Don’t do that. Most of the obese people I see are not capable of the work the military does.

Then give them back their french fries, fried chicken, and whole milk dammit!!

[I cannot think of a name]

Well, you can’t really blame them. After all, in the last 200 years there has never been a time that a ship was on fire, anyone had to drag hoses across a deck, or carry a wounded sailor up narrow stairs.

(What else can that idiot in Washington do to weaken our defenses?)

The new rules add a single-step abdominal measurement for those who don’t meet the Navy’s maximum weight allowances by height, and they raise body fat limits to a maximum 26 percent for men and 35 percent for women Men and women will be treated exactly the same except when it doesn't help women.

Gots to make room for the fat lesbos.

Read between the lines - most capable and accomplished are leaving the service ...

[BobL]

Great - a bunch of Chris Christies in the Navy. It’s bad enough having him running for President.

[rlmorel]

This is no surprise. Every single decision made is destructive to the service, and I have stopped thinking they are just poor decisions.

God forgive us, we will pay in blood for what they are doing.

[biff]

So we are going to let fatties that can hardly make it to the fridge for a piece of cake in the navy? OK, move over Pootie, we are coming to get ya.

Can’t wait until the adults are back in charge.

[Politicalkiddo]

Now all Tranny women can pretend like they’re men with validation from our military. We are the laughingstock of history.

[Secret Agent Man]

they may all float better. drowning resistant.

[Our man in washington]

I administered the PRTs when I was in the Navy Reserves. The current standards aren’t that hard to meet. Frankly, one needs a little bit of “oh, yeah, I’ll show you!” to make it in the military. No sailor should accept not being in the best possible shape they could be in.

I got screamed at my first drill weekend because I couldn’t master a basic exercise. I hit the gym hard the next month and came back able to do it.

Meanwhile in North Korea:

The soldier said that, despite lengthening of the required term of military service, the size of North Korea’s armed forces is destined to decrease because few people born during the 1994-98 “Great Famine,” and who are now of serving age, will be able to pass the KPA physical examination.

When I was in back in the early 70s there were a lot of fat Chiefs walking around with coffee cups. And a few First Class POs, too.
