I came of age in Ronald Reagan’s neon-tinted 1980s, complete with big hair and big action heroes. My role models were people like Arnold Schwarzenegger in Commando, Sylvester Stallone in Rambo, and Carl Weathers in Predator.
Even James Cameron’s Colonial Marines from 1986’s Aliens made militarism cool well before the word “tacticool” (a portmanteau of tactical and cool) was invented in 2004.
These over-the-top action heroes glorified the unstoppable might of the American military. Even Oliver Stone’s Platoon, arguably an anti-war movie, taught me about self-sacrifice.
Draft the wokesters. May be it’ll straighten some of them out

Our military wants only one type of people: Radicalized leftists. Hate filled and anti-American. The government calls it 'transformation'. It's very telling what is being censored. They don't want anyone to know about this.

Of course they censored the Vet - his first-person account of what's going way wrong is an ugly truth that must be face-pillowed asap!

I come from a long line of veterans dating back to the Revolution; I am a veteran myself, Us Navy Vier Nam early 60's. Since the Clinton Administration I have discouraged friends, family and my children to stay as far from the military as possible.

I tried to post the article to Facebook. They said it looked like spam and blocked it. I'll be glad when we get our freedom of speech back as protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution. Justice is coming.

I know my Gen Z son has no love of the military, and we come from a military family. He has no desire to fight for Dick Cheney and John Bolton types who seek to plunge the world into Armageddon to enrich themselves and solidify power. He has no desire to mercenary himself out to the Globalists which is all the US military is now.
And anyone who knows history knows this Ukraine insanity is WWI all over again, a powderkeg of egos and evil and a pointless waste of vital, young, good human life.

I spent 23 years in the USAF and ANG. I would now NEVER recommend the military to a soul. They are no longer trained to fight and survive. They are trained to use the "correct pronoun" and how being white is a crime against humanity. I came into the military during the last 2 years of President Peanut. I lived in substandard housing, and had to work a part time job to support my family. I qualified for food stamps which I refused. All this as a active duty airman. Thank God for President Reagan. He changed live for the military for the better. Unfortunately, behind Reagan, we had some of the worst Presidents (Bush 1, Clinton, Bush 2, Obama and Biden) who used the military as a diversion to the hide their corrupt actions. POTUS DJT was the only real President we have had since Reagan

Also, the reason they are going woke is so they can turn the military on the US civilians who they consider a threat. Do you think the military under a President like DJT would attack its own people. Didn't think so. Be fully aware. Things are going to get very interesting.

I did 25 in USAF and my sons joined the USMC inspired by 911 attacks. I will grill my younger son over Christmas leave to see what is actually going on at unit level. He is currently in Japan. I would not advise anyone to join via academy or recruiter at this time. I don’t know how we will cleanup this mess with the diversity push of Biden. I forsee the VA going broke treating the Woke for mental issues related to gender BS. What a mess they have intentionally created.

I had to serve in Vietnam because of the draft and had to take orders from some morons. I couldn't wait to get out but in retrospect, I'm glad and proud I went. Now with the new system in place there are many more morons and I wouldn't recommend any white people to join unless they want to be overlooked for promotions and discriminated against. Charging a gun emplacement by orders of an inept sergeant who got there not by merit but by skin pigmentation is something to be avoided.

I did 20 starting in 80. This woke foolishness did not happen overnight. It came on gradually, starting in the 70's with the racial harangue, then with the women thing in the 80's. Lots of extra slack was given to women and minorities, and often NCOs and officers were reluctant to discipline either group. They begged people to join the NCO club because nobody went there. A few brave people mentioned not liking the constant soul music playing there and were told they played what people wanted to hear. All a woman had to do was hint at a complaint and everyone broke their backs to appease her. Officers would enthusiastically support every social program to come down the pike, until it was rescinded. Then they hated it all along. I'm sure nothing has changed.
I can not in clear conscience recommend the military as a career path for anyone anymore.

No wonder this vet’s post was censored. It is a truth bomb that scares the left. The MSM cannot let truths like this out. Remember, the Emperor is fully clothed. Don’t believe your lying eyes. Left wing lunatics are in control for the moment.

Testimony from a 30-year+ Retired Colonel USAF. I've encouraged my grandson a forward ice hockey player to go into the Military to shape his life. On his own he decided to enlist since he didn't go to college. He went down to the Army and Navy recruiters. The Army had him take the ASVAB test. They were offering up to 50K bonuses. All his scores were so high they said what job do you want? Next came MEPS followed by a medical exam and review. They now required 7 years of medical records going back to when he was 12 and four military moves. There were things in his medical record such as an injury to his shoulder from hockey, hyperactivity, Allergies, etc. They all showed no treatments or medication given. This was caused somewhat by the schools recommended he be treated for various things like hyperactivity with drugs. The Army was requiring x-rays, missing records (they claim) or medical evaluations at his expense. He had been Vaxed too. Meantime all the news about what was going on in the Military. The grandson likes to debate people on politics, and it turns out he was a conservative. It's hard to argue with a walking encyclopedia that follows the news through his computer and Iphone. He was told to throttle it if he decided to go in the military. Along the way and he decided not to go in. No surprise there. It's a shame he would have been the 7th generation in the military starting from the Civil War and he is part native American. So much for Diversity and Believing in.........

#11 DH and about 12 other guys were in the Missouri National Guard, 35th Engineers Battalion based out of Jefferson Baracks. They had all served together for many years. In the 80's, females (I believe all were colored) joined their unit. When it came time to load and unload for weekend trips and summer camp, ladies were nowhere to be found. There were other issues as well. When it came time to re-up, guess what those 13 well trained guys did, the ones who knew how to build bridges and tear them down. They got out

“While y’all are playing drag, we will defend the Country.”
I visited Fort Sumter yesterday and the ranger gave a talk on the beginning of the Civil War. He asked us why a young man in New Hampshire who had never traveled out of his state, never met anyone from the South and never seen a slave would sign up to walk hundreds of miles to risk his life in that war. The answer was - to preserve the union, and the realization that what we call American Exceptionalism, truly is exceptional and was worth fighting for.
I pray that is still true but I fear that our young people have become too comfortable and too complacent with no appreciation of what this country really is. Those who defend America will be those of us who remember what America used to be just a few short years ago.

What will be very interesting is when these woke military turds will have to be deployed to a hot zone and fight. I wonder how many will desert, cry, call their Congressman, and refuse to go.

#11 I did not like. I’m one of those WAC’s turned just solder. I enlisted in’79, then first basic with men. I did NOT get special anything! I trained and did PT, and passed basic & AIT on my own merit! Did my job everyday Medic 6 yrs. Got out, then reenlisted as mechanic for another 6. Now this 60 y.o. female passes on to my younger family DON’T join any branch. Downslide started under Clint0n. Woke BS. Managers not leaders and such nonsense. I remember all of my training and I am still ready to defend to this day!
