So in the Air Force, if you can jog a bit faster than a brisk walk for 15 minutes, you are considered "fit"?
That was our yearly fitness test!
aAnd, that was until I left in 1980.
You see, in the days of olde, when you were assigned to either to South Vietnam or Thailand, there were the Security Police’s Base Security branch. Ii was the base suppport functions,i.e., transportation, supply, and administrative personnel that ‘shored up’ the base Security guys with assignments as ‘security augmentees’.
Outside of Base Security, USAF personnel do not handle, fire, or maintain firearms.
