Lol. Yah, wrecking skilled officer candidates -- especially nurses-- by giving them exercises that enlisted infantry struggle at when you have a massive nursing shortage in the military is awesome.
Meanwhile at the next door ROTC program it's all ridiculously soft and drill.
This all speaks to poor organizational controls.

Ridiculously bad take. The military desperately wants good nurses. The military also wants people who will follow orders even when those orders may cause harm to one's self. The military doesn't have a particularly compelling need for all (or even the majority) of its nurses to carry large packs for long distances.

To be fair it was a question.
Does that need outweigh outweigh the difficulty of individually tailored ROTC programs for one person? I don't know

It seems to be the instructors' fault. They are supposed to know what they're doing and should not be assigning excercises that someone is physically incapable of performing.
If they raised concerns and were overruled, then it's that person's fault also.
Whose idiocy was at fault here? I don't honestly think the military wanted people like this in the first place.
