Is there a problem with a 350lb drone operator? These restrictions make sense for most military enlisted roles but perhaps chunky folks can take on more "sit in your chair all day" type of roles? Not everyone is combat, I mean why would you need even the chaplain to be fit. In the army or navy I get it, you have to actually travel and become a liability but in the airforce, spaceforce and cybercommand there are many roles that never ever require the person be in the field.
- mjbeswick 4y agoSuch a person would be at a higher risk of many health issues, which the military would be responsible for providing care for and they might be a liability if a combat situation developed around them. They may also be seen as lacking in self discipline or having other negative personality traits.
- _8j50 4y agoThat's my point, a drone operator in a trailer in nevada will never be in those situations. Health risk and appearance are a different topic but body fat does not automatically mean unhealthy.
