Milley was interested in one thing, that that the troops were well versed in CRT and Woke.

“Thank god they are all vaxxed and boosted.”

The vaccines were never supposed to cure anything. And they never have. But if you understand military medicine you’d know that it is within the need to keep the member in the battle and not down and out. And that’s what the vaccines provide, make you feel better therefore you can work.

The article separates overweight and obesity concerning military members. According to the Harvard T H Chan:

“Roughly two out of three U.S. adults are overweight or obese (69 percent) and one out of three are obese (36 percent).”

https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/obesity-prevention-source/obesity-trends-original/obesity-rates-worldwide/#:~:text=Roughly%20two%20out%20of%20three,are%20obese%20(36%20percent).

So this problem with the military is consistent with US society. But there’s something that is not entered into the equation. Many military members are extremely cut. If the measuring system is based upon height and weight then the in shape person could be considered overweight even though they are in tremendous shape. And remember, these are the people that have to be in shape so they work out at least 5 times a week to stay that way. I had a troop that was competing for the Washington state body building championship at light heavy that for military standards, was overweight. It happens more than you think. And the overall standard for weight and fitness is different for each of the branches to the point that the regulations involved over rule themselves.
