Topic	Army drops nade throwing requirement to graduate, new recruits can't throw far

Would've probably gone over a whole lot better if they'd kept the "these kids can't throw far enough" out of the public explanation and just given some bullshit "we don't typically have engagements that require throwing a hand grenade very far anymore, so we're just gonna show them proper form and drop the distance requirement." I mean, you could easily see that as a justifiable explanation and wouldn't need to stir up any controversial shit in the process. I don't understand why people are so fucking bad at coming up with decent explanations for this kind of stuff anymore. Why should they intentionally obscure the real reason for dropping the requirement? Are you actually advocating they just make shit up? --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
