Berlin - German soldiers are overweight, smoke too much and do not engage in enough sports, according to a report published Tuesday by the parliamentary commissioner for the defence force. "Male and female soldiers are too fat, partake little in sports and pay too little attention to what they eat," Reinhold Robbe said in his official report to parliament. He called the situation "shocking."

In the 18-29 age-group, military personnel are in worse condition than their civilian counterparts, with 40 per cent of soldiers overweight against 35 per cent in the general population, according to Robbe.

Despite the widespread availability of sports equipment in the army, more than 20 per cent don't engage in any sports at all.

Robbe also noted that an alarming 70 per cent of military personnel were smokers.

i bet 70% or more of our soldiers smoke...or atleast 70% of the 82nd airborne

it's a shame they let them become fat fucks. easier targets, just maybe an extra round here and there to buck em' down. if the German Army adhered to the standards they had in the second world war, (and i mean the regular army even, not the SS) this would be a very very diffrent story.

my glorious infantry brigade was tasked under the 82nd for a few months, and the ones that don't smoke chew. and of course, everyone drinks like fish.

yeah, this isn't a video game where you press a putton/pull a trigger and thats it. try running the amount you do while playing one level in a video game, oh and shoot an automatic weapon like an MG that often and tell me that dosn't fatigue somone, expecially if your a fat boy. your average joe would probably get tired of holding a regular rifle out at aim after 5 min

(f'in serious)
In all fairness, the Germanys have mandated state service for your first two years out of their equivalent of high-school. That tends to be where the fatties come from... tons of kids who don't want to be in the army doing desk jobs.
