The Pentagon ordered all service members to get vaccinated last month and didn't rule out a court martial for those who don't. More than 800,000 service members out of around 1.4 million still needed to get their shots at the time of the mandate, according to Pentagon data. But during the budget bill's markup under the House Armed Services Committee, an amendment, now section 716, proposed by Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn., made its way into the bill that prohibited 'any discharge but honorable' for vaccine refusal. 'I am appalled that the Biden Administration is trying to remove my amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that prevents anything but an honorable discharge for service members who refuse to get the COVID-19 vaccine,' Green said in a statement to DailyMail.com. 'This was a bipartisan amendment — every Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee agreed to it.'

If I were serving, I would consider it an honor to be dishonorably discharged by an illegitimate commander in chief.
Yes just an idiot.
But the Freedom Caucus released a statement urging GOP members to vote against the NDAA to hold the Biden administration ‘accountable’ for the frenzied Afghanistan withdrawal, to fight against ‘turning our military into a progressive social experiment,’ and to protest an amendment that adds women to the draft. Freedom Caucus Chair Andy Biggs said at a press conference Wednesday afternoon he believes his caucus is unified in opposing the bill. ‘I don’t think there is a dissent.’ Buck told DailyMail.com he is ‘leaning toward voting against’ the bill due to its enormous cost and frustrations with the military.
He called the $85 billion in equipment left behind in Afghanistan after the withdrawal ‘absolutely horrendous.’ ‘The idea that we’re just going to be writing blank checks for the military is terrible.’ ‘We have weak military leadership who will not stand up to political leadership,’ he added.
Buck said that he, like other Republicans, was also concerned about critical race theory being ‘forced upon an unwilling military.’
Odious
E tu adult diaper man.
As I understand it, congress is exempt from mandate of getting the shot. Wonder why???????
Still seems like a Nuremberg violation.
Forcing experimental drugs on soldiers is a No No.
This insane “mandate” will help weed out the smart ones from the military services, the ones who can understand the danger from the vaccine technology. Our military, damaged so much under BHO, will be finished off under Biden. The night the election was stolen made the world a much more dangerous place.
Xiden says lots of stupid things
Yet, the unvaxxed poor from all over the globe are being let into this country.
Dishonorable and Bad Conduct Discharges (BCD) entail a trial by court martial. Hunter Biden was given a General Discharge for cocaine use, so they big guy wants to treat service members who refused the vaccine far more harshly than his own son who couldn’t put down the crack pipe.
Total BS. A Dishonorable Discharge is devastating for one’s future. It is not appropriate for someone who refuses to take an experimental vaccine, especially since COVID-19 presents very little risk to this population. Biden, Austin, and Milley are destroying the military.
We can all see how covid is now being used as an extortion tactic across the board
“Forcing experimental drugs on soldiers is a No No.”
Had a conversation with a friend other day whose has many family members in the military who mentioned they’ve been “experimenting on our troops for decades”. Heck, why stop now? (MAJOR SARC!)
Should be noted that the Communist Chinese are NOT injecting their military with a debilitating possibly lethal mRNA experimental injection.
