Biden Regime To Mandate Vaccine For All Military Personnel By Sept. 15, Refusal Is Grounds For Court Martial
National File ^ | 08/09/21 | Gabriel Keane

Posted on 08/09/2021 12:06:15 PM PDT by Enlightened1

The United States military, under the direction of Biden regime Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, is moving to require all service members to be injected with the COVID vaccine by September 15, according to a report from the Associated Press. Refusal to be injected could be treated as failure to obey an order, and unvaccinated soldiers may be subject to punishment under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

“I will seek the president’s approval to make the vaccines mandatory no later than mid-September, or immediately upon” approval by the Food and Drug Administration, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin declares in a memo to troops obtained by the Associated Press. “I will not hesitate to act sooner or recommend a different course to the President if l feel the need to do so.”

The requirement could be moved up to an even earlier date if ‘infections continue to rise,” and restrictions such as “wearing masks, social distancing and travel limits” will apply to unvaccinated service members in the interim. The Associated Press reports that “Military officials have said that once the vaccine is mandated, a refusal could constitute failure to obey an order, and may be punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.”

National File previously reported on Austin’s push to make all members of the U.S. military become vaccinated:

Secretary of Defense for the Biden Administration Lloyd Austin is set to announce mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations for all active duty troops at the direction of Joe Biden, according to a report from CNN. “Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is expected to seek authorization to make Covid-19 vaccines mandatory for all active duty troops as soon as this week, following President Joe Biden’s directive that the military examine how and when it could make that happen,” CNN reported.

If the secretary makes that final recommendation, he could seek a presidential waiver to allow the vaccine to be administered to troops before full approval by the Food and Drug Administration. A Pentagon decision and recommendation on how to proceed could come this week, several officials say.”

Service members who have not yet taken the vaccine have been subjected to forced testing and quarantine, as well as compulsory mask wearing.

What if you’ve had it and have antibodies? They’re still going to make you take a shot?

Notice the date of September 15. The fix is in. The FDC has the vaccine approval already printed. The only remaining question is, will this foregone approval be required to list ALL known side effects like all other drugs or will they come up with a way around mandated side effects of the drug?

“So the military can change the terms of your enlistment mid-stream and put you in jail for not complying?”

Indisputably, yes.

“There is now way they will be able to function if 50% refuse..”

At the base near me 70% have already received at least the first dose.

“They cannot force the military to submit to “experimental” treatments - that is forbidden by statute and by international law.”

The anthrax vaccine was EUA when the order went out that it was required.

Some were brought up on charges at Courts Martial for refusing.

The refusing stopped.

So much for your statute (does not exist, it’s 100% regulation) and “International Law” which is has not been accepted by treaty in the US.

“Make no mistake, THIS IS THE MARXIST’S LONG-AWAITED PATRIOT PURGE of our military and ALL THOSE WHO RESIST THE EXPERIMENTAL POISON ARE DISTRUSTFUL OF THE GOVERNMENT AND MUST BE PURGED!”

Worthy of ridicule. Ridiculous.

Yeah, I do. Of the actual members I know 100% have. Some had reservations but they went ahead and got it.

No, all military members DO NOT take an oath to ‘obey the orders of the President and the orders of the officers appointed over me’.

My oath for 25 years was to ‘support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic, ...’

A soldier doesn't have to follow an illegal order. The question then becomes whether or not the order to take the vaccine is legal or illegal.

I wonder, if the FDA certifies the vaccine before the end of the year, would that violate their long-standing practices of taking a decade to approve something like a vaccine? Would the fast-track approval of the vaccine be subject to an injunction in the courts to assess whether the decision to approve it was made for political reasons, just like how the Democrats went to court to block the citizenship question on the census form?

Wouldn't the census issue be a precedent to ask the court to make the FDA show documentation of its process that was used to come to the conclusion to approve the vaccine in such as short timeframe, just like how the Commerce Department was ordered by the court to show?

And while this is moving through the courts, wouldn't that give a reprieve to the soldiers in the military who don't want to take the vaccine?

This is so very very wrong.

This is madness.

For what? What good can come of it?

It is irreversible and lots of very bad things can happen.

The government should be sued for all the stuff they mandate soldiers take that has sickened so many for life.

Making criminals of the sort of troops who support America and are not woke supports the Socialist takeover of America which is ongoing. All dissidents will be eventually disposed of if the collectivists remain in control of the country.

Sorry, I was incorrect. I think that a few years ago, There were two versions of the oath for officers and enlisted, but it seems that they are the same now.

A court martial is much better than a military funeral.
