What changes do you feel should be made (if any) with the AR 600-9? And why?

We have all seen "those Soldiers" and wondered why or how they are still in uniform. Why are we not enforcing the standard? It is and has been written for so many years. The excuse of "we allowed it because of the war" is worn out and no longer valid in my opinion. So if we are not enforcing the regulation it must be because we feel something isn't correct with it?!?!?

Why is AR 600-9 so ate up? Body Mass Index is the most ridiculous, archaic system ever. How could this be solved?

I'm so sick of seeing squared away Soldiers freaked out about height and weight like it's the executioner. And before anyone comes on here and says, "Just lose weight, fat ass." Every single one of you has met or knows someone who was good at their job but was just not genetically created in the ridiculous 1940's mold that we're supposed to fit into.
