It is also costly to the military, said the report. Nearly one-quarter of military recruits are rejected because they are obese and it costs the Pentagon $1 billion a year in added health care costs for obese troops and their families.

More stunning, said the comprehensive 101-page report: " 70 percent of today's youth are not fit to serve in the military due to obesity or being overweight, criminal records, drug misuse or educational deficits."

This most likely.
I honestly want to see a percentage that includes the amount of weight they're out of spec.

The biggest problem I have seen though is a complete lack of any logic or common sense.

Just keep them in reception instead. It'll motivate them to get the fuck out.

the PT failure platoon is reception Bn.

they already keep hold under and hold overs there until they can pass the entrance or final record pt test.

PT twice a day. lots of sitting in silence in the bay, in between getting smoked for no good reason, beyond the need for more PT.

Basically this.

Half of the obese kids are like >pic related and not like the extreme caricature of obesity like was briefly shown in the video clip in the article.

The media has some responsibility for this misperception, the images they show to represent obesity are almost always on the far end of morbid obesity, but you don't need to have a gut to be clinically obese.

30% of the US youth is a little over 12.5 million, that's a lot of people eligible for future military service.

Force schools to actually teach fucking nutrition and basic calorie counting. It took 3 years after graduation to even understand the idea of TDEE and how eating over or under it affected weight.

>Drugs, Criminal Records

Hate to admit it but sometimes those guys make the best soldiers. Gangbangers are notoriously known as being pretty sharp.

>70 percent of today's youth

I'd like to know if they actually sampled the entire US population or if they're referring only to those "youths" who've attempted to enlist.

Maybe you should, oh I don't know, read the fucking article you lazy sack of lard.

Then it's a good thing modern warfare doesn't need that many people.

In what fucking universe? I served alongside gangbangers and there's nothing sharp about them.

That is not an education problem, that is you being a "special" boy.
