The Army raised its maximum enlistment bonus from $40,000 to $50,000, and now offers new recruits up to $10,000 for showing up to basic training in 30 days. The Navy is right in step with the Army, offering incentives of up to $50,000 to qualified recruits depending upon the program and position sought. Even the Air Force, which usually never offers enlistment incentives due to receiving ample applicants, is seeing warning signs in their recruitment efforts. . Covid isn’t the only obstacle to gaining worthy recruits. - Obesity, criminal records, cultural changes, and competition have not helped either. . But all of this is just ground clutter for the recruitment process, as the gorilla in the room is the woke agenda now infecting our military. . The Army recently ran lesbian wedding ads, which is pushing away the recruits it needs, young patriotic men and women from traditional backgrounds. - Then you have the mandatory transgender pronoun training presentation “Policy on the Military Service of Transgender Persons and Persons with Gender Dysphoria,” which is part of a larger push by the Biden administration to make the military more welcoming to transgender people. - “The Army allows transgender soldiers to serve openly,” states the presentation, which is tailored for Army commanders and leaders. - “An otherwise qualified soldier shall not be involuntarily separated, discharged, or denied reenlistment or continuation of service on the basis of gender identity.” |
