Army to issue PT bracelet with 24/7 fitness tracking, remote mentoring
- ryanmarsh 9y ago"We know for a fact through scientific research and polls that Soldiers already love the 'PT' Belt," McDirkington said. This must be satire, however it's on army.mil. The article frankly comes off as very bizarre. Can anyone vouch for this?
- techjuice 9y agoAll public articles are approved by government public affairs officers trained in the rules and regulations of DoD and Army PR dos and don'ts so if it is live it is legitimate, they can be reviewed here: http://www.asaie.army.mil/Public/IE/Toolbox/documents/r360_1.pdf http://www.asaie.army.mil/Public/IE/Toolbox/documents/r360_1.... If there is an issue with the article you can report it here: https://www.army.mil/info/institution/publicAffairs/ https://www.army.mil/info/institution/publicAffairs/ or https://www.army.mil/contact https://www.army.mil/contact The Army does actually do polls that soldiers fill out through one of the many internal Army Enterprise Systems like most of the other DoD Military components. Also with the amount of engineering and research that PEO-Solider does it is very likely what you see is very true from the article. The satire that you detect is more then likely the Army trying to appeal to their larger younger enlisted/officer base. As the people doing the bulk of the articles are new enlisted/officer soldiers.
