He was an exercise nut so it suited him just fine. It got him out of work for two hours so he didn’t have to use his personal time after duty hours for doing exactly what they were doing.
The Navy Doctor that put him on the list said he knew he wasn’t fat but the rules didn’t have an ‘escape clause’ so there was nothing he could do!...........
I hope it didn’t affect his performance evaluations or physical fitness tests. If it did he should have had an alternate way to calculate BMI. But the mandatory PT was a bonus for sure.
