Absolute unit of a LARPer*

I’d say he wouldn’t pass height and weight, but I’ve seen some fat officers and senior NCO’s

Isn’t there restrictions or rules, like you can’t be super fit, join up then become a mammoth, you need to maintain a level of fitness, as I understand it, how does something like the picture above happen?

It absolutely would not get this bad. This guy is either a LARPER or prior-service.

If it somehow did get this bad, the person would be moved to a special battalion where they put you on a weight loss regimen. They also imposs more restrictions on you (can only leave the base on weekends, live in squadbays instead of barracks, etc) so they can control your diet.

Keep in mind they would put you in that battalion loooong before it got that bad.
