[QUOTE="BillM, post: 3865914, member: 45785"] I can't swear the military is using the same scales they were when I was in the USAF, 1973-1997, but in the early part, at least for women, they were using the scale the Barbizon Modeling College was using. [URL="https://www.barbizonmodeling.com/modeling-center/"]Top Models | Modeling Program | Barbizon Modeling[/URL] My ex was 5'9" tall, 170 lbs, 38-23-36. Was fit and looked pretty good. AF wanted her at 157 lbs max. She managed to get there, but was skin and bones. I was 5'11", 205 or so. They wanted me at a max of 199 lbs. Did I mention that the ex and I wore the same size uniforms? I never could run all that well, and having the knees go out at 19 didn't help. USAF had a walking option for non-runners most of my time in, and I could walk three miles in under 40 minute, and do it all day long. [/QUOTE]
