It will be obvious as enlistment terms end and there are no more re-ups.
If Kerry wins, it won't be the same country we have known. I don't know what individuals in the service of the country will do, but I won't fault them if they leave.

His intention is the brain child of Soros...it is from SOROS that John F Kerry will take his marching orders...
THE MILITARY'S FIRST DUTY IS TO PROTECT UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION AND PROTECT AMERICA FROM ALL ENEMIES BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC... JOHN F KERRY IS THE ENEMY DOMESTIC
Duty is not to the Commander in Chief but to the constitution and to America If the POTUS is the enemy domestic...then the military's duty is clear
If the C n C is insane or criminal to follow blindly is wrong...and not professional
A professional's loyalty must first be to the nation and not any one man...
Anyone who follows Kerry will have an equal share in his betrayal
IMO
I should hope so! Guess who his father in law be??
Unless it was Zell Miller.
The sad thing about the military, if they start dropping out because of Kerry, is that the safety of our country will be compromised by a weak military. Of course that is what Kerry wants.
We've heard, here on FR, of a number of NG and Reserve people who have not re-upped and are awaiting the results of the election. If Bush wins, they will re-up. If Kerry wins, they won't. Simple as that. And who can blame them?
I have a better idea. Let's make sure that we get four more years!
Doug: I trust your son is a patriot, lover of country and a genuine soldier. While Mr. Kerry is many things, he is still a possible President and would be the representtive of this county. However, our country is larger than the leader that sits in the White House. It's us. It's people, a diverse collection of not only patriots but oddballs and some folks who, well it would be hard to classify them. But in general we are a good people. And that's who your son would be protecting and or fighting for. The person in the White House is simply the temporary representative of our country in just one of the equal branches of governnment. Again, if your son is a partiot, a lover of his country and genuine soldier, then he will understand and will continue to serve proudly and at his best. Anything less would be less than the three admirable qualities listed above.
I heard several in the military being interviewed by Sean Hannity last week. Both said that they were waiting to see whether or not to reinlist or get out. I think there will be a MASS exodus. Might as well, since being in the military won't protect US any more...
And THANK YOU to all active military personnel and your families for the service and sacrifice you give to maintain our freedom.
Prayers--and votes--that GWB is re-elected!
However, SOMEONE has to be here to train the younger Sailors. SOMEONE has to teach them the traditions, the codes of honor, and the history which is their heritage as American Fighting Men. If ALL of us old-timers got out, who'd do it?
I do not serve a MAN...I serve a NATION. I can live with a ninny as CinC, for a few years, if only to pass on the traditions and honor which were passed to me. If Mr. Heinz-Kerry is elected President, regardless of his treasonous activities, you'll not hear me disparage or defame him here anymore. That's my responsibility and duty. I'll hold my tongue in public forums such as this, so I can finish my work.
If Mr. Heinz-Kerry is elected, it will only indicate that my countrymen WANTED him to command me. It is the essence of American Military tradition to respect that, as gut-wrenching as it would be. There are many young Sailors coming in right now whose lives might be saved by what I might teach them, and who might win victories based on it as well.
I simply cannot say "Screw You" to them, much as I might wish to say it to Mr. Heinz-Kerry.
My son Taylor has been talking about enlisting in the Army...wants Airborne and SF...
He is abandoning the idea altogether if Kerry is elected.
I loathe Hillary Clinton. She is an evil, manipulative witch. I can't believe I am actually saying this. Kerry is worse.
My hubby informed me the other day that he will retire if the traitor is elected. He would like to stay in and will if Bush remains in office. He is lucky, he has the years and points to do so...but he will need a part-time job to make up the loss......anyone interested in hiring a (future)former 1sg who likes to give orders?.....LOL......btw...my hubby has heard similar stories and thinks that those who can will leave the military....
I work with a number of military retirees and active reservists who are surprised they haven't been recalled because of their backgrounds. They are scared poopless that if Kerry wins they will be recalled...and be wearing blue helmets.
"Stolen Honor" on PAX TV Sunday (per Newsmax)
Druing the Clinton years the only reason I did not get out of the military was that I was close to earning my retirement...I had 23 years and was going for 3o so gutted it out.
If I were in today and was not close to retirement I would get out....
