| The United States Military is reaffirming today in combat operations that is it a premier fighting force, an organization of dedicated professionals whose warrior ethos and ability to rapidly adapt to challenging environments is second to none. Combat operations are teaching us a lesson about the individual Service Member, a lesson we already knew, but are coming to understand better, and that is the rigors of combat are physically strenuous and only through a prior sound nutrition and exercise program will a Marine, Soldier, Sailor, or Airmen be well prepared. |

United States Military Members for all intents and purposes are athletes, and must train as such. Their preparation for combat is not unlike a collegiate or professional athlete’s preparation for his or her sport. There are some key differences of course. Military Athletes do not know the exact game they will be playing and they do not know the climate for the game. They do not know the rules (if any) of the game, Military Athletes do not even know when they will be “playing.” However, these factors only make preparation more difficult for combat as compared to preparing for a season of sports. Many of the unknown and unknowable factors reinforce an argument that Military Members need a nutrition and fitness program specifically designed to prepare them for the functions of combat operations. |
