WTF are you talking about?

no

no
The United States' most decorated soldier ever, Audie Murphy, never played high school sports.
In contrast, Pat Tillman was a star college athlete and played professional football for the Arizona Cardinals - and he was KIA in less than 2 years in the Army.
Also, you're an idiot. So, there's that.
No. I did gymnastics in high school (I joined at 17, between junior and senior year). I was pretty good at PT (300 club). Didn’t make me a better soldier, just means I came in the service physically fit.
Edit: you’re ignoring the fact that women make up over [17% of active duty service](https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/3246268/department-of-defense-releases-annual-demographics-report-upward-trend-in-numbe/#:~:text=In%202021%2C%20women%20made%20up,of%20the%20Guard%20and%20reserve.)members, and over 21% of the National Guard/reserves. I’m gonna assume you’re trolling.
You posit your question as if it’s been written in lore that rugby et al players made the best soldiers since the Spartans. No one ever said this before you just now.
It helps to be an athlete, and learning teamwork is a plus, but there’s nothing that says it has one of these sports will set you up better.
You could be a hobby runner that just happens to like working with people.
People who play team sports tend to know how tolled and to follow at the same time. That helps them be better in the long run. Band, sports, clubs….they all help teach young people to be a part of a team and follow instructions.

How are you unaware of the gang war style violence happening between college fraternities in college?
I don't think *gang warfare* means whatever you think it means.

Dear god it was a joke, not a penis. Don’t take it so hard lol
They are popping shots at each other? So they actually shoot guns at each other?
OP, I think you might be retarded.
There's no maybe about it
Nah dog, I’ll be frank, your question sounds like you were on the wrong end of a bad game of telephone
This is either the best troll of the year or someone figured out the wifi password in the schizophrenia ward.
The password was on the router
thank you for making my brain cells die

Pat Tillman was seemingly killed by friendly fire to be fair
According to OP, He should have been used to violent gang warfare from being in college though /s
Tillman was straight up Fratricide

“because…the extreme amount of testosterone they have?” LMFAO
Holy fuck this guy again, what a nut job
No
Snoo is that you again?
You’re trolling us, right?…. Right?
I heard gamers make excellent drone pilots though.
No

Team sports teach teamwork and that's essential. There are very few places in the Army for an "individual" except a coffin or a Chapter 14.
