Military doctors raised the alarm when they discovered that
half of the army’s 22,000 personnel are overweight, and 3,500 are obese, daily
Lidove Noviny reported on Wednesday.
The army has decided on a quick counterattack: Soldiers will
go on a diet and the army may even deploy fat-fighting pills.
The Defense Ministry confirmed the obesity figures but said
pills were only a last-resort weapon, following diet and exercise.
The Czechs are member of the NATO alliance and have around
700 troops in Afghanistan.
