    Yes, but they sure don’t have qualified recruits anymore.

    You don’t pass your PT tests, no benefits, but you don’t get to go “oops I quit” either. So you wind up with situations like this - even unfit soldiers can’t be replaced these days

      Perhaps because you would have to be pants-on-head stupid to sign up to shoot your fellow countrymen. In the span of a few months the Trump administration has completely ruined the reputation of what used to be a universally noble and respected job.

        Ah yes blame the people not the system. Aside from what you said being incredibly foolish, near none of these people signed up in the last 6 months. The heart of the lower enlisted rn are people who signed up for college benefits during the Biden administration, or are sergents trying to quietly finish out their careers to get the retirement benefits that’re the only thing worth committing more than 6 years of your life to the service for. You quit before that 20 year mark, you get shit, and if you think a career in the national guard pays well, well I have a ASVAB test ready for ya, you’re just the type lmao
