I think my favorite part of this story is the pic that Daily Mail found to represent a Sailor - LOL

U.S. Navy relaxes its rules on sailors' fitness

I'm certain that SecNav has no intention of using this quoted phrase on other standards throughout the Navy and The Marine Corps

Navy Secretary Ray Mabus said the service is not lowering standards but rather adjusting to reality. :wall:

They couldn't even find a US sailor? Hilarious.

Part of the logic is we are losing good (read cyber skilled) people, who come back as contractors.

I think a job related PT test is appropriate, and can look the other way if some cube dweller is SLIGHTLY overweight.

I ate shipboard Navy chow for three months and I thought it was great. Especially breakfast. Big stacks of flapjacks, bacon, sausage, eggs, toast, coffee, syrup, piled high. What the hell else is there to do on a Navy boat?

Swimming displaces water, that guy in the pic would survive a sinking for sure.

 

[Gunz]

He's got a ponytail.

 

[JWoody]

He's got a ponytail.

Not just a ponytail, he's got swag.

I hate to say it but that guy needs to put down the bacon and maybe pick up some soap.

Is shooting at larger siloetues structured off Sailor's their way of improving marksmanship?

 

[digrar]

Sodomy.

Not even if you added Rum and the Lash.
