It says a lot that the brains in the Pentagon need to have ideas presented to them when the solutions are so obvious to anyone normal.
If you act quickly, you can enter the joint Modern War Institute and US Army Training and Doctrine Command writing contest. The contest wants ideas to solve the military’s recruiting problems. If you can offer a winning solution in no more than 1,500 words, along with abiding with other stylistic guidelines, you’ll get public recognition, and maybe the powers that be will act on what you have to say. The deadline for submissions is at 11:50 p.m. Eastern Time, on September 3.
In a post announcing the contest, the Modern War Institute, which operates at West Point, explains the problem:
“Credible defense begins with our ability to steadily attract and retain the men and women who would assume the initial burden of a fast breaking war.” More than forty years ago, Vice Admiral Robert B. Pirie, Jr. eloquently described why recruiting was a national security issue.
This year, the Army will again fail to meet recruiting goals after falling fifteen thousand short last year. Likewise, the Navy anticipates falling six thousand sailors short of its target. The Air Force has issues too, with Secretary Frank Kendall acknowledging in March that his service would fall 10 percent short this year. Except for the two smallest services—the Marine Corps and Space Force—the United States’ armed forces continue to face recruiting woes.
Do you find it as distressing as I do that the brightest minds within the military can’t seem to figure this one out on their own? It seems to me that the solutions are obvious:

Get the woke out.
Start with Trump as Commander and Chief!
Best advice would be to un-queer the military.
The military let the Chinese and globalist take our country without firing a shot. Thanks guys, gals, and freaks.
Stop promoting alternative freak lifestyles and government as baby-momma. Return to patriotic recruitment. You know, the stuff that’s worked up until recently?
To me it says that the "brains" in the pentagon are so queered that the Chinese are now poised to kick our ass in the next war.
Not being woke
More Drag Queen Story Hours at recruiting offices.
Both the Chinese and Russians put emphasis on manliness and toughness, we put emphasis on how gay and trans-friendly we are. Maybe that’s our problem. It used to be that the Army would say they turned boys into men, now they proudly proclaim that they will turn boys into girls if that is what the boys want.
Maybe go back to just fulfilling their constitutional duty?
There’s a lot of social programming training that the military conducts. Probably more training than they would be for their professional qualifications and collateral assignments. It was always something. Diversity, and now it’s woke stuff (at el) I think they should stick to the basics, remember when DoD trained to put munitions on target and the support thereof?
There’s also training that supports the members and their families such as financial management and other such programs designed to increase the knowledge base of the average military member.
Getting into and focusing on the social extremes is a little out there and I think it’s turning people off for enlistment.
I’m guessing the numbers of woke folks aren’t that great but the bureaucracy along with the MSM and all that training and focus makes it appear to be much larger than it actually is, and that’s called lying. Very few people want to work for a liar.
“Get the woke out.”
Then publically humiliate them, followed by tarring, feathering, and expulsion to North Korea.
Not even close to kidding.
Most military members join for a tour or two and then continue on with the rest of their lives. What candidate would risk their lives with some bioweapon experiment for an interim step?
For those who would make a career of it, who would start down a narrow career path only to face more Pfascist diktats 3/4 of the way through where they're forced to choose between their pension or taking a bioweapon injection?
Dequeering will prove wonders for moral and morality.
The answer is very simple, but they don’t want to hear it.
Women in Admin jobs only
No faggots
Want to help people, work for a charity, not service in military
Mission is killing people
maybe dylan could help?
i bet he would look smart in uniform
Go back to “Don’t ask Don’t tell!” And kick,anyone out that does out themsleves for being Immorally unfit to serve!
Where do I collect my prize?
