Germany wants to bring back compulsory military service...

[Missourian]

Should we follow them?

Democrats want war with Russia and to be defenders of Europe and Republicans want more discipline and work ethic among our youth.

This sounds win/win.

Time to put your children and grandchildren where your mouth is Democrats.

Finally we agree, let's be more like Europe

That's a great way to encourage peace and get rid of the illegals who enter. Make them sign a compulsory agreement, send them to boot camp in a distant area and you will see many leave.

I read on a news site; first time in American history, we don't have enough youth that would pass the physical.

During Vietnam they almost always accepted you if you had a pulse.

Having open-heart surgery is a no-go, but they were taking a lot of people that were out of shape.

When I joined I was already in shape, but I got into better shape.

Missourian, I know you are being borderline sarcastic, but when we actually look what is going on, your synopsis is almost going to have to be a reality.

We are no longer able as the USA, to even come CLOSE to fielding enough divisions to fight a 2 front war.

I have a question for LEFTISTS----------->If I as an adversary know, that you can not protect large areas.........and I also know, that unless I attack the USA you will NEVER, ever us nukes, what do our adversaries know! What would you know?

Understand the reality-----------> no war is going to attack the USA to start, because the President would unleash at least part of the nuclear arsenal.

But, what if they attacked Taiwan? What if they attacked South Korea? These are the areas by PROXY, that conventional forces would fight it out, along with others across the globe. None of the NUCLEAR powers would be willing to commit to a nuclear defense, or attack, unless their country was on the line. Either side can lose the war under this scenario, and keep their country.

But, just like Ukraine, we can not field enough divisions, and the Europeans can not field enough divisions and equipment, to stop anything. But they do not have to! As long as it is NOT their country, the Europeans will play lip service, and blame us when satellite countries collapse.

Russia will continue to eat around the edges, without attacking NATO. Europe will do NOTHING, and by the time they realize they are screwed, it will be to late.

European politics suck, especially when run by a bunch of far LEFTISTS!

What if their child is non-binary or gay---do they get shipped off to a work camp in Texas for 3 years?

The Pentagon Gladly Scattered Chicken Feed for Chickenhawks

A Marine I was with got shot in the face while firing a machinegun. The bullet went through his cheek and out his neck.

When the rulers were afraid of working-class GIs, this used to be called a "million-dollar wound." It would get a hero sent home and discharged with full benefits. But that fear had obviously gone away when Vietnam came along.

He was cared for on the hospital ship Repose for 4 months, then got sent back to our battalion. A month later, he got shot in the heart. Dead is the only way they would send us back before our tour was up.
