Pretty fucking stupid to set fitness requirements for high ranking officers.

They aren't being used on the front lines. They are being used for their strategic capabilities. Essentially their minds, not their bodies. This is probably why the requirement didn't exist before.

Lead by example. Don't ask others to do that you won't. Standards for everyone or standards for no one.

AR 600-9 has no exemptions for field grade or general officers - but I've seen a lot of them.

I get the concept but I'm not a fan of pushing the most capable minds into retirement or being demoted for failing to live up to physical requirements when that's pretty much the last thing being asked of them.
