I don't believe that for a minute

I bet it's accurate. FY YTD through 2 quarters.
FYI, accession are people shipping to training, not enlistments. Enlistments minus attrition in Delayed Entry Program equals accessions.
I was voluntold to do a 3 year recruiting stint during my career and it's noticeably different depending on who the Commander In Chief is.

Why? Do you really think there are that many trannies? Do you not realize that men in battle have to depend on each other to survive.
Do you realize there are many that have wanted to serve that couldn’t due to a medical condition? The Army can’t be a combat force and a roving treatment center. Medics need to concentrate on the wounded. Not giving hormone shots. Sorry Jim, hold on. I’ll get the morphine over there after I give Gerald/Geraldine his/her hormones.

People I personally know in military feel rejuvenated with Trump vs. sleepy Joe. Trump has pride for America and advocates for us in ways the Dems never do

Can't believe I was about 20 years too late to sign up for the fricking SPACE FORCE
Posted on 4/27/25 at 2:14 pm to OU Guy
Guess this is good if the war in Ukraine is going to continue and Iran vs Israel kicking off...
Posted on 4/27/25 at 2:15 pm to OU Guy
Thank you new recruits. We may be depending on you someday soon to help save this country

They are letting some real dogshit through. We’ve had 3 people arrive to us in the past few months that should have never made it out of tech training and likely shouldn’t have been allowed in in the first place. I don’t know it’s an accident either.

Those would be applicants recruited under Biden and I doubt you have any new guys who went thru boot and training in 3 months. Or you’re just a moron and saying you’re incompetent in realizing new troops and the time it takes for them to mold into a decent person in a unit.

Accept you have no idea what you’re talking about, starting with the fact that the chart reflects fiscal year numbers, beginning October of 24. Sooo, tf are you talking about 3 months?
