Another hillbilly slack jaw who never served
The Trumpanzees think that we civilized people are upset that our military is meeting its recruitment goals. Biden asked his God to protect our troops at the end of every speech, didn't he? Not sure what mangling of the reasoning process would bring them to that conclusion, but I can't say I'm surprised.
Awesome.Army to meet 2025 recruiting goals in dramatic turnaround, denies ‘wokeness’ is factor
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Army expects to meet its enlistment goals for 2025, marking a dramatic turnaround for a service that has struggled for several years to bring in enough young people and has undergone a major overhaul of its recruiting programs.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said the Army is on pace to bring in 61,000 young people by the end of the fiscal year in September and will have more than 20,000 additional young people signed up in the delayed entry program for 2026. It’s the second straight year of meeting the goals.
“What’s really remarkable is the first quarter contracts that we have signed are the highest rate in the last 10 years,” Wormuth said. “We are going like gangbusters, which is terrific.”.....
==========================================
Turns out having a decisive leader that believes in peace through strength and does not want to get into wars. And having a person like Hegseth that wants warriors who can fight if need be is good for recruiting.

Pesky details.Awesome.
From the link:
Instead, a significant driver of the recruiting success was the Army’s decision to launch the Future Soldier Prep Course, at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, in August 2022. That program gives lower-performing recruits up to 90 days of academic or fitness instruction to help them meet military standards and move on to basic training.
In the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2024, the Army met its recruiting goal of 55,000 and began to rebuild its delayed entry pool. About 24 percent of those recruits came out of the prep course. Wormuth said she expects it will contribute about 30 percent of this year’s recruits.
trump needs them to attack peaceful protestors in our nation's cities.As we're mired in a Republican economy,
the military is practically the only place other than fast food that jobs are available.
The pay seriously blows, but they at least feed, clothe, and shelter the recruits.
The soldiers only need money for beer, tobacco, weed, tattoos, and hookers,
but they really don't even get enough for that.
How do these people do that?We can't cheer for the people that keep us free.![]()
