Are you kidding with these times??? I had to read this twice to make sure these old eyes weren't deceiving me. I'm 57, been running for 30+ yrs and have a plethora of chronic injuries (ruptured PTT, ankle OA, Achilles tendonosis, patellar tendonitis, chronic back pain). Plus I'm not exactly built for distance running (5-7, 165). Despite these injuries and with limited mileage (20 mpw), I can currently run a 1.5 mile in 10:30, and a 3 miler in around 22:30.
So, and old fart like me with a "rupture PTT, ankle OA & chronic back pain" can blow away these minimum qualifying times for the run distances? Too funny! ?
Hey, STFU
I can do it in 11:00...walking...male 59.
I've been walking 5 miles in 38:00 - 40:00 in the mornings...all summer.

Are you willing to do the jobs sailors do?
U.S. military is large. If we want a debate if U.S. military is too large, let's have that debate. U.S. military, since WW2 is staffed to fight two global wars similtaneously with U.S. Army taking the lead on one side of the globe and U.S. Navy taking the lead on the other side.
USN has other priorities than demanding all personnel are physically fit. I know teenage males who have joined USN, fit and get out four, six or eight years later, fat and out of shape.
Lucky you never had blood clot/stroke. Amazing you ran the times you did with that kind of congenital defect

But have you served? I highly doubt you'd qualify for the Navy on anything else besides the most useless "skill" there is for Navy personnel, running. You sound completely unhealthy.
