Maybe if they focused more on making the military an actually attractive option they wouldn’t have a manpower shortage.

What sane person would go to war and die for the US government?

It’s almost like catering to a fringe political group will have a detrimental effect on recruiting.

Pretty sure none of the armed services have made 'recruitment mission' (their words for quota) in quite a few years. Can't imagine why.......

Have they tried trannypower as an alternative?

I think it was more to push out military families and rural troops for minorities. You can get your family citizenship if you join so probably why they let millions of people in.

Well they fricked themselves bad during Covid when it was either get the shot or get kicked out.

Then, they IV’d the koolaid and went with all this gender and homosexual nonsense.

Not me or my son. This is from a family with generations of military men.

Same. I’m the 6th generation in a row to serve. My son will break our family’s 150 years of service and I don’t mind at all….

The military has changed to private contractors. Up to $2000/day. No health or retirement concerns down the road.

Iraq was over 50% contractors/mercenaries at the end.

When white males are given privilege yet no longer are the majority, it makes sense that non-whites and females are not interested in signing up.

I have quit discussing politics but you set this up for an easy rebuttal.
