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.”

Illegals won’t care when they are told to kill Americans DUH
WE NEED TO IMPEACH OBAMA!
So you idiots want a whole bunch of unqualified people in the military? Not everyone in the military even deploys for war. A big chunk are a waste of tax payers money.
THEY DON’T WANT AMERICANS IN THE MILITARY ANY MORE, ONLY CRIMINALS, MEXICANS AND MUSLIMS, OBAMA’S ARMY! AMERICA, DON’T YOU SEE, WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?
they are probably picking illegal aliens over American citizens, and those with particular religious backgrounds, probably Christians are not wanted !
Just got done this morning watching Fox news and a story came up regarding some retired generals were going to the White House to push their agenda that Michelle’s school lunch program should be continued in the school systems whether the kids like it or not as something like 30% of those who don’t get accepted for Applicants into the military are rejected due to weight, Really? I find that very hard to believe, in fact while I’m writing this out I’m laughing out loud. Sounds to me like it’s trash on facebook trying to keep the nasty lunch program alive to back the Mooch. Please, I’ve never known a man or woman who has gone through the 6-8 weeks of boot camp and came home with more body fat than when they left. Number 2-we currently have a president who is doing his darnedest to decimate our military so that we can’t even protect ourselves and that’s also a reason why he wants our guns and to get rid of the 2nd amendment, number 3-I’d believe that the kids today aren’t smart enough to be considered for the military because we are content to pass along kids from grade to grade rather than stand firm when they don’t reach each grades goals so that the kid and their parents won’t be mad at them because they(the teachers) were bad teachers. It takes a parent to stand on a kid to study and learn and a good share of our parents are failing miserably. Lastly, we need to raise what we pay our military, heck they don’t even make minimum wage as it stands now? They may be too stupid to enter but they are smart enough to know what minimum wage is and we all know that most of them think they are worth at least what a B list Actor makes! But, I’m not done! Oh no! We no longer have physical education in most schools. We had it M-W-F and we WORE one piece matching uniforms, I say bring them back make PE an hour and a half long from 7th grade through graduation. It will make their bodies strong, develop muscles, give the PE teacher 20 min of that time to teach about nutrition, not some nut in the White House who has no nutrition degree. The uniforms send them the message that they are there to participate, no participation then they have to make it up after school, period no outs. They get some fresh air, and fun it’s a win win thing.
See if u qualify
They now only accept queers from Rainbow Coalition! .
This only applies to American citizens!! If you are an illegal they will take you right in. Once again Obama fundamentally changing America!!
Under Obombers rule you must be willing to “jump ship” and go over to the other side for a period of five years to qualify
