No one should be entering the military right now with clown car alcoholic Pete and Trump.
Wrong most people want to work you moron. Go back to the stupid hole you climbed out of MAGA.

Yes, we have enough. Unless Putin goes for the rest of Europe. Hopefully he's not insane.

If he decides to start WWIII and pushes his nuclear button, Russia and China will retaliate by pushing their buttons, and then the question will be moot.
Taking over Greenland would not necessitate a draft. The total population of massive Greenland is about 60,000--many of whom are older and unlikely to engage as soldiers in battle.
Greenland's leaders have made clear that more US military bases would be welcome in Greenland. Why isn't the President taking action to do so for this strategically important location ?
Most Greenlanders voted to join the US as a "territory" not a state. So that should be done first, to help ease the red tape of the base building.
What are you talking about?
I can’t find any such vote. All the results I can find indicate that Greenlanders overwhelmingly reject the idea of becoming part of the US in any fashion, whether as a territory, state, or other.
Please provide a link about the vote you are referencing.

Pp you responded to
Greenland has long been a friendly, cooperative ally. If Trump had asked to expand the base we already have in Greenland, and/or increase their number, I think it would have probably been relatively easy (in terms international relations, with each party having their own bureaucracies and interests) arrange.
On the other hand, a country who gas been threatened with forcible annexation, might not welcome increased military presence in their country by the country that is threatening them.
Sure, we could easily conquer Greenland. We could send in land troops, an army of drones, etc. However, Greenland is not fully independent, but part of Denmark. Granted, we could conquer Denmark, as well, but it is part of NATO, which means that the rest of NATO would be committed to coming to the defense of Denmark (including NATO).
In a war against Panama, Canada, and the rest of the NATO alliance, I think we might need a draft.
