I'm retired Air Force and I know they already have an extensive data collection from measuring thousands of miltary men and women that was redone only a few years ago. You shouldn't have to pay for it, as it is available via both pdf and word doc. I assume the clothing unit is still stationed at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, but didn't check the internet.Ellennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25732901.post-11830724849634097862010-06-20T15:51:43.089+01:002010-06-20T15:51:43.089+01:00Gender - F
