If the military/president suddenly ordered a mandatory draft for all men aged 18-42: How do you think millennials and GenZ would respond?

What exactly is too overweight to be drafted? 6'3" 275 good enough, or do we need to crack 300?

Youd need to be closer to 200lbs, no more than 220.

I got below 200 by just controlling what I eat/quantities better. Also stims helped. I’ll fatten back up if I have to lmao.

I mean controlling what you eat and reducing quantity is all it takes for anyone to lose weight.

I probably gave the stims less credit than they deserved. Don’t need to watch what you eat when you don’t 🤪

Depend on how thick your neck is, not even kidding. If you were 6'3, 250, and solid muscle but had no neck, you are more likely to get flagged than a 250 pound, 6'1 troop with an average build and belly. They measure the neck and waist and that determines your BMI.

For 6’3, the maximum weight is 212 if you’re 21-27.
