What do you think about the military using "thirst traps" to recruit?

Some videos came up in my feed of this ONE "e-girl" running around shooting guns, flying in choppers, riding in tanks, riding on COAST GUARD ships and other stuff that no normal Army person would be allowed to do. (She claims to be an E-5 in the Army). Everyone calls her out on being a "psyop" and she claims this is all done on her own time (bullshite).

I am of the opinion this should be illegal. I am fine with the military recruiting, but they should, by law, be required to "own up" to it. Not a fan of covert propaganda being used on the U.S. population, even if it is for a "good cause." Because if they are using propaganda for this, just think what else they are trying to influence through similar means.

If you join the military, a group that is notoriously filled with dudes, thinking it will get you some vag, you deserve the letdown.

I heard that the Navy had an island base that was rumored to have a girl behind every tree.

Are you saying men are being tricked into enlisting because they think it gives them a shot at nailing an actress in a TV commercial??

Seriously??

Yes Lujan is mainly who I am thinking of, but there are others. It's so obvious her videos are shot and edited by the government.

Oh and I did try to link a video in my OP, but it was age restricted so I didn't. I don't do Instagram.

Shortly after I got out the Navy I got a recruiting letter from the Army with a certificate for a free Frisbee if I visited the recruiting office.
A frickin FRISBEE !
Worse the letter was signed by. Army General.

I sent it to my congressman-Gillis Long at the time.Told him I thought George Patton would be spinning in his grave if he knew Army Generals were trying to recruit soldier by offering them Frisbees.

He wrote me back,agreed with me wholeheartedly.

What ?

When I was at Ft. Leonard Wood there was a female truck driving school there on the opposite side of the base from where we kept the new recruits.

They were women but you had to get within 4 feet of them to make an actual observation. Many of these females resembled the truck that they were driving.

One of my daily/nightly headaches was keeping the new male recruits from sneaking over at night to visit them .
