For years we've been heating how bad of shape the next generation of kids is getting. If only we could have a conflict resolution by Thumb Strength and agility.

Dear God! Just what we need… more Woke stuff. Treating fat soldiers as if being overweight was an illness?!?! I remember units I served in having the “FAT Boys Program”. That consisted of PT 3 times a day with counseling on what and how much to eat and drink. Some of the soldiers on the program achieved the life balance needed to stay fit, some didn’t and would be barred from reenlistment for not being to standard. Easy solution, they were not compatible with military life. From what I remember it was a 50-50 proposition of if the soldier made it or not.

Ahhh, the good old days Brother Bernie. Nowadays, you can't hurt anyone's feelings. You can't even yell at them.

PO3 Edward Riddle - I don't know if I could actively serve these days and be a drill. It must drive our younger brothers and sisters nuts.
