“Start with the illegal aliens first, there are millions of them. Deport them all as troops to the Ukrainian front lines. Once news gets around, there won’t be so many illegals crossing the border with Mexico, unless it is to travel south.”

Ha.... I like the way you think. Illegals as fodder for their war machine. After all, most are military age males running about the US.

No, I just went in, that is why after jump school I got sent to the 9th Infantry Division instead of the 82nd, 7 of us unassigned did because we had been trained as artillerymen and artillery instructors and the army was experimenting with troops skipping AIT and us teaching them to be 13As when they arrived at our unit.

Deport them all as troops to the Ukrainian front lines.

That isn't the historical use of such troops.

They will be used to suppress domestic revolts. They will be promised "a pathway to citizenship" as long as they follow some very unsavory orders.

They will do what they are told to do. Being from somewhere far away makes that a lot easier.

The woke military can’t survive being voluntary.

They also can't survive in any kind of peer-opponent conflict. If there is a war, they will be ground up faster than newbies can be drafted. Conscription will not solve the problems of the military. It will add some interesting new ones.

The skipping AIT thing is weird isn’t it, they were also rotating officers around to give them experience, for instance our battery commander came from aviation.

“The GOP now spies on you, censors you & wants your kids to die for GloboHomo.

I’m not voting for them.”

Don’t vote for them - hasten the rush to your own demise!

Most of the wars during America’s history were started by Democrats. When Trump exited the Presidency he had ended participation in all wars in which America’s young people died. Now, just look at how many conflicts BiteMe has gotten the US involved in; with perhaps World War III to begin before the scumbag is finally removed from office. He is the ultimate loose cannon because he thinks his political acumen should allow him to be Dicktator.

“What about the girls? Why are they being discriminated upon, in today’s woke military?”

A good question for Slow Joe.

“The last draft was for Vietnam. Ukraine may be the next.”

Both misadventures traceable to Democrats!

I believe the Marines do that with their pilots also, I can’t say that I liked it but that isn’t based on any big view of the bigger picture, I just thought he was too nice to handle us, I liked him and respected him but I wanted a harder Captain than he was.

In a way, it does.

Military life sets a regular and productive schedule for living.

Legalized Marijuana will reverse that unfortunately.

That was the war fought by our army that was 93% draftees.

And we could draft that kind of a number because the government went through the steps and followed the process; there was a declaration of war.

I registered at 18. At 19 I was drafted. Fun times.

I remember when my (ex)husband and I were sitting with a roomful of other students watching the lottery. Fun times. :( His number was relatively low — under than 100. I guess I could check for sure, but I don’t remember his birthday.

"It wasn't "optional" for me when I turned 18, and that was in 1999." . . . . "It actually happened twice. And I don’t remember specifically what I was having to apply for either time but it was at a government office...and I had to sign up for it in order to receive whatever it was."

Were you applying for college tuition aid at 18? Young men are required to sign up for Selective Service when they apply for FAFSA.

“I’m not voting for them.”

*************

Amazing how they keep finding ways to discourage people from voting for them. Truly amazing.
