After completely bending the knee to woke ideology and gutting itself with unconstitutional mandates that forced an experimental and dangerous vaccine, the US Military is taking the hacksaw to the standards that are used to find and train new recruits as the Armed Forces struggle through what some officials are calling the “most challenging recruiting year ever.”
In addition to lowering almost every single physical qualification for new recruits to pass their initial training, the US Army has now dropped its requirement that recruits must have a high school diploma or a G.E.D. degree in a desperate effort to attract new blood into the ranks.
In order to be eligible for service, new recruits will simply have to score a 50 on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test and be of eligible age (18 or older), the US Army explained in an announcement on Thursday. Officials for the service blamed a ‘lack of ability and desire’ among young Americans for the recruiting struggles throughout every branch of the military.
As of now, the Army has reached just 40% of its recruitment goal for the fiscal year ending in October. This is on par with the rest of the six branches, which are all projected to fall short of their recruiting goals in 2022.

Absolutely it ended June 30th. Army pulled back quickly after the huge backlash not only publicly, but internally at the Pentagon. Leaders screamed at how this happened and heads will roll. The timing coincides with traditional summer time promotions and retirements of general officers. Will love to see the outcome. Cannot have or military entering without minimal grade school achievements….REGARDLESS of the poor efforts in recruitment this fiscal year. The years of diminished benefits, pay and the most recent embarassment of the ArmyIgnited military schooling tool has led to severe lower recruitment numbers, hurting our defense abilities.
Heads need to roll!
In many states you can not own a gun until 21, but you can still join the military at 18?
Next they will be back to the old “Go to jail or go in the Army”!
this has always been the army’s policy. you dont need a high school diploma to be cannon fodder!
the dummer the better when they give you your orders to go and die for the political class of heathens!
