If the standards are as you say, how come we are getting so many fat, generally unfit, officers turning up on their first tour? This is most common amongst the females, some of whom are actually obese.
Is it lack of enforcement at Cranwell?
Many many moons ago, when I went through IOT, we were beasted on the physical side and I left resembling a racing snake as did my peers. Those who did not make the grade fell by the wayside.
That's why I am scratching my head. The standards seem correct but, somehow, the end product does not support this (in some cases).
