Stop all Chapter 18's in the US MIlitary, and stop the discrimination of slightly overweight veterans in the US Army

Created by M.P. on November 14, 2012

There is evidence to suggest that Veterans whom have served two or more tours in Iraq or Agfan Wars have been discharged from the US Military because they were slighty over weight or not even overweight and the US military just wanted to get rid of "Problem Soldiers" all because the leadership has failed them and I believe that this administration is trying to get rid of veterans and put new inexperince soldiers, airmen, marines and seamen in charge. We NEED those experinced soldiers now more then ever. Why is it an issue if your overweight but can pass a Physical Fitness test and preform your duties as a soldier? Where does weight become a factor, then? It doesn't! If you wish to serve this great nation then let them serve and stop discriminating over weight.
