Back during the draft weight was not a deferment. I saw a 350 pound puertorican fat boy turned into 200 pounds of muscle in 8 weeks of basic training.

No problem. 75% of the “Syrian refugees” are military age men and in fighting trim. LOL

But you can smoke the sausage, lick the carpet or decide whenever what gender you want to be.

So they turned 1 in 3 recruits away? That’s what it implies. Another one of those phony government created stats.

If we ended up in a war with people being drafted, could they be held in boot camp until in good enough shape to fight?

One-third of young adults in the United States are too overweight to be in the military

They could still become active members of law enforcement.

Also, boot camp could change all that. Break down the fat, build up the man.

Probably a lack of testosterone is the major factor.

So let them join and get them into shape. I’m guessing that basic training/boot camp will do wonders for these people.
