The Army's recruiting of white soldiers has dropped significantly in the last half decade, according to internal data reviewed by Military.com, a decline that accounts for much of the service's historic recruitment slump that has become the subject of increasing concern for Army leadership and Capitol Hill.
The shift in demographics for incoming recruits would be irrelevant to war planners, except it coincides with an overall shortfall of about 10,000 recruits for the Army in 2023 as the service missed its target of 65,000 new soldiers. That deficit is straining the force as it has ramped up its presence in the Pacific and Europe: A smaller Army is taking on a larger mission and training workload than during the peak of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan -- leading to soldiers being away from home now more than ever.
A total of 44,042 new Army recruits were categorized by the service as white in 2018, but that number has fallen consistently each year to a low of 25,070 in 2023, with a 6% dip from 2022 to 2023 being the most significant drop. No other demographic group has seen such a precipitous decline, though there have been ups and downs from year to year.

All according to plan.
How do you get an army to fire on its people?
instead, they are treated as pariahs and racists and homophobic with white privilege....
Yup, no worries. Lots of illegals to fill the ranks with.
How do you get an army to fire on its people?
My first thought as well.
All according to plan and recruitment goals.
DEI don’tcha know.
The White Boys will be sitting out the NeoCon’s next war. Let’s see how your Tranny army does. I’m eager to see how Chicks with two moms, sexual deviants, furries, etc can fight.
The old military guys I know do not recommend that their family members join today’s army.
Small town and rural america is not welcome in today’s army nor are their mores and customs. Hard to say how the US army will perform without the traditional backbone of scotch-irish/german recruits —who come from these places.
Every other ethnic group in the USA produces fine warriors—but scotch-irish/german german tend to produce the most.
The US Army shifts to super high tech, new and unseen battle spaces.
While at the same time getting dumber.

Speaks about the cultural change of the white conservative infrastructure souring on the military as the reason white recruitment is withering on the vine, but believes his prescient analysis is not biased by his coming from an area where the intensity of propaganda is very likely greater than it was in Stalinist Soviet Union ( heard about D.C. juries, Steve?)

The Saxon has begun to hate.
Feminism had its problems. But the whole queer / cosplay / transsexual thing is "jumping the shark."
Obviously "white rage" and "white supremacy" aren't an issue when there aren't enough whites to blame.... So what could it be? Hmm....
