Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79903414 [link to www.zerohedge.com (secure)] Bloomberg is out with a Monday report chronicling the sad state of affairs the US military has found itself in - notably trying to lure eligible recruits from Generation Z with a cartoon series dubbed "The Calling," which will run on YouTube during May and June. As Bloomberg notes, "The Army—the U.S. military’s largest service—faces a complex set of problems: the eligible recruiting pool into all military services is small; and the newest generation of prospects, Gen Z, has had almost no contact or knowledge of the military, which has largely fought wars abroad since 2001. The Gen Z cohort grew up with technology, the internet, and social media." The videos feature Emma, the self-proclaimed spoiled kid; David, the Hawaiian kid who at first didn’t let himself dream about becoming a pilot; Rickie, who grew up in a religious Haitian family in Florida; Janeen, a singer performing on cruise ships who joined the Reserves with the help of her Vietnam-veteran father; and Jennifer, born to first-generation Dominican immigrants, who worked long hours to make ends meet... Read the rest on Zero Hedge. That's ok. If there's a war that has to be fought, I'd rather go and fight it myself to protect my children, not send the only thing that matters to me in this world into a meat grinder. I'm nearly done with my body anyway, and it doesn't take a lot of strength to pull a trigger. I've always been of the opinion that they should draft old people for war, not children who haven't had a chance to live yet. People don’t have children like they use to so there aren’t a lot of them to send to war anymore. Many have autism now. Or some form of mental disorder from all the vaccines forced on them as infants. The people that are having the most kids are the crack moms on welfare. they dont have to have kids shot up there's always home births. |

Transgenders, and others with sexual alignment differences are now lovingly welcome in the military. Seems the sucky economy and this fact would be driving those without issues into the arms of the military. Unless the whole lot of GenZ’ers are worthless. Hmmm. |

I remember watching this PBS TV show about the soldiers over in Afghanistan, and one of the soldiers was crying during combat because his friend got shot, and he was leaving himself and all the other soldiers around him vulnerable to attack as he cried like a little shit. After watching that I thought to myself, we're in deep shit if our soldiers are like that. I've been in many life and death situations, and the last thing anyone needs is someone crying like a baby. . |

Our countries sold our children's birthright and now our children don't "owe" these countries a damn thing. I've taught my son the only circumstances where he "might" entertain the idea of joining the military is when politicians' children are coming home in body bags, he owes this sold-out country fuck all. Before you get all bent out of shape I served 22 years and wish I fucking didn't. |

He is very patriotic and had a great sense of pride to serve his country. Unfortunately he had a HS issue at 16 and the police were called to the school and a group of boys were arrested. We were transparent with the recruiters at each branch about the issue and each one said no problem. He scored high on the ASVAB had letters of recommendation and was very fit physically as he was going to apply for special forces. In the end the recruiter said sorry but my superior said we can take your application. So here is an example of an overall good kid who was never in trouble and got good grades and one issue as a minor keeps him out of the military. He was very disappointed and bitter about everything in the end. NJman1619 |

I'd say him and his buddies are the top 3% of everything...and that includes getting girls. The number of feminized pusswads, incel neckbeards, and out of the closet gays is off the charts these days. Leaves all the poontang for kids like my nephew. These poor girls are starving for masculinity. Wish I were 30 years younger. lol |
