#4 What, not enough reservists, either?

Call-ups for those with hip pocket orders no longer an option?

#5 Almost every military in the world is dealing with this and future generations will be even less inclined to join. I bet in a couple decades the US goes to a limited draft again.

#8 Carter - draft resistance amnesty
Biden - college debt amnesty

Yeah, who do you think will comply with a draft which will definitely not be DEI?

#9 Just for grins, I checked the USAF Retiree Services page.
(Not that any war would last long enough for me to be selected for return to active duty.).

Although the Officer criteria are pretty well spelled out, the Enlisted criteria are a surprise that may only be revealed by a recruiter.

As SSGT Clayton once told us, "My recruiter lied to me too."
