Great. I hope they know they will go to war sooner rather than later.

Sure.

Suddenly people are joining the Army because they hate Trump.

There are no jobs. They have no options

That’s simply not true.

Seems Americans are happy that the focus is once again on the warrior ethos and not on DEI.

Getting tired of the “warrior ethos” BS. These service members aren’t gladiators.

“This achievement represents a significant turning point for the Army and indicates a renewed sense of patriotism and purpose among America’s youth,” the Army said in a release.

The goal was 10% higher than the 55,000 recruits the Army sought last year. Average contracts per day exceeded last year’s levels by as much as 56% during the same period, according to the release.

Gee. Wonder why people are joining the Army again, suddenly?

More Americans can't wait to fight for Israel apparently.

They're salivating at the idea of killing brown folk over in Iran once our president Netanyahu gives the order

The military is disproportionately black. White people are actually underrepresented in the military. You moron.

DP. I just had a laugh at this comment. As if only white people can be racist and Islamophobia. Didn't realize there's a monopoly on racism

I have to laugh at the notion that you think that black people join the military because they are racist, vs patriotism, college money, etc. Your brain is so one-track that the only possible motivations you can ascribe to people are "racist" or "like me therefore good." It's like a modern-day nonsurgical lobotomy.

This.
Recognize that many don’t have a choice. But imagine having to put your life in Trump’s incompetent and impulsive hands.

What do you mean that they don't have a choice? It's a volunteer military and few have both the qualifications and cajones to join.

No other jobs, or maybe they really need healthcare for their families.

Yep. Recruitment is always up when people need to eat.

This was my suspicion. Trump doesn’t mind of his army is made up of people with criminal records.

Very bad time to be enlisting when war in the middle east is a strong possibility. All it requires is one false flag attack or similar disinformation to get us dragged into another conflict.

Thank you for saving us from the Vietnamese, Panamanians or Iraqis depending on when you served.
