It’s time to initiate the draft. Most of the young people today need to learn discipline, duty, honor and respect. Get rid of the woke culture politics.

The majority cannot pass the drug, weight, PT, and arrest record tests today. It's a nation of failed parents. What defense do they deserve, when we have an open border and are funding the defense of Ukraine and Israel with billions of dollars instead?

Add social media to the list. Everything is fubar. I hate to get political here, but Harris is a progressive left liberal promoting socialism and woke culture. She’s a liar, trying to pass as a moderate to get elected. 4 years of her and it will be far worse than the Biden years. Probably unrecoverable.

Unfortunately these days in America, there’s no fix for it unless you can take the standards back to pre 1980. Today men are women and women are men so unless we put GOD first and dispose of all Democrats there’s No fix

Thousands of veterans would love nothing better than spending time recruiting! Some would do it for free, and some could use the money. I would love to be involved as it would help reduce the pressure on current duty soldiers on recruiting assignments.

Poor support for all branches of service across the USA, to many civilians don't have a clue and could care less and a lot of the blame for that goes to our poor on facts news media across the board. We seam to have the dollars to fund many useless projects and several foreign country's, make the pay worthwhile, especially for combat ready units.

Stop fighting a thousand small wars all over the world, young kids are wise to the propaganda and Military-Industrial-Congressional Complex that sees soldiers as fodder doing the dirty work to protect Oligarchies..

Bring back the draft and get these kids causing trouble with guns, stealing etc: off the streets. Just maybe they will cleanup their act with the help from our DI's across the board. Coming from experience as a bad boy and getting kicked out of school, just maybe the draft update would be a good thing.

The young in the U.S. nowadays only care about partying, protesting and living off their parents for as long as possible. They have no desire to work or to be serious about getting an education, so the military to them is too strict so they can't do what they want when they want. Taking orders is taboo to them.

Young generations are being taught by all these evil people to hate America instead of loving or serving Her. Only way to fix it is going to take another generation to reverse the effects: Get all your conservative friends to the voting stations-- and make sure they get their friends to vote, and so on down the line. Get the ****ing activists out of the white house, out of congress and yes, even some of our freaking generals need to get BOOTED. Austin, Milley.. all of them. The buck stopped there.
