Give it up, Taz. I don't think very many people care about it in a negative way,

Yes. They have a guide they will use as they see fit. You can opine and whine, but you don't shine.

It is more than a guide, it is a Regulation.
If you can't understand the table of contents, about page 45 onward is what you should check through.
You are dumber than an FNG.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

You don't understand with in the rules and regulations, certain commanders have certain rules and rights to act.

This is one of them.

• Junior troops would see a 5.5% pay bump under a Senate plan unveiled Wednesday, setting up a clash with a House proposal to give enlisted members a significantly larger salary boost. Under the Senate Armed Services Committee's draft of the annual defense policy bill, service members of all ranks would get a 4.5% pay raise next year.

Military recruitment is at an all time low.

When the economy is good, enlistments are down.

 

[Failzero]

Then

When the economy is good, enlistments are down.

Then why were Desired Recruit goals down during Carter ?

 

[Blaster]

When the economy is good, enlistments are down.

The problem is that the economy is bad.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

No, it is not. Enlistments would be much higher if it were bad.

So a gay soldier can wear a pride patch during Gay Pride Month

Can I get you a tissue?

Hard to believe every branch can’t meet their recruitment goals and had to lower their goals just to say they were met.

 

[Weatherman2020]

When the economy is good, enlistments are down.

Economy was good in 1941.
And in the 1980’s.

But we had leadership then.

Our military accepts gays

Not so much Oathkeepers, two percenters

That is discriminatory

That is discriminatory

III%ers & Oathkeepers are Patriots not Commies

Gays, more likely, are more patriotic than Oath Keepers or MAGA,

It has everything to do with it. Nobody wants to risk their lives knowing that they depend on mental cases.

A very small percentage of the Military are homosexual

What is hurting recruitment is high wage civilian jobs, young people not attracted to the military
