I would say that wokeness and the hate of all that represents patriotism has hurt military. Let’s get back to focusing on winning wars and staying out of politics. Let’s promote traditional values and inspire real men to want to join and fight for the USA

This is very simple: stop spreading WOKE/INCLUSIVITY GARBAGE!!! Advertise and reach out only to the strong (physically and mentally) and the smart! Immediately disqualify the easily offended, the self-entitled, the politically correct, and those who HIDE BEHIND gender rather than a uniform. Weak/woke/inclusive theologies/ and easily offended types are the first to die on the battlefield. Save their lives by keeping them out of our way! Recruit warriors not symps, not PC/Woke, Not those who only see race! Recruit those who only want to serve our country rather than have our country serve them!

And sending the same troops over and over and over again to combat zones knowing they save money by destroying those repeat combat soldiers. Reads the stats on the units that served insane repeat call-ups and it disgusting, these kids see what happens to vets once they get out. The last 20 years showed them service is thankless, feckless and useless, a big bullshit run and waste of talent in combat zones by watching what happened to family, friends and community members. Now the GOP want to privatize the VA, so WTF, why bother.

We do not need to beef up our current force. Contrary to popular belief, we have ample manpower to protect our nation.

Get some real knowledge

I'm doing my best to give you the respect you seem to refuse to give me, but you have no idea what type of kind of deployments I've done, nor a clue as to my experiences.
If your temperament and ability to communicate on social media is any indication of your ability to lead, I have to wonder if the Manley issues you're struggling with aren't more easily solvable.

Unfortunately there are to huge issues and nobody whats to talk about them.
1. we don't have much of a country left to die for.
2. the current batch of 18 to 20 year olds are about 90 percent pussies.

As I have aged, I have started come to believe we should bring back the draft, we should require every single able body male to serve 4 years of Military service, no exceptions , they can chose the branch of service. they can attend a collage or University of there choice after they complete four years of Military service.
if a male student gets in trouble with the law, or drops out of high school, then has trouble with the law, I believe a judge should give them a choice, attend a military ROTC high School or go to Juvenile Detention.
upon Graduation from the ROTC high school , the Young Male will chose & Enter the Military Service of there choice as a E-3.
those that went to Juvenile Detention will be selected or drafted by one of the services
after they complete there 4 years of Military Service they should have a skill set, they can use in the Private Sector .
they will also have there GI BILL to pay for any trade school or advance education of there choice, if they are happy with there current skill set they can pass there GI bill to there wife or children.
this is just my two cents .
I do not believe it will solve every issue, I do believe it would help a lot of young adult males who are adrift searching for something or trying to find themselves , it will help a lot of young male adults to become Productive young men in todays society.
sadly I do not believe this nation will every bring back the draft.

I use to believe the way you do.
1985 was a much simpler time for me.
sadly the way I see it today,
way to many young American citizens do not know what so many others have given, to defend there God Given Constitutional Rights & freedoms.
todays kids are taught to Hate God, Flag, Country and freedom, along with there fellow American citizens.
taught this from a very early age, When they enter a K-12 Gov Run School , State Run College & University.
I believe the Military will bring them self respect, teach them to love & Respect there fellow citizens, Freedoms, God, Country, Constitutional Republic and freedoms , along with giving them what they are currently screaming for, a free College or University education
Yet I could be wrong , Doubt it, but I could be, about today military service,
