TOO LATE: US Army Removes COVID Vaccine Requirement for Recruits Following Historic Low in Recruitment Since 1973
Gateway Pundit ^

Posted on 11/16/2023 11:00:11 AM PST by Tench_Coxe

The United States Army has removed the COVID-19 vaccine requirement for new recruits.

The Army’s recruitment challenges have been mounting in recent years, exacerbated by the stringent COVID-19 vaccine mandates that were previously in place.

(snip)

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin mandated the experimental COVID-19 vaccine for all military personnel on August 24, 2021, and like thousands of others across the Department of Defense (DOD).

In March 2022, the U.S. Army joined the other branches of the US military in their efforts to purge the ranks of all vaccine dissenters and announced the separation of three soldiers who refused to take the experimental jab. This is the first time the military branch has discharged soldiers over the mandate.

What false flag? You might have seen it already. Fake missiles coming out of Yemen? Near misses in Iraq/Syria? Need more?

This, plus bringing back white men in recruiting ads is a dead giveaway.

In 2021 they though the only threat was domestic, so it became important to ensure military loyalty by screening out white men.

Now they are facing multiple overseas wars, and the white men are needed again.

F#ck them !

May the DC Globohomo Empire collapse and die as soon as possible !

I was thinking more on US soil. Yes, I think 'they're' that desperate. Think Jericho.

I also talked my son out of the Navy tradition in our family. I don’t want him serving under Biden.

ive told my 18 year old that i am 100% against her joining the service. Even as a US NAVY vet. Just because they backed off the clot shot now doesn’t mean something else won’t come along 2 years from now and they will force you to get that then.

Get it in writing and certified before joining...

The damage has been done and a full house cleaning is the only way to get the military back to where it should be. Get rid of the politics, racial discrimination, wokeness and everything else hindering their mission. Only a strong commander in chief can make it happen.

I would posit that is still the case, but can't do that AND be embroiled in wars.

———-
Same here ( Army) but in addition to senile Joe, I will not allow him ( or friends and family) to go serve for the Demoncrats current “ American values”, a corrupted , Godless government, trans/ gays in every agency, boys in girls locker rooms, men in woman’s sports, etc……it is quite clear to me a huge military defeat is on the horizon.

Best to let the “ consequences “ of a fallen government run its course, then stay prepared to start from scratch in rebuilding.

I thought forced experimental vaccines on Military personnel went away from the Anthrax lawsuits. During the 1991 Gulf War I and many others, were ordered to take this shot under duress. And I believe in 1995, the lawsuit reversed forced experimental vaccines under the Nuremberg Codes—including anthrax.

So how did they get away with the covid experimental shot for this long?

Asking more knowledgeable individuals for input.

Yup. Send them overseas to fight.

Then go after them when they come back.

But i don’t think it is going to work this time. The white men from flyover country will not believe the globohomo politicians that they have to “defend America” by fighting overseas wars.

They can try a draft, but that gets opposition from almost everyone.

The other thing is that this Regime is fragile, and incompetent. We saw in Kabul how they deal with a crisis, even if they have years to plan.

If they create an international incident to try to spin up a war, they are so decayed and inept that it might collapse the Regime, rather than manipulate the nation to support another foreign war.

I hated those airgun shots. I don’t think they use them anymore. Wonder why?

Yes the U.S. Government has shown itself to be an unfaithful partner and not to be trusted.

“especially with rumblings about bringing back the draft”

They can draft all the feminists and trannies first. They wanted equality; let them have it.

I would imagine the response would be along the lines of: "You've already shown to be untrustworthy. Why would we believe you now?"

exactly. They can change their minds at the drop of a hat, or a dip in Big Pharma profits. Why be on board with that.

Ok, now just offer “tuck-friendly” uniforms, and I’m sure the recruiting will pick right up again.

Not just the vax. Nobody wants in Brandon’s Trannytary. Or even to serve under him.

Too late A-holes.

The White Boys will be sitting your next war out. The good news though is I hear diversity is a strength!

I dont know what was in that air gun either, but I could not use the arm for about 2 days after and blood was dripping off my fingertips for an hour after they did it.
Even as a fireman recruit I told them I would not stand still for another one. You could not refuse the innoculations but all the remaining shots I got were with a syringe.
