QuoteAlso, has anyone raised the issue recently about making the wear regulations more reasonable?

Define "reasonable" please.

Without any non-mission related weight restrictions.

Similar organizations seem to be able to survive just fine using their members' free time and initiative while
not creating multiple classes of members.

And now that the USAF has relaxed their policies, and considering CAP has no BMI or remediation program,
we're back to having standards which are contextually more strict then our parent service.

Then there's the little issue of the fact that in excess of 30,000 USAF personnel have failed the tape test
since 2010, which means there are more Airman and officers in the USAF out of weight and in uniform then
there are adult CAP member in total.

CAP pulls the majority of its membership from the general public, and has no PT requirements, program,
or expectation for is adult members, because if it did, it would cease to exist.

There should be recognition of that fact without creating a subclass of members.
