Air Force said NO. 12K of them.

Exceptions get you out of the military, ask trump about that.

TDS is strong in you.

 

[progressive hunter]

says a person that never had the balls to serve their country. Typical



Yes it does. What is your point?

how do you know what I've done?? I sure didnt piss on my oath like youre doing,,

You don't understand, pandemics are now deemed more dangerous than any human enemy and are given priority. Military unity and readiness is of the utmost importance. The military cannot be ready if if a huge number of its forces are out sick. If you think Covid is over you're kidding yourself. This thing has mutated so many times it isn't funny and it's not done with us yet. A super killer strain is very possible in the near future. The military is taking all precautions. There are no exemptions, exemptions get you out of the military in this case as they doing most cases.

Fear mongering a little there ? Super killer strain eh ? That could have happened with Ebola and others, so why is Covid any different ?

Stann seems a tad...slow. I doubt it was ever in the military.

We are no longer at war. The Air Force has 330,000 airmen, 12,000 is a drop in the bucket, they won't court-martial them, but they will all be getting dishonorable discharges. Talk about stupidity, ignorance is not Bliss.

More likely they will just comply with orders. Very few of them will be truly committed to their silly cause. Their easy money meal ticket is more important than their political statement.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Brisk bow, click of heels.

what an insult to our military . You ***** that never bothered to serve are so quick to judge. what a waste of oxygen you all are

 

[Harpy Eagle]

how do you know what I've done?? I sure didnt piss on my oath like youre doing,,

it is clear you never served as you do not even understand the basic oath.

only a ******* moron thinks that abiding by my oath is pissing on it.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Stann seems a tad...slow. I doubt it was ever in the military.

 

[Donald H]

wow. Sounds like you WANT this to happen, EAGER for this to happen. What are you? Chinese? Or just a stupid traitor?

Anything that can mentally weaken their resolve of Cold War relations with China is fine with me.
America is at war continuously with some country.
I'm a Canadian.

Good to know in case you have a little too much to drink at Thanksgiving!

The bad part is I cannot drink, and he is a bourbon connoisseur. If he were to get wasted, it would take a small army to move him.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Exceptions get you out of the military, ask trump about that.

What about "Let's go, Brandon!" and his childhood asthma?

 

[Stann]

Hmm.. Seems I Recall Actually BEING in the Military..
Getting out is EASY.
STAYING in is HARD..

Correct, I was in the Air Force during the Vietnam War.

Air Force is first to face troops' rejection of vaccine mandate as thousands avoid shots

Up to 12,000 Air Force personnel have rejected orders to get fully vaccinated against the coronavirus despite a Pentagon mandate and officials say it is too late for them to do so by Tuesday's deadline, posing a first major test for military leaders whose August directive has been met with defiance among a segment of the force.

The vast majority of active-duty airmen, 96.4%, are at least partially vaccinated, according to data from the Air Force. But officials have warned that, barring an approved medical or religious exemption, those who defy lawful orders to be fully immunized are subject to punishment, including possible dismissal from the service or they could be charged in the military justice system.

Mandates are not looking too slick these days.

12,000. Out of 325,000+.

I am not speaking of them at all, that is all you. Why is that your only foucs?

Why does that bother you? You're just tranniephobic. Your fellow Democrats will now put you on a watch list, bigot.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Correct, I was in the Air Force during the Vietnam War.

So you were never really in the military!

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

according to the only people that count it is...nobody gives a **** about your opinion on it

Nobody gives a **** what you think, either. You think they put this mandate in place just because YOU agree??...lol

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Why does that bother you? You're just tranniephobic. Your fellow Democrats will now put you on a watch list, bigot.

I am not bothered at all, just not sure why that is your only focus when it has nothing to do with the topic of the OP. Personally I find your obsession rather fascinating

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Nobody gives a **** what you think, either. You think they put this mandate in place just because YOU agree??...lol

The mandate is no different than the mandate for any other vaccine, including Anthrax

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

The mandate is no different than the mandate for any other vaccine, including Anthrax

The armed forces doesn't have mandates. It issues orders. The anthrax vaccine wasn't an emergency approved vaccine. Anthrax vaccines have been around for decades.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

The anthrax vaccine wasn't an emergency approved vaccine.

And neither is the COVID vaccine any longer. Thus there is no legit reason to refuse it and stay in the military.
