The abstract provided by the Pentagon The implications of being identified as overly fat (by body fat measurement) in the United States military are significant and include loss of promotion, restriction from duty-related travel, and even discharge from military service. Less than 3% of total Air Force active duty population are placed on the punitive Active Duty Mandatory Weight Management Program (ADWMP). flowever, there are many others considered overly fat but not identified by their commanders. Although weight or body fat status do not automatically identify someone as under fit, negative lifestyle factors such as lack of exercise and poor eating habits may also be present. These may detrimentally affect military "readiness" or the ability of a person to perform strenuotis physical tasks during wartime deployment. Finally, poor lifestyle choices ultimately affect long term health risks and onset of disease.
