A Thursday report said the military dismissals over failed health and fitness tests were 15 times higher than in 2007. [link to www.examiner.com (secure)] Quoting: smilesun Too much beer.

TheBiss User ID: 25023924 United States 12/13/2012 11:26 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | After Desert Storm, I got back to Germany and intentionally gained weight... drank as much beer as I could. Ate a lot of sweets, because fuck the Army. Closest thing to communism that America has to offer its citizens. The company CO came up to me and said, "You don't care much for the Army, do you?" After the war, I'd been pulling a Maxwell Klinger, walking around the barrack wearing a long white Saudi robe, sandals, and a chicken hat. "What gave you that impression Ken?" "I'll make you a deal. You pass your next APFT and I'll sign your early-out papers for the convenience of the DoD..." "That's a deal Ken!"

Anonymous Coward User ID: 6235765 United States 12/13/2012 11:43 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Can't follow the rules, your out. They do give you warnings and a time table to get fit though. At least they did over 20 years ago when I served. you get A LOT of warning, actually. I made it several years "overweight" I was 6'4 and allowed 205 lbs, I was 225. Always passed tape though. The problem with this isnt that soldiers are fatter, its the standard of soldier they allow in in the beginning. They lose weight in basic, then get lazy in their career and get fat. |
