My, how things have slipped since my day as a US marine. Blaming the Covid-19 lockdowns, Associated Press has reported that around 25 percent of US Army troops have developed obesity, to such a degree as to compromise their fighting ability. This is almost certainly not solely a product of the Covid lockdowns, but has been developing for some time, with the basic junk food diet soldiers are served up, as well as the decline in discipline in physical fitness. By contrast, the communist Chinese soldiers would be court marshalled if they turned in the same performance. So, the China war better be a high tech one, rather than the intense, often hand-to-hand fighting, seen now in the Ukraine war. Otherwise the US soldier will just “tank out” in exhaustion, his/her plump legs twitching, as the soldier rolls on his/her back with intense heart pains, probably Covid vax related as well.
