Not everyone needs to be a lean mean fighting machine in the military. What you have to understand is that a small minority of soldiers are actual warriors at the tip of the spear. 80% of the military is all the crap in the rear that pushes beans, bullets, intel, medical, etc.
Sure, I maxed every PT test while on active duty as an infantry officer, but why would I give a crap if the the motor pool or mess hall personnel were chubby as long as my hummer ran and the eggs were not undercooked? And yet you're still a f u c king commie.

It’s the new-ish standard for all the services. To try and drop any and all dead weight before you make the 20 year mark. They’ve tightened the reigns on letting folks coast on through to retirement. Maybe a money saving plan for the government.

I almost became on Marine, but when I told the recruiting officer I had an aversion to push-ups... he suggested maybe I should do something else for a living.
It's just not fair... I want to be a Marine but I don't want to do the push-ups.
Can someone recommend a good lawyer?
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
