A draft is inevitable.
I was in NAVAIR around 2012 and there was a pinning ceremony for an 0-4 to 0-5. His “partner” pinned him and gave him a kiss in the atrium. I was on the 2nd or 3rd floor looking down and remember saying “that’s fucking sick” and walked away... as did a lot of other disgusted people.
A more likely scenario is that the U.S. military will be permanently downsized.
Time to double down.
Maybe if they sign up tranny Dylan Mulvaney as their spokes-thingy they can get a few more perverts to enlist.
Renaming the bases and going woke will keep my family from fighting for this Government for the foreseeable future. Sad. Our military history goes back to the revolution. I hope we are involved in the second Revolutionary War.
The M A R K E T I N G of the woke began years ago, and it is bearing "fruit." (Pardon the pun.) Problem: there isn't enough fruit.
A wee retrospective.

Time to bring back the Village People.
I guess there are more queer and trans youngsters than I thought. I would have thought the percentage would have been higher. Allowing what has been done to our first class military for political purposes over the years should be a capital offense.
The objective of Biden's puppet masters is the destruction of the USA. The US Military, always a bastion of patriotism, conservative voting, integrity, and honor, was targeted by them in a stroke of evil genius.
The weakening of the Military has left the USA and the American People dangerously vulnerable to America's enemies. This was part of The Plan.
The most dangerous people in America are the useful idiots who are too stupid, too deep in denial, or too easily manipulated by America's enemies to understand and admit this. They are the enablers of the enemies of the USA.
Someone needs to ask Nimarata who is going to fight her wars for her.
Did someone leave a window open? Is that a little draft I feel?
Coast Guard is falling short, as well.
So did I...76-84. I was lucky, boy was I lucky! I was in a composite ADA battery, Towed Vulcan and Chaparral. Our mission was short range air base defense, one of the few units that barred women. I served on two air bases during my 4+ years in Germany: Hahn and Spangdahlem. A third battery was located at Bitburg.
When I was on Battalion Staff, the Old Man's secretary ordered birthday cakes from a nearby bakery. The cakes were anatomically correct renditions of buxom women, with a strategically placed cherry.
You may be right, and the children of elites and the wealthy will find new ways to avoid/evade the draft, just as they have since the War of Northern Aggression.
Doesn't anyone study history anymore?
The birth dearth that started in 2008 will effect both military and college recruitment even harder beginning in 2026 with a smaller number of 18 year olds. Watch for more small colleges closing and for recruitment to plummet further. I don’t see how we can avoid a draft in the next decade.
yes, the new promotion of sodomy in the Navy/military in general.... is not going to attract more than 5% of the potential recruits
if that.
(spoken as a person who does not object to private consensual conduct.. but the administration has no business PROMOTING and ENABLING and ADVERTISING this sort of thing and especially not in the Services, for Heaven’s sake! It is nothing less than an obvious scheme to weaken USA defenses.
It’s all intentional destruction of once-honored institutions.
Refuse to literally bake that cake, or to participate-celebrate, and where’s the redress for the punishment? Certainly not anywhere up the chain of command that is filled with the reprobates and/or complete cowards who have ‘integrated’ these very perversions in the first place.
‘Re-dress’ has been changed into ‘cross dress’, and anyone crossing the PTB will be dealt with accordingly.
Zero tolerance for sexual harassment — it’s been a stern message coming from the very brass who have created the exceedingly hostile work environment of systemic sexual harassment.
Those who went along with the experimental jab mandate telegraphed to the PTB that they could be further used and abused. Purged were the ‘rogue’ characters who would refuse unlawful orders.
These days the recruitment pool is down to those who know it’s a snake, but will pick it up anyway.
NOT my dad, father in law, mine or my daughter’s navy. Military service has been in our family since the revolution. My grandkid was probably the last one. I wouldn’t suggest it to anyone these days. Sad.
🙏🇺🇸🇮🇱👍
The elites want their war, and they want white straight men and women to do it to get killed.
That one...and the picture of the USS Cole with a hole in the hull. THAT should never have happened.
