Good for your son and nephew. It is sad that our leadership is methodically destroying this country.

“They are doing all they can to demonize Southerners in particular at every turn. It’s only now starting to dawn on the idiots that gee, they kinda need us after all…..”

Good point. And now they are demonizing the Union side as well. I never thought I would see Grant and Lincoln be attacked. This country is changing for the worse at an alarming pace.

I’m sure he would!

I’ll bet you and I would have a lot of stories to swap. You from the legal end and me from the piles of paperwork seemingly EVERY action (good or bad) takes to accomplish! ;)

“There is a sense among the American public that the military is becoming increasingly political and that topics such as race and gender equity, critical race theory, and wokeism in general are commanding more attention, at the cost of readiness,”

Short version?

The American public is concerned the United States military is becoming a communist run anti-American organization that is NOT loyal to the United States of America.

New CONUS Unit of Assignment. Light Infantry. All MOSs available. Assignment by Gender. Be the first to serve, proudly, in the 4th and 5th Combat Brigades of the 82d Airborne Division. The 4th Combat Brigade will only have women assigned. The 5th Combat will only have Transgender identifying soldiers. Anyone previously determined to be Transgender or Female identifying will authomatically be identified for assingment to these two all new combat units. Because you will be filling every single job in the military at this unit’s level, there will advanced promotions until the units are up to initial strength at all ranks and grades. Combat infantry, engineers, scouts, snipers, medics, and administration, etc. Parachute packers will also be indiginous to each unit to ensure no foul play.

The most important element of the military, senior NCOs, will determine how this ends. If they bail, they will take the main repository of knowledge with them. Many of them are totally fed up. It won’t take much more for them to leave. Many who would have stayed until they aged out will get their twenty and scat.

The Biden Pentagon is falling far short of its military recruitment goals, prompting frequent high-level meetings on the issue and the consideration of dropping some of its 250 disqualifiers for military service, according to a recent report from NBC News.

According to the report, the Pentagon may overlook certain medical conditions such as asthma and ADHD, and put more effort into recruiting illegal immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as young children.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So interesting that of the DROPPING OF 250 DISQUALIFIERS FOR MILITARY SERVICE, mandatory COVID experimental gene therapy is not one of them...Hmmm

And we will take illegals?

All part of the plan?

And keep in mind this is occurring during a force reduction phase.

And they plan to require the boosters (plural) this fall for all military personnel. Both the third and the Omicron update.

How is that going to work when we also promised Japan and South Korea additional forces?

It’s not meant to be anything more than window dressing. Biden loves the tough-guy role. I seriously doubt any sizeable army units will actually move. They may shuffle some USAF units which they will announce as ‘troops’.

Also wait until the boosters are mandatory in the military (this fall). Massive resignations and many will be kicked out, as many have vowed not to get boosted after bad side effects from the initial doses. It’s already started with some units.

30-35% of our squadron is still waiting to see what TX does here soon. We still haven't gotten our exemptions officially denied yet, but I'm sure it's coming. But yea, of the guys I talked to that did get the shots, maybe 50% of them are definitely not getting any more - so, if they actually kick us all out, puts SQDN strength at around 45%. Ouchie.

The military is bleeding out and dying of self-inflicted wounds.

This is all preventable but then the woke Progressives now running it are intent on killing it.
