Fitness, morale, retention, and overall health are at an all time premium across every branch of the U.S. Military. On paper we promote health and fitness but we often don't have the incentives in place to properly reward those who go above and beyond to demonstrate superior fitness. All warfare devices in the U.S. Navy are now voluntary, so this SWOLESWS fitness pin would represent sustained, superior fitness, both visibly, and as an incentive for Sailors, both enlisted and officer. If you think that the U.S. Navy should make the SWOLESWS an official warfare device, please sign the petition below.
Celebrate fitness and especially celebrate those who maintain a culture of fitness!! We need more incentives in the Navy to put fitness and wellness as a top priority.
