BLUF: "Based on these consultations and on additional discussions with leaders of the White House COVID Task Force, I want you to know that I will seek the President’s approval to make the vaccines mandatory no later than mid-September, or immediately upon the U.S. Food and Drug Agency (FDA) licensure, whichever comes first.
By way of expectation, public reporting suggests the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine could achieve full FDA licensure early next month."

As soon as POTUS approves his request, all military members will be vaccinated by 15 September or immediately upon full licensing by FDA - whichever first. So that answers people's questions about it.
I'm sure there will be exemptions but likely only if you're allergic to anything in the vaccine, potentially if you've had serious adverse reactions and get cleared by medical personnel or find a way to get a religious exemption but that one I bet won't be so easy. Time will tell.

Screw the religious exception. If they don't have a valid medical reason, like the ones you mentioned, they should have to get the vaccine.

Your comment was complete ignorance. Screw religious exemptions? Let's take it one step further then and say screw freedom too? See how ignorant that sounds?

SFC James Hudgers - are you a lawyer? Religious requirements are abridged all the time. A neutral law of general applicability does not have to provide for religious exceptions, see Employment Division v. Smith, 494 U.S. 872 (1990). That has nothing to do with the freedom to practice ones religion. It does have the benefit of protecting the public health.
The next time you want to talk to me about the law, you should think again.
