German soldiers in afganistan deemed " too fat to fight " ! First they were accused of not wanting to fight , then they were blamed for falling in their main mission to train the afghan police> and yet ,  a German parliamentary report has revealed that in 2007 german forces in afganistan consumed about 1.7 million pints of beer and 90000 bottles of wine . diuring the first six months of this year 896000 pints of beer were shipped to german forces in afganistan . brtish and US bases in the country enforce a strict ban on alcohol . the physical condition of the soldiers was already in question after a german armed forces report found that 40 % of its soldiers aged 18-29 were overweight , compared to 35 % of the civilian population of the same age !

if they're too fat to fight then why the HELL do they think they can get away with wearing Speedos!?!?
