Description
The Team isn't super pumped with the news.
From the Air Force Times:
"The Air Force has loosened its restrictions on body fat for new recruits, one of the latest moves to grow the pool of potential applicants amid the military’s recruiting crisis.
In the past, men and women’s bodies needed to be 20% or 28% fat, respectively, to be eligible for service. Air Force Recruiting Service spokesperson Leslie Brown said Monday that benchmark is now 26% for men and 36% for women."
So why did the Air Force make the decision?! And most importantly, how does the team feel about it? Uh, not good.
