"Woke U.S. Military Faces 2024 with Smallest Size and Lowest
Qualification Levels in 80 Years � Pentagon Issue �National Call of
Service� to Younger Generations"

"Reports emerging from the Pentagon suggest that the United States
military is entering the year 2024 with its smallest size and lowest
qualification levels in nearly eight decades. This development raises
significant concerns about national security and military readiness in an
era of evolving global threats.

According to Daily Mail, the total number of active-duty personnel has
dropped to levels not seen since the early 1940s, a period before the
U.S. entered World War II.

The emerging challenges in military recruitment are becoming increasingly
evident, as seen in this year�s significant shortfall of 41,000
personnel. This gap highlights the widening disconnect between the
military establishment and the younger generations.

Ashish Vazirani, the acting undersecretary for personnel and readiness at
the Pentagon, acknowledges the tough recruitment climate, which has
compelled the armed services to lower their target numbers for active
personnel in recent times."

"Recruiting has been hampered by the COVID-19 vaccine mandates as well as
an increasingly woke military atmosphere where trans soldiers are give
special privileges while Christian soldiers are persecuted, bases host
drag shows, and leaders with a history of anti-white statements are
hired.

Rep. Matt Gaetz notes that under former President Donald Trump�s 2020-
2021 recruitment policies, the military was on point in meeting its
staffing and recruitment goals.

However, the tables have turned under the Biden regime. Last year, not
only did the Air Force but also the Army and Navy miss their recruiting
targets. This underperformance, according to the Congressman, is
symptomatic of deeper issues relating to the misplacement of priorities."

"Compounding this issue is the declining pool of qualified applicants.
Military leaders point to a worrying trend in the shrinking percentage of
young Americans who meet the physical, educational, and moral standards
required for service. Factors such as obesity, lack of high school
education, and criminal records are cited as key barriers disqualifying
potential recruits.

According to a report released earlier this year by four retired
generals, the majority of Americans aged 17 to 24 are not eligible for
military service.

The Intelligencer reported:

According to the report, the reasons for military ineligibility are
varied and relate to:"

"Physical health factors, including obesity. In Illinois, nearly one-
third of young adults are too overweight to qualify for the armed forces.
Yet such problems actually begin much earlier in life; the obesity rate
among 2- to 5-year-olds in the state is 13%.
Academic factors. Military service requires a high school diploma or GED.
However, nearly one in eight Illinois students fails to graduate within
four years, a figure that increases to one in five among low-income
students. Statewide, about seven out of 10 incoming kindergartners are
unprepared for school success, according to the report.
Social and behavioral factors, such as substance abuse and criminal
records. Nearly 9% of Illinoisans aged 12 to 17 report using drugs in the
past month. Illinoisans 18 to 24 years of age comprise 15% of the adult
population, but 33% of adult arrests.
In response to these challenges, the Pentagon is reportedly considering
several measures. These include revising recruitment standards, enhancing
incentives for enlistment, and investing in more targeted advertising
campaigns. There is also a push to increase funding for programs that
improve educational and physical fitness levels among potential recruits.

Last month, the United States Army removed the COVID-19 vaccine
requirement for new recruits. In addition to lowering almost every single
physical qualification for new recruits to pass their initial training,
the US Army has dropped its requirement that recruits must have a high
school diploma or a G.E.D. degree in a desperate effort to attract new
blood into the ranks.

The military is now using white people again in their US military
recruitment ads."
