A prática de exercícios físicos no meio militar tem importância preponderante para a capacidade do combatente no cumprimento das missões operacionais. Esta concepção é complementada com a preocupação à saúde do militar, de forma preventiva às doenças silenciosas, aumento da longevidade e melhora da qualidade de vida. Historicamente o treinamento físico nos exércitos das civilizações clássicas era tratado como atividade fundamental para o combate. No início do século XX, para a preparação dos exércitos às grandes Guerras Mundiais, alguns chefes de estado concebiam a preparação física como aspecto fundamental à preparação de seu militar ao combate. A educação física militar no Brasil, inicialmente praticada nas Forças Armadas e posteriormente incorporada às Forças Auxiliares teve sua origem em uma incursão de um tenente do Exército Brasileiro como membro da delegação brasileira nas Olimpíadas de 1936 em Berlim, Alemanha. Esta história não está referenciada nos livros de história, mas foi contada pelo próprio Tenente Roberto Pessôa ao jornalista Régis Rosing em reportagem ao esporte espetacular. Nessa olimpíada o Brasil&nbsp;não obteve medalhas, porém extraiu do regime nazista importantes informações. Infiltrado&nbsp;entre os 94 atletas da&nbsp;delegação brasileira, o então Tenente&nbsp;Pessôa, com 26 anos e recém formado em  Educação Física no Brasil,&nbsp;foi enviado pelo Exército Brasileiro para uma missão secreta. Pessôa, fazendo-se como integrante da comissão técnica para chegar&nbsp;à Alemanha e descobrir a metodologia da&nbsp;educação física dos soldados alemães, os quais detinham alto nível de desempenho, disciplina, autoconfiança e resistência.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; O tenente brasileiro a partir de contatos durante as olimpíadas conseguiu cursar a Academia de Esportes do&nbsp;Terceiro Reich e teve sucesso em sua missão. As técnicas de treinamento alemãs que produziam atletas de alto nível foram absorvidas e transmitidas ao Exército Brasileiro, ajudando a desenvolver as práticas de educação física aplicadas até hoje nas Forças Armadas e Auxiliares do Brasil.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Setenta e quatro anos depois do episódio, Roberto de Pessôa é General reformado e completou&nbsp;cem anos em fevereiro.&nbsp;
