Being a soldier is a lot more than how well you shoot. In combat, you're not getting into the correct prone position, checking the wind and adjusting the dope on your sights. You also don't get to wear a shooting jacket. It's about being able to rappel and hump miles upon miles with 50 pounds of gear on your back. It's about going on a patrol in extreme heat conditions and not suffering heat stroke because you're out of shape. Young adults being turned down have to be pretty heavy, not just a little overweight. It's a serious problem in this country and parents are abdicating their responsibility by letting junior spend too much time playing games on the computer and not enough out riding bikes and playing.
