[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"the fitness requirement" is no light matter. Like PP said, the vast majority of 17-18 year olds won't qualify in the first place for basic health deficits (asthma, ADHD, anxiety, imperfect eyesight, food allergies, IBS, eczema, and so on). Then, the ongoing fitness testing is ... very punishing. [/quote] I just want to underscore this. In addition to what everyone else has said, even a "physically fit" kid could be disqualified during the fitness component. The service academies exist to train the next generation of military leadership, and the physical requirements are very narrow, and have not necessarily caught up to modern science. [/quote]
