But combat is one of the most calorie-intensive activity you can do. Hungry soldiers aren’t good soldiers. Whenever they could they tried to get soldiers meals from field kitchens, even those on the front lines and in active combat. It kept morale and energy up.
this is one of those things that’s hard to communicate to people… hot A’s - a single warm meal per day even - is an incredibly better experience than shipped food or MREs. especially when it’s shitty cold or raining and you’re outside 24/7
The “soldiers” currently “serving” “in Iran” are actually on a ship or a military base outside of Iran and doing a desk job, pushing buttons to launch missiles at targets the AI gives them.
Most militaries don’t have a ton of desk job time, even in peace. They make bullshit tasks that need physical labor. The aim is to keep physical fitness around 75-80% for non-special forces and 90% or better for special forces.
Everyone needs to be in ship shape. Shape up or ship out.
Several air forces do roughly 50% of peak sorties every week and test for peak sorties once a month or so. If it’s not a habit, you can rise to the occasion.
Militaries aren’t built to fight wars, but to ensure they can fight a war via muscle memory.
Ofc, if your command is particularly brilliant, the aircraft carrier you’re in catches fire, but you’ll have the muscle memory to rush to your station of you survive the initial contact without panicking.

logistically hard but worth the investment
whoosh … yeah, they mentioned the part about the lack of calories. If war were a cake-walk, that would be much less of a concern.

Tell it to literal “Armchair” up-there. Dunno what you think you want with me.
