Good ol days..lol... I used to do a bunch of these when I was in the Army. I always won first place in my weight classes. My first one ever was in Ft. Lewis and I was hooked on them ever since. Good way to motivate other soldiers too. I use to get my soldiers to compete as well.
I agree, i'm in iraq and they do bench comps once a month at my FOB i'm getting them to do a Push Pull for May (Bench/Deadlift) then we'll see who the men are. i know for a fact no one deadlifts
Its not really about support but any movement would disqualify a lifter. Movement of feet and especially hips would help a lifter so all movement is prohibited.

They may be able to bench in the video but I doubt they can shoot as well as a Marine. Or run for that matter...
I hate service bench press competitions anyways, bench press commandos who cannot squat or deadlift any real weight win those things.
