Qualifying today and qualifying in WW2 were probably two way different things. We needed a LOT of people in WW2 so they probably weren't all that selective about who they let in.

Yep. Hitler's war machine was parked on the beaches on the opposite side of the English Channel, and his bombers were pouring high explosives down onto our cities practically every night for around five months straight. I couldn't have stood the shame if I didn't do my bit.

...

And then by a cruel twist of fate, I get posted to Burma to fight the Japanese: a theatre that, for Britain, had nothing to do with national survival and everything to do with imperial possession.

Seriously, so many "I wouldn't qualify because I sat and started at a computer/TV most of my life, while stuffing my face with junk food".


Actually, I wouldn't qualify because I'm already 26 and suffer from Type I diabetes.

I have flat feet so there's a possibility I'd be rejected although it depends on the recruiter cause my grandfather served

I only fight in non-movie wars.

Six-day war seems the most badass, but it seems a little racist without the nuance, which I think is the non-movie cause.

I mean I had kidney failure when I was 3 and I managed to recover just before I would've had to be on dialysis for the rest of my life. I still have to maintain a relatively low sodium diet, keep hydrated, don't expose myself to high heat for extended periods of times, like I'm not supposed to go in saunas or hot tubs or anything, etc.
And a lot of the conditions people are listing are similar to that, things that are completely out of their control, so I'm not sure where you're getting that from.
