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

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

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

Nothing changed except the election. In fact, I received an email last week reporting that the Army is expanding two of its boot camps to handle the increased load of new personnel.

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.

The improved recruiting happened after election day when Biden was on his way out.

That thought never occurred to me once during my service.

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.

SmokeALib is our very own surrender monkey in the Armed Forces.

You musta been in the pre-Obamachrist war machine.

The object of the military was to kill the enemy....back than not be a social experiment.

I served before Obama, and my friends who have remained careerist don't complain much.

It's very simple: Patriotic Americans of military service age now see that the military is no longer a social experiment but is being restored to its primary function.

Many in our family have/do serve in the military.
Never had any of them complain about other peoples sexual choice.
Maybe its because their ALL what we call straight.
SO they have NO interest or obsession's in what gay or other forms are doing.
