I'm thrilled, but we can get those numbers lower.

Edit should have put this in the dunk tank.

They’ve essentially been taught that rules and law and order don’t matter and that the underlining American structure is to blame for any and all wrongdoing.

michael-laugh LMAO at US Military and "rules based order"

He adds that in just 20 years the amount of high school and college-aged students who “never thought’ about joining the military has risen from 25 percent to nearly 50 percent.

I'd rather serve crack than serve this country

The amount of younger people who have older family members in the military has also decreased, which has not only hurt recruitment but knowledge of what the military has to offer.

What the military "has to offer" is about four years of living in a centrally planned society where all of your basic needs are taken care of and you can form a strong social bond with your fellow soldiers, which is honestly pretty nice but it's not worth killing foreign kids over and it's cool that more people are realizing that.

In response to the low active force numbers, the Department of Defense is now suggesting there be a “national call to service,” by leaders and politicians.

This can only result in even lower recruitment numbers.

Unfortunately, our Constitutional Republic is being attacked from within.

Uncritical support for the American Fifth Column. I know if we go to war with China what I'm going to be doing.

This alone made me want to get in as an adult, but then I remembered the whole empire thing.
