So true

That’s exactly why I want to join. Get Some

@@300whiteout9 good luck. With these imbeciles in charge. You gonna need it!

@@300whiteout9 Well, the way I think about it is that we’d be going out and dying so bad people can continue making our lives miserable, only to go home and be tossed on the curb like we’re human garbage, used and then disposable. Given no honor and no mercy by a bunch of ungrateful morons. America won’t have the sacrifice it wants, from good people who are ready, willing and able to fight. It can only dream of such a thing.

​@@300whiteout9dam you want to die that badly?

It’s true. I never severed, but I’m 30 and have friends who have. Honestly, the more the learned about the wars they were fighting, the more disaffected they became.

I have! I’m not telling kids to join a government military who supports brainwashing by public school indoctrination camps better go get the trans people to do it…

And they’re telling the damn truth! America is a place ran by terrible people who are disgustingly rich and want us to go to war so we can fight for their freedoms and make them even more disgustingly rich. Who in their right minds would ever want to fight for such an abomination? Not me. That’s for sure.

Because this wicked country isn't worth serving

​@@mvslicewhat branch were your friends in

Anti-American sentiment is so prevalent in America....who wants to fight for that? For a self loathing country?? The left taught younger millennials and zoomers to HATE the USA and the consequences of that will be pretty severe. Recruiting problems are just the start.

Im happy to see another person hating a country who hates us. This nation deserves the glowing treatment for sure.

I did 20 years. I loved it. We can pick our career field.

@@Karoke77 ok Boomer

@@Karoke77 ​ @Karoke77 nope. I accurately described the events of my older brother: the best army officer I've ever seen, a West Point grad, combat arms, went through the Special Forces Q course, and has now spent 11-12 years in the Army. Everything I know about the US military is straight from veterans and active duty. It's a highly political and corrupt institution, which is why people are getting out in droves. It's also a welfare program to give people jobs, and an immigration program to give people citizenship. It barely resembles its historical self at its height, The Marshall Era during WW2. Read the other comments if you don't believe me and keep watching the statistics prove my point.

@@toasterpastries5811 Some people have good experiences, some bad. I was enlisted by choice, and sometimes we have more enjoyable careers. I love "my Army," but I understand you now. It is unfortunate that your brother did not have the fun experience that I had for 20 years. I wish him well in his future career / life.

@@toasterpastries5811 I am using my Army career training (related career field) in my 2nd career. I still have an Army haircut, wear a uniform and have an ID card. I must admit, SOMETIMES enlisted ("Sergeants" - NCO) have it better than officers. Respect and "love" to your brother.

Not just in the U.S.

That and if Biden would stay out of war with Russia. US will start the draft soon. Thanks Biden voters.

Exactly! They don't want to take care of their veterans!

Pretty sure america is multiple centuries old

No the constitution never fell until 1950 ish when the CIA was made the secret police and quietly started operations to change the culture so the constitution could be fully destroyed so they could be openly totalitarian.a

America isn't a Country anymore it's a Corporation

AND even if you’re willing to do it anyways you’re fighting for a government trying to turn children into a bunch of sick freaks

That and employers do discriminate against veterans. Believe it or not, veterans are seen as bad-tempered, lazy and self-entitled.

​@@jackcarraway4707maybe in California

@@zergilli9719 To be fair, from the civilian perspective...... many of us, esp from the combat arms community are "bad-tempered" . Vet will say "Hey Jim, this way doesn't work so well, try it this way." and all the civilian hears is "Hey FU@K FACE!!! Are your parent's related or something?? You did it backwards.....* knife hand * un-Fu@k yourself you RETARD!!! " then they need therapy and you're getting fired just for trying to motivate your co-workers to achieve workplace excellence.

Rebel

You were cut loose and couldn't retire after 17 years?!?

The Republicans love to pay lip service to the military yet, in reality they love to fund the war machine military industrial complex yet, the troops and veterans not so much.

Enlist

Yeah. Great idea. Slava zucchini 🤪

Barring the obese, an 18-22 year old recruit would smoke their geriatric asses.

No one is their right mind is going to enlist in their 40s to be treated like scum by incompetent leadership. I enlisted in my mid 20s and although I don't regret my decision, it was difficult nonetheless.

​@@EmperorSenatewhat branch? Are you going full time or reserve?

Except that's not the stated reason they aren't joining, and not the stated reason people are getting out. We have always had sizable numbers liberal troops, and most of us knew they were here. People are getting out primarily because of poor leadership (abusive or out-of-touch), access to sites like LiveLeak that show what happens to human bodies on the battlefield, income incongruent with the national costs of living, the amount of information available about shady government activities (Lies about WMDs), the DoDs self admitted extremist problem, sexual assault in the ranks, and a host of other military issues you probably aren't considering. No one I ever heard of or am serving with is quitting or refusing to join because "transpeople" or "minorities" or "respect women" is part of the dialogue.

@Mental Chores so true

@@romaneliasgrey1544what do you mean sexual assault in the military, do you mean gay men try to assault other men?

@@alanshearer3682 It happens in all combinations; men assaulting men, men assaulting women, women assaulting women, and women assaulting men.

@@romaneliasgrey1544 women assaulting men lol, I never heard it happen anywhere

Used to be bananas and rubber

They never fought for freedom.

And gheys

No... Nothing to do with it. When unemployment is low recruiting is down. When unemployment is high enlistment is up.

​@@jimmyjam5453 And who told you that? Where did you get this information from? It sounds like a democratic talking point.

Not to mention the warmongering against Russia and China.

I come from a total military family and I tell every young man and woman that I know do not join the military because they do not give a damn there's veterans living on the streets of America

​@@jimmyjam545399999999999

I agree. But it’s not just military leadership, I’m afraid. There’s a term in war - “Remember what you’re fighting for”. We’d be fighting so a bunch of a-holes can strip our rights away while people get shot dead on US soil every single day, so our futures can be tarnished by terrible people who only care about themselves and their money, only to come home and be discarded like human trash. You’d never catch any of us dead fighting for such a thing. Sounds awful. If we are to find ourselves serving, the entirety of our politics needs to go through dramatic change, our leaders need to start actually caring about all of us, and human rights need to be protected at all costs. We are literally doing the opposite of all that. So for the foreseeable future, expecting us Zoomers to serve America is genuinely a waste of expectations and praying for such a thing is a waste of breath. America needs to be worthy of our sacrifice for us to want to sacrifice for it. How the hell can America expect people to want to go and die overseas when the people on US Soil are so frail and so selfish they can’t even wear a god damned MASK during a global pandemic? That’s just a small example, but still highlights how selfish Americans can be.

Amen, I think a requirement for president should be that you can also pass at least a fitness test, he's supposed to be the commander and chief but our current one cant even command his own legs properly.

I’m never fighting for garbage.

@bulkierwriter2772 Agreed...but we may have to fight to remove the garbage.

@@REDOS1988 Yeah I’ll only fight a war against this country.

What are you thoughts on a possible war soon

Basically

I hope there’s enough trannys to fight china and Russia…

😂!!!!!!!! 👍

And that is why normal people aren't joining anymore.

@@eugenefirebird8938 I'm glad,men need to stop going to war, and start making love.

It doesn't

People just don't want to join because they think they're too cool for the military

🤣🤣🤣

​@@jimmyjam5453 I sure as hell wouldn't enlist under a constitution violator's orders. Guess that means we'll just be recruiting the stupid and the malicious.

Fatly fit

Fat

Isnt it like 4/10 americans overweight now lol

Do you truly want to join Jin? Because if you do, I recommend reaching out to a lawyer. Might take a bit of “ persuasion” but they might be able to help you. Talk to them about everything and anything that can be done to get in. Then bring them with you to speak to the Army/Navy. I wouldn’t try the others right now. You might have to speak to a psychologist to show you’re fine and that that was a situation you just weren’t prepared for back then. Make sure everything else isn’t so bad though that it makes things harder for you. Ikno the video said this and that, but make sure you’re not extremely unhealthy. No tattoos. Come in clean and respectable. Believe me when I say, I’ve got stuff on my record that would put your situation to shame. That’s not to insult, but more inspire you. They still want to take me. I just hadn’t yet cuz I still want to find civilian work overseas. Worse case scenario, I’m gonna have to get shipped there in the army. You can do it. Believe me, they need all the help they can get. You might also want to check around to see who can help you. Maybe call around. Some recruiters might have more clout than you realize. But only do this if you’re truly serious. Remember, unless you do some unforgivable ish that would get you kicked out and mess up your record more than you think you already have, once you’re in, there is no turning back until your contract is up…pray on it brethren.

@@kingrobotnik6950 I was not aware that lawyers could help me in this scenario. I have a medical record saying I'm depressed and have SI. It is a one time scenario under an extremely stressful situation but it looks way worse than it really was. I said a lot of dumb things back then out of a burst of emotion and I didn't expect the backlash to be this severe. This is my one and only issue. I have no criminal record, in relatively good health (slightly overweight) and passed their test easily enough. I've been told that SI is the lowest chance for waiver and given how every recruiter would tell me not even to bother it's hard not to feel discouraged.

@@jink1768 you main goal really is to just get them to realize that was a one time thing ages ago and that you’ve recovered from it and are ready to serve. They just want to know that you’d be able to hand,e the pressure. Believe me, I had a similar situation. Said some things, therapist couldn’t handle it so he decided to get someone who hit me with a “I wouldn’t feel right if I didn’t make sure you were ok schtick.” 🙄 1 week at the looney bin later, nothing was gained, I had to pay outta pocket for the ambulance, and the cowardly therapist who called that cow left. Probably went back to Japan once he realized people here express their feelings, not bottle it up and take it out in Aokigahara. In fact the only issue they had with me joining involved a panic disorder I had for awhile do to a bad edible trip. My doctor gave me meds instead of just talking to me(which is what I truly needed) and thank God I didn’t take them. Now I’m gonna get a letter from her this week explaining that I didn’t need them and that I’m ok. (Can you believe this woman tried to dance around it at first scared to give me my letter, instead wanting me to talk to a therapist…again. Yeah I talked to a couple therapists before and it didn’t help cuz they didn’t get it 😅 I’m like no Doc, YOU prescribed the meds. They want the letter from you, not the therapist) but yeah. If you have a good case and you’ve presented it to you recruiter(Ikno after my tirade you might be hesitant but talk to a therapist ONCE and get a letter from them indicating you’re good to go.) and it still doesn’t work then, yeah, get legal help if you really want to be in it and there’s no loopholes, waivers, or whatever they can do to help you get around it. There might be something everyone’s missing that a lawyer can find for you. Good luck bro and if things work out, I’ll see you out there!

This is a sign don't join this shit military it's not what you think

I’m worried now because my brother passed away last year and my dr took me off due to depression which came from my brothers death will that affect me

Yup

@@MentalChores Ur birthday starts with a two??? Go and play cod 4 lil boy

You could always enlist, boomer? The age cap is like 46, lol.

Wow! Why is it so delayed?

No you don't!

@@asanta2023 you must know someone already in the military to speed up your application.

And recruit a bunch of idiots? They've already lowered the standard way too far.

😂 they have already done that and people Still don't want to join

Is that what Putin did? No wonder his troops are getting their ass kicked.

Draft all Biden voters. It's his war!

they already lowered recruitment physical standards so all the fat people can join, too.. lol.

My son is currently on the Iwo Jima. 😂😂

i don't want to die in another pointless war for oil. If America was being invaded, I would join the military in a heartbeat.

Do you think wokeness plays a part in this? I am an older man but i don't blame them for not joining under such a pathetic commander in chief as Joe Biden who is trying to push wokeness on them. Naming a ship the USS Harvey Milk is shameful to the nation. They may be deployed against US citizens themselves if Joe's woke puppetmasters think they can pull it off.

@@jimmyware511 It is being invaded.

@@eugenefirebird8938 I agree the mass illegal immigration is a problem. But it's not like Chinese tanks are driving down main street. lol.

Why didn’t you finish school while in the military. So you can get a good job

@@Blackowl44 You're right, I should have looked into that. But working 12 hours a night on the flight line takes the drive to do so out of you. When I got out I went back to school and got a BS Electrical Engineering degree.

Understandable..,but everyone can’t stay back. We still need a military.

If they come to my home I will fight, it will probably be our own government, grew up in the jungles of Vietnam, would NOT fight for this circus. USMC

USMC as well

How is it cowardly to fight for a country i don't care about lol

@Mental Chores true

The problem started in 2018, you can probably guess who was in office.

@@xxjr8axx Trump's rhetoric woke up a lot of people. He said the quiet part out loud about the pointless wars.

@@Ultizer By that point the average American already knew that, to wake people up you need to say something that the average American wasn't thinking about like "money Is debt". The average soldier was a person who joined because they had family who were also in the military, about 80% has at least one family member. The issue with that is that for the past 2 decades soldiers have felt used and lied too, thus dissuading youth from the military.
