It would be interesting to look at the disability discharge rate for 2-yr stints, compared to 4-yr and 6-yr stints.

It is not COVID. It is the WOKE virus.

“People Sleep Peacefully in Their Beds at Night Only Because Rough Men Stand Ready to Do Violence on Their Behalf”
Orwell/Kipling/Churchill **

“and Rough Men Do Not Like Following Pansies as Their Leaders.” LTGM

“It burns with a white rage against societies as a whole, from military leaders and chiefs of state to (more common in our time) comfortable civilians in easy chairs, who send rough men out to serve their interests brutally, murderously (what is war?), and then—when circumstances change and in the exquisite safety and fastidiousness of their living rooms they suddenly find these rough men’s actions repugnant—disown them.”

Richard Grenier on the film “Breaker Morant” had a commentary titled “The Uniforms That Guard Us”

Would a sane person take a 50k bonus, to defend a totalitarian regime, hellbent on wiping out morality and liberty, killing Americans, subjugating America to a foreign socialist power, which peevasively commits treason, and which unleashes an inflationary wave which makes their 50k purchase 25k, or worse (likely much worse if we don’t stop the Schwab/Putin/Xi junta...

The military should have stepped in to stop this madness before it started.

But unfortunately they are one of the biggest players in the deception and takedown of America.

Thanks to wokeness, the military has lost the high esteem in which Americans once held it. Before they let their inner Leftist out, maybe the Generals and Admirals should have taken notice that a lot of their rank and file troops come from the very people they most despise - so-called “deplorables” from “flyover country”.

If I were of that age, no way would I join today’s woke military. Thankfully, I’ve been successful thus far in discouraging extended family members from joining it as well.

No amount of money would entice me or any of my offspring to join the woke forces. Even before they were woke the armed forces were a rotten deal, constantly dealing with their members in bad faith, betraying and abandoning them at every opportunity.

Now on top of that they are setting them up for the mother of all Pearl Harbor situations and will be completely useless until a total leadership overhaul is effected.

The U.S. Army, for the first time, is offering a maximum enlistment bonus of $50,000 to highly skilled recruits who join for six years,

“Highly skilled” in BLM/CRT terrorism?

Sure, let's blame everything on COVID.

I would like to point out something to the soldiers who are considering the 50 thousand re-up bonus. To Biden, your service and skills are worth 50 thousand dollars. And it is possible that you can be sent into a combat zone and be killed. Now compare that to the plan by Biden to give 450,000 dollars to illegal aliens, and all that Biden requires of them is to sit on their asses, collect welfare and food stamps, and vote Democrat.

To Biden, the monetary worth of a soldier is 1/9 that of an illegal alien.

And let's not overlook the obvious. A soldier who refuses the VAXX will face administrative punishment. An illegal alien who refuses the VAXX will receive no penalty, and he will be flown, free of charge, to a city the Democrats choose so that he can vote out Republicans.
