What a Difference a POTUS Makes: Army Recruiting in Jan Hits Highest Level in 15 Years!

[mikegriffith1]

What a difference it makes to have a real leader and to allow the military to get back to being a military and not a social engineering project.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed Tuesday that preliminary recruitment figures for the military show how interest in serving is quickly rising under President Donald Trump.

Hegseth revealed that the Army had its best recruitment totals in 12 years in December 2024, the first full month after Trump was re-elected.

That was followed by the best recruiting numbers in 15 years as of January 2025, the month in which Trump officially took office. . . .

The Pentagon started Biden’s term with a disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, a reality that surely did not give young Americans the confidence to put their lives on the line.

Then, for the next few years, conservative and Christian service members hesitant to take the COVID vaccine were booted from the armed forces, all while top brass like Gen. Mark Milley espoused the tenets of critical race theory to the public.

But the new leadership indeed seems to be inspiring confidence.(MSN)

Young men, especially from small towns, aren't interested in bunking and showering with She-Males and other LGBTQ+ types.

Too much of a culture shock at night in the barracks when homo soldiers start taking each other's buttholes, especially for men who come from normative towns that don't go for that kind of shit.

This improved recruiting began in the latter part of the Biden years, and, hopefully, seems to indicate that it will continue if Trump follows what Biden's people were doing.

1. December 2024: The U.S. Army achieved its best recruiting numbers in 12 years, enlisting nearly 350 soldiers per day.
2. January 2025: The Army hit its best recruiting numbers in 15 years.
3. February 2025: Recruitment continued to surge, with the Army meeting its target of 55,000 recruits for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024.

These recent increases mark a significant turnaround after two consecutive years of missing recruitment targets. The Army has implemented [beginning in 2023] several new strategies to boost enlistment, including focusing on recruiting young adults who have attended college and reinstating service members discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine1.

Plus the watered-down scores "women" need to hit to pass.
Now there is only one standard for everyone.

My 1SG informed me at my first duty station that homosexualiy was not unkinown in the barracks.

I gather it has always been a fact of life in every country's navy.

You are worried about what has always been a fact.

If women can do the job, then you have no worry.

He will just need to lay them off because they are inefficient.

Poor Joe and Kamala, Trump is making them look like amateur losers who did nothing for 4 years.

He did quite a bit because yous guys were bitching and moaning the whole time he was president.

Biden's actions during his reign, like Free Sex change operations for school children and inmates serving time, were things that needed corrected by President Trump.

The obama-biden-harris junta deserves no credit for improved Army recruiting numbers in Dec 2024

Thats part of the incoming trump tide

It began last summer, bub. Let's hope that Trump continues those Biden policies.

Whatever

Trump will claim the credit and he’ll get it

And he deserves it

Because the best numbers in 15 years is an undeniable fact

Then he gets the credit as inflation grows this year.

To a certain extent yes

But lets wait it see if happens first

Can't imagine why Americans would not have wanted to sign up before and serve with a bunch of trannies.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

It's happening now and will continue.

 

[sartre play]

Would be interested in what they were offered (money wise)
and if standards used for entrance were lowered. Any one know the answer?

 

[Mac-7]

It's happening now and will continue.

Its too soon

I was going to post this but searched first and obviously this covers this subject.

This is as I predicted, I have to take credit when I call it, right? It was an additional fear I had if Harris won. Trump has a big agenda and the military will go to war for a guy they know will have the backs of the rank and file and who they also know will not send them into war unnecessarily.
