A new study says that 1 in 3 Americans are too fat for military service. 71% of people in Kansas are considered obese. Your opinions as to what can be done?

LTC Bink Romanick Shit Sir some days when I am on post, it looks like 1 in 3 Soldiers are obese and shouldn't be in. This doesn't surprise me.

SGM Steve Wettstein I fought the battle with AR 600-9 my whole career and won. They're getting many of these soldiers in OSUT and chaptering them out, costing the Army money that could be better used, and wasting time on the admin process.
We only get to develop the material that USAREC sends us.

LTC Bink Romanick Sir the only time in 25 years that I made weight was coning out of AIT. The big ones I see now a days are not PVTs coming out of AIT.

LTC Bink Romanick give handouts to everyone. Over tax the rest to pay for those not working. Crash the economy and watch the dollar be worthless so that we can only eat rice or water and ketchup. That will make us all skinny.
