Looks like the US Army missed its recruitment goals this year
Hasn’t happened since 05. This is all in spite of increasing pay and lowering standards of acceptance

Army pay is still shit, the benefits are still shit, and besides who wants to be made to do menial labor by and around a bunch of closeted frat bois? Unless you live in the worst part of the rust belt there is literally no benefit to joining the army.

I don’t imagine it’s a coincidence that Donald Trumps tough talk scaring people about a potential war started around the same time army recruitment went down

Really if you're joining the military you better fucking be joining the navy or the air force, and even then you better be joining it for access to otherwise incredibly expensive job training. Dude I know who went into the navy ended up becoming a radiology assistant
