The worst I saw was an Air Force NCO (no offence to the AF) that literaly looked like Chris Farley. I thought he was some fat guy in hunting camo at first, not military. Yeah.

The military is not being as strict in enforcing height-weight standards because the force is already stretched thin as it is. The Marines are the least affected by this, as they are the smallest branch of the military. The Army, being much larger, can't afford to kick out people for being a little overweight right now. Keep watching though, as Iraq and Afghanistan end, you will see a drawdown, which is normal. When that reduction in forces occurs as it always does, a lot of the fatties will get the boot. Overweight soldiers embarrass me too, that's why I made sure if I got any, me and smoke (PSG) un-fatted them real fast. hope that helps, CPT P, US Army 2 Tours in Iraq (That's 27 months Marines!)

More info would help us answer. One thing I'll say is that someone might not look like the movie stars who play soldiers in the movies, but still be strong and in great physical shape. It's all about performance, not being pretty. And keep in mind that some jobs only require a person to be in the minimum acceptable conditioning, while others have much more stringent requirements. Walking into a Human Resources office on base, for instance, won't necessarily give you an idea of what the Infantry requires for fitness. What specifically has you distraught?
