    I don't know anything about the swimming. This is the text book answer on Navy Swim Qualifications from the Navy.com site.
    1. Enter the water feet first from a minimum height of five feet.
    2. Remain afloat for five minutes.
    3. Swim 50 yards using any stroke or a combination of strokes.
