Seriously doubt he gets kicked out.......considering recon is voluntary and all that. I'm guessing, though, that there is still room (boat spaces) in his original MOS for him to fall back into?

No, they're not a personal award. They have no tie (unlike the Good Conduct Medal) to honorable service, just 4 completed years of service.

14 Pull-ups, 100 Crunches, and a 21 minute 3-mile run would get you a 252. The money maker on the PFT is pull-ups, so I'd focus on them and keeping your run time at or under 7 minutes.
