We all were.

You do know your discharge will keep you out of a lucrative post military government position...right? Not a lot of jobs for an out of work linguist with anything other than honorable on their 214.

Not that I doubt your authenticity, but quick...name the base where linguistic folks train jointly in TX. What branch wasn’t there?

One of the hardest schools in the military - why chose that and then get out over a vaccine when the military essentially forces you to get ton of vaccines including yellow fever, anthrax, small pox and others the general populace doesn't get. Military has always forced vaccinations on their troops.


This.

I think you made a bad decision.

The military went after people who refused them and ruined a lot of their careers. If you ever wanna deep dive on it's pretty fricked up - made examples of them so others wouldn't step out of line. Some of those people have sued.

I haven't met another airman willing to separate over the shot. I think that has more to do with my career field. The overwhelming majority of the intel field is very far left

Air Combat Command had serious issues with many fighter pilots saying frick off. ANG had big issues since most traditional fighter pilots are airline pilots. It shut that shite down with the quickness

Congrats. I wouldn’t want to work for Biden who is a domestic enemy.

I worked intel squadrons in the military at Air FOrce special ops command and most of them weren't far left however their was a purge that's been ongoing for some time in the military where lot's of conservatives get out because they are sick of the leftist dogma that comes with it. Their even teaching it at West Point. I am also still involved in some capacity with Intel and I wouldn't say it's extremely left leaning but times are changing.

Yeah they cancelled forced anthrax shortly after I deployed in 04. Not sure if they ever brought it back after that. It was super controversial at the time. It's the only shot I didn't want to get. So many guys came back with huge knots in their arms and talked about how bad it burned. Luckily for me, I had no reaction to them.

Good job. I’m a little less suspicious now. :)

I admire your decision too, by the way.

I was in some interesting meetings when they were looking at up to 50-60% of pilots saying they would walk.

Why would they even bother? The left is doing a damn good job of destroying the country. Invasion would be nothing more than a waste of time, money, and lives.

It may just be my experience, from what I've heard people involved with special operations are usually more on the conservative end

Judging by the totalatarian nature of leftist beliefs. We will all be in camps before it's over. They already want us there but right now it's not politically popular but it will be. 20 years of gaslighting from our media will win out in the end.
