First off my unit decided to tape me in ACU uniform. Saying that they would deduct two pounds for my pants since I removed my top, boots and personal items in my pockets. I'm thirty years old, standing 72 inches and weighing in at 242 with my ACU pants and belt on. They said my neck was 17 inches and my waist was 38.5. I'm aware that I'm allowed 24% percent and I registered at 21%. The SFC that was taping me told me that the Army standard states that men that are over the desired weight must register at 18%. I'm almost certain that I've got a counseling coming and have been reading threw the regulation yet can not find his reference. So I got a height and weight done today.
