摘要: No anthropometric survey dedicated uniquely to submariners has been conducted since the 1970's. Indices that reflect the physical dimensions of today's sailors are needed to design and construct equipment, tools, and devices to be used by submarine personnel. Reference tables of outlying percentiles for upper body, lower body, and heights and weights for female and male Navy personnel were developed to reflect the physical dimensions of today's sailors. The average height of submariners has remained unchanged in the last 30 years. Today's submariners are taller than the Army, overall Navy, and the US populations. Military populations weigh less and are taller than their US population counterparts. Indices provided in this report may be useful in designing equipment such as stretchers and submarine escape suits to be used onboard submarines. When designing military equipment, anthropometric measures sampled from diverse male and female military populations should be used as opposed to the general US population. / NOTE: Technical rept. / Supplementary Notes: The original document contains color images. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
