#1 Might be time to ramp up the Selective Service again.

#2 /\ The drafting of women, yes, another happy Biden administration diversion.

#3 Red State White boys don't see the point in serving under POS Austin, "White Rage" Milley, or Biden.

#4 Their 'woke' indoctrination is basically anti-American. So, why try defending it. They missed some fundamentals here. Now if you understand the Left, they've always accused our servicemembers as being just mercenaries. From that you get the disconnect and the head scratching why their program isn't working. Watch standards devolve (just like in education). One of those who served in the transition from draft to volunteer army, you're going to bring back the unmotivated, druggies, criminals, social misfits that command will spend 80% of its time dealing with rather than training. Better to have 6 men in a 10 squad who are trained and motivated than fill it in with the destructive distractions that destroy good morale and discipline.

#5 Word trickles down if a high school coach is shit. Suddenly your 4 year playoffs program can't even make a decent starting lineup.

#7 At least, I have memories of winning the Cold War first place medal.

#8 I can see it now....women (if that's what we are calling them these days) who want an abortion will run off and join the military. GI Bill? Nah. Defend the nation? Definitely "nah".

#9 About the Cold War Marathon First Place Medal, still waiting for some piece of tin, not a Certificate.

#10 There is a character named Coke Bottle Glasses in Phase Line Green that is indicative of the McNamara’s Morons stage of the Vietnam Era draft. The Civil War draft obliterated the readiness of solid units like The Iron Brigade and The Irish Brigade. I don’t even want to fathom what type of draftees our current degraded society might poop out. Certainly wouldn’t want woke people on my left and right even in peacetime operations.

#11 The irony is the young folks of today could use some old style boot camp.
