Says so the army. Teenagers are so wimpy they have to modify their basic training to include video games! You guys have turned soft!
"This isn't a decline in our recruits; this is a decline in our American society in terms of their physical capacity," Hertling told NPR. "It's just a softer generation."

marine corp seems like they're doing just fine and there are plenty of us who play video games. I think a lot of it has to do with discipline and the expectations set by the army and it's NCO's and officers.
Not that it applies to all or even most in the army, but obviously its a large enough ammount to be a cause for concern.
