The fact the Coast Guard spent four million dollars per recruit on a NASCAR campaign is unreal. Yet after they've served they'll be lucky to get a free massage.
It was National Guard not Coast Guard, Coast Guard doesn't have that kind of budget. Never had, never will.
I think I read somewhere that the number of active duty Coast Guard is less than the number of New York City police officers.
Coast Guard has something like 50k active, reserve and civilian workforce and NYPD is like 55k
You know the Army is in trouble when they offer free college tuition these days and people still aren't interested.
Isn't that another of the things to cut under p2025?
When has the GOP ever taken the heritage foundation seriously? At best, they just copy parts of the gop to help imply a causality
It’s kinda crazy, that they are spending this much and still can’t attract soldiers.
I never hear anything but bad stories about being in the military, so I’m not surprised that nobody wants to join.
When I was growing up, Military Vets in my mind were like 60+ yos who have a lifetime of wisdom.
Today, half the military vets at my job are around 30 years old, and while proud to serve, commiserate over how fucked up it was.
Where the other half are around 45yo and complain about how difficult it is to get support and strongly tell their children not to join the military.
Ya pretty accurate.
Government is known not to support their troops after they return. Parents are telling their kids to not join and now it’s finally being seen in enrollment numbers.
