I'll explain anyway.

Sport is very important in all armed forces around the world (it's so obvious that I shouldn't have to state this). It's part of their job.

Military personnel might need to engage in unarmed combat and what are judo, taekwondo, karate, boxing, etc? They are sports.

Military personnel need to be physically fit and might need to run during battle and trek long distances. Have you heard about combat marathon? It's a sport in the Nigerian Armed Forces. Troops carry their rifles, backpacks and other heavy equipment and run long distances in a marathon.

Sailors, amphibious forces of the army and airmen need to know how to swim and what is swimming? It is a sport.

Shooting is a sport and so are fencing and archery.

Team sports like football and basketball also improve teamwork and promote bonding and as I said, military personnel need to be physically fit and what is weightlifting? It's a sport.

So how can someone ask why military personnel are engaged in sport? Isn't that funny?

Similarly, in combat swimming, military personnel are in uniform and they need to run a certain distance and swim a certain distance and then run again while carrying equipment, as if they were at the battle front and have to swim across rivers and streams.
