For the first time in its history, the U.S. Army is offering its largest bonus ever for new recruits who commit to six years of service — $50,000.
Up until now, the Army has offered a maximum bonus for new recruits of $40,000.
Maj Gen. Kevin Vereen, head of Recruiting Command, told The Associated Press that the Army hopes the increase in bonuses will help attract new talent amid a challenging landscape for military recruiters. Vereen said the pandemic has made it difficult to recruit both in schools and at public events, making the competition for getting qualified recruits in the door much more difficult.

This is such a clever scam.
Set really high bonuses for MOS's that have really high failure rates upon entry.
That way, when they fail SF selection, RASP, etc... not only do they NOT get the bonuses, but the Army gets to select their next MOS based on "needs of the Army".
SF contracts are the best way to fill up all those Infantry and Cook slots.
