You may be interested in looking at the standard NOAA forms & tweaking them to better reflect your needs:

forms: http://www.ndc.noaa.gov/forms.html
The medical forms are pretty close to what's needed for the annual commercial diving exam, with a chest x-ray added in for the first year & every 5 years after.
Everybody I dive with is CPR-First Aid certified.
About that 3 mile run; that only shows how well a person can run (handy skill from the tone of some of the posts
) and aerobic fitness. A timed surface swim would reflect needed abilities more closely.
The "Body Composition Screening Form" could be combined with an aerobic fitness exam to avoid failing otherwise qualified individuals that might not meet the "height / width" requirement. It's not a good idea to tick off olympic weightlifters, pro football players, or other massively muscled fit individuals. :mean:
