This is true, I can say from looking around here at SWTG that SF may be in the double digits as well. And being not even a fit fat as in a powerful guy with some muscle shape and signs of strength does not seem to stop them from placed in leadership positions.
There are alot of skinny-fat guys in the military that are not fit by any stretch they have the muscle tone of a ten yr old girl. We are in a strange time the cross fit body lean craze is producing lean soldiers that are great 100 meter sprinters but no good when it comes to stamina.
With the pencil whipped PT scores running a-muck I am curious how these guys actually judge fitness shoot,move and communicate fitness, long range movements with heavy weight and being fit to fight upon arrival. H2H fitness goes into the category of combat fitness.
The Army chow halls give our soldiers shit nutrition and then expect our soldiers to make height and weight and perform and make decisions at a high level WTF!!!. Camp Mackall is a classic example of giving our soldiers who are expected to perform like a high perfomance engine with low performance foods. SFAS/Q-course studs are performing marathon stamina events with low density low quality nutrition unlike the Navy.
