I think the politically correct term is husky. |

So they have to shop for their uniforms and camos in the Husky section of the store. Big deal. My mom says that there is nothing wrong with the Husky section. |

LOL! I remember going in to the local JC Penny store in the 1960s to buy our school uniforms at the end of summer. They had a Husky section. Polyester slacks (blue or black), Button-Down Dress shirts (white or light blue), Neck Tie (blue or black), Dress socks (blue or black) and Dress shoes (blue or black). LCE and MLCE gear was NOT an option for add-on accessories. However, we did go to the Army/Navy store to buy an OD Green, canvas, messenger bag to use as a book bag. EVERYONE had one of those. |

They need to do more PT and stop serving such high calorie items in the Mess Hall ! Just like the School Lunch Program. ! And before that the President's Physical Fitness Program of the '60s … I remember the "Husky" clothing section. Sounds like PC even though it was use a few decades back. I thought it was where the pets were located in the store, when I first heard it … I guess maybe today in the ARMY, you can't say, "Drop the donut Fat AS !" You're going to more PT until you puke Dumbo !!!! Some may find that much too "harsh" … ? |

Yep, especially if there are women in the unit. You'll be drummed out of the service faster than, well, really fast (censored for content)….. |

This is good news for units cut off from supply, the lean and hungry soldiers will be able to live off the fat, slow soldiers until the relief column shows up. What? What? You don't think the Old Guard didn't eat the Young Guard on the retreat from Moscow?? |

Well, at 5000 calories for an MRE kit, what do you expect? Oh… you're not supposed to eat it all in one go? |

Even C-rats were only 2500-3000 calories … And that was too much 99.9% of the time … |

There's a Darwinian cure for that. |
