This is a fake news tweet but it would be one of the few things Hegseth has done I'd agree with, if he were to actually adopt it. Our military is entirely too fat, specifically AF and USN. Now with this comes some concessions that need to be met. In the USN we are expected on base 11-12 hours a day and none of that is working out. I firmly believe we have too many ships in service and they're all undermanned. Properly man them and allow for mandatory PT 5 days a week. I love running so I could easily pass the Marines standards (I run a 19 minute 5K and 45 minute 10K at 37 yrs old) but not everybody wants to go work on a ship all day and then go home for an hour run like I do 5 days a week.
Btw, part of my desire to create this post was to humbly brag.
