Defense Department Report : 75% of Americans Ages to 17-24 are Unfit for Military Service

According to a report from the Department of Defense that was released earlier in March, the overwhelming majority of Americans ages 17-24 are not fit to serve in the military. 
 

Alluding to a February 16 congressional hearing, the Defense Department  report highlighted how 77% of Americans in the aforementioned age group don’t have the physical qualifications to enter the armed forces. This represents a 6% increase from 2017.

One of the factors that explains the alarming levels of young Americans being unfit to serve in the military is obesity. Tyler Durden of ZeroHedge noted that obesity reached roughly  42% in 2020. 

Back in September 2022, a US Army General did not mince words when he said that young Americans have several characteristics that make them unable to serve in the military.
