Retention and Recruitment Crisis

Totally! If they would have measured "funny and witty," I would have been off the chart.

The guy at MEPS said, "You're either going to be strong, or you're going to be smart. I can tell you're strong." But I guess I did okay. Just don't ask me in which direction gears turn if a belt is pulled in a certain direction.

Off scale low isn't something that should be boasted of.

If you believe Reddit threads (and it seems many here do), this dude’s command is on the hunt trying to track down the MP who took this pic and posted online with the intent of ‘shaming’ this Sailor.

I 100% believe that. Remember too the Navy recently did away with...basically any incentive to pass a PT test. Hell yeah, they are going after whoever posted that picture and not Petty Officer Neck Fat. Stone Cold Creamery Austin. Wyatt Burp.

That guy has swallowed a lot of aggression...

I bet if you shaved his head he'd have a pack of hot dogs on the back of his skull. Buddy carry drills with him last year resulted in 3 bilateral inguinal hernia surgeries in the command. He could jump on a grenade and only lose a shirt size or two. They tried to run VBSS' with ole' boy, but the caving ladders became caved in ladders and the target vessel had to counterflood because of the list.

I guess I'm done with fat shaming open mic night. Hooyah Navy.

I haven't vetted these numbers but believe them to be true. Pretty crazy...and not necessarily in a good way:

It's amazing how motivated people get about their military when they think they may have to start using it.

Historically, no one wants to invade Canada (well, I mean, no one wants to invade Canada *now* ;) ). Everyone wants to invade Poland.

The Commie Cunts need to force out anyone with experience and any bit of patriotic blood left.

Except us, we like gutting ours the more we like to use it.

The Chinese and Indians and Indians are making a good run at invading Canada.

Population jihad, one of three groups will win.
Chinese or Muslims are my bet.

Yup. It's amazing that after 400 years of leaving the garbage of the old world behind liberal traitors welcomed it in. The solution to this and many of the West's problems will not be easy or peaceful.

This is a podcast but felt this is the best place for this. It's an excellent discussion.

For reference who, Mark Norman is.
Failed prosecution of vice-admiral Mark Norman cost government more than $1.4 million

52% serviceable equipment for the Army...

Trying to boost Latvia contingent to 4300 troops, moving training to Latvia... it's only a matter of time before we have a "full" brigade there permanently and they bring back 4 CMBG from Lahr. If they can recruit the bodies...

Don't worry, everything will still be "green" on the unit status report.
