The Army’s top officials told lawmakers Tuesday morning that the service’s recruiting slump won’t end this year, making fiscal 2023 the second year in a row that the branch won’t meet its recruiting targets.
And while they argue that there’s reason for hope on the recruiting front, they did not sugarcoat the potential impact that a continued personnel shortfall could have on the military’s largest branch.

Who wants to defend a Country they've been taught is racist/ mysogynist / Unfair/ corrupt/...
And who of the few left want to go into a field of Social Justice Warriors having rank and set against them by political Dogma alone. We're soon to have a military more concerned over Emily Post than Manning their post.

1. Going to be hard to recruit women as the Vommand Climate is hostile and only lip service is offered when it comes to sexual assualt.
2. LGBT members will not consider the military given that they may be sent to states where its basically illegal for them to exist.
3. To many males are fat,lazy and stupid. Not to mention substance abuse issues.
4. Possible recruits see cuts to the VA budget and will not risk their health if the Country refuses to treat their conditions after service.
