The days are gone when just about anyone could walk into a recruiter’s office and sign up for the military – whether it be to help pay for college or get themselves ‘straightened out’ for some personal issue they have or trouble with the law.
The Pentagon estimates that only about 25% of applicants are now qualified.
“Five years ago, if a kid had gotten caught with a (marijuana) joint in his car, that person would be pretty much a shoo-in” to enlist under a waiver, states Army recruiter Terrence Hoard. “Now you’re not authorized.”

When we are facing growing challenges from a real adversary we decide it is now time to cut our military? We have kept larger forces to face foes who weren’t formidable. Now when Russia is on the rise as well as secondary tyrants we cut back. We weren’t ready for WW! or WW2 and it cost us dearly. Now is not the time to disarm. My only thought is that the government is trying to lower our military capabilities to an extreme level. Then when the coming international crisis hits we will have no other option than to offer illegal aliens amnesty if they join the military. This must be what they are trying to force. The government has been getting too much resistance on this plan with normal situations. Therefore they have use covert backdoor plans. If we need to quickly enlarge the military we have always pulled in the poor and disenfranchised. The immigrant has always been the first ones we conscript into the ranks to fill our armies. The poor will be brought in but with inexperienced leadership we will not have a strong balanced military.
Let Washington know that we all see through this insane desperate plan. Tell them to keep us strong and stop playing political games. I don’t want another Vietnam do you?
