On a separate issue....A crack shot and a good dancer

Activities that require exquisite control of breathing:

1. Target shooting

2. Tango dancing

3. Playing the violin (see autobiography of Yehudi Menuhin)

4. Weight lifting

5. Tai Chi

That quote comes from an evaluation of a Cavalry Second Lieutenant during the Indian Wars.

I thought that it was interesting to see what was important back then.

No physical fitness scores. No comments about supporting Equal Opportunity.

He was a good dancer, and by golly, that was important.
