It was announced today by the Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin, that the US Army had reached its annual recruitment goals. Austin admitted that the Army had not reached its goal by enlisting more personnel, but had merely disappeared 24,000 Army personnel jobs.
Austin downplayed the trickery involved to achieve the goal but said technically they had achieved the goal. Many of the jobs eliminated impacted Austin personally including elimination of his shoe shine boy, butler boy, step-n-fetch-it Col., etc.
Austin stated that if the next years U. S. Army personnel recruitment goals were not physically met, further personnel reductions would be considered including the elimination of entire divisions to satisfy the recruitment goals. Austin stated that readiness would not suffer because eliminated divisions responsibilities shifted to the National Guard.
Hmm…..I just saw a 25k cut ..,,
I read the title and assumed they must have just reduced the goal, sure enough I was right.
By the preceding comments, I would say The Bee is gonna get some competition. LOL
Sure enough, they hype the force reduction to distract from the failure to meet their recruiting goals.
Military-aged Chinese are signing up by the division-full.
