This is evidence that CICO does work, isn't it? Everyone ate the same food and did the same exercising, so they all ended up with the same kind of body. If there were any truth to woo like "setpoints", then the overweight people wouldn't have lost weight by doing what maintained the weight of healthy weight people.

If it was the actual military, there will have been both entry requirements and a fair amount of self-selection to ensure that the people coming in are much more homogeneous to start with than the general population.

This is not even close to a scientific sample.
