Not in MY Army!

That's the Army's slogan about Sexual Assault.  Not bad, but, can we put this for the weight control program?

The "tape test" for soldiers who don't meet the height / weight standards is retarded and I've seen dudes with 6 pack abs be told they are at 19% body fat while morbidly obese fat bodies still make it because they have the proper neck to waist ratio.  Fucking bullshit.  On top of that a lot of units out there don't hold their soldiers to the standard, forge the papers and say the soldier is good because he's generally a good guy or whatever the fuck excuse is to keep tons of fun in.

This guy can't make it across the parking lot, let alone to the Objective

At the end of the day, I don't really care if you look like Mr. Olympia or Homer Simpson, but if you are physically capable of closing with, engaging, and destroying the enemy, you should probably be able to wash your body without having to keep track of how many rolls you have to move to get in to every nook and cranny.

Sad fact is that this is all too common of an occurrance.  I understand if you've been shot/blown up or are still in the recovery phase of a surgery, sure, you get a bit chubby, but there is a line, and a lot of guys are taking a flying fucking leap over it.  Looks kinda like this.

My name is SSG Douche Fuck.  Wanna go to BK?

 NOT IN MY ARMY DAMN IT!
