    The vast majority of America's snowflakes are so unfit physically and mentally they would be rejected from serving in the U.S. military today.

    So who are the "1%" quoting General Kelley earlier this past week who are standing post on the wall and destroying Obama's "JV Team" today ? Those white Southern boys and all of those deplorables who live in "Fly Over America" who the Democrats have abandoned.

    And how is this a bad thing?

    We should be working on a AL and drone-centric military, not whether we find enough human bodies to recruit.

    Why would we expect them to be military fit? They aren’t in the military and have no obligation to ever serve.

    The Romans preferred farm boys to the soft city boys for the legions. Some things don't change. Once slaves and huge estates replaced the small farmer people had to move to the cities to survive. And once the public were disarmed they lost the will to fight and had to depend more and more on Germanic recruits. Who will we get to fight our battles if the progressives manage to change our entire culture?

    Taking words said out of context again. The left does that a lot.

    They even change the definition of words they never heard of like "unloaded barrels."

    Rome fell in large part because they "outsourced" much of their Legion's work
    to "barbarians" (Germans, Slavs, Celts, etc.) that didn't always have Rome's interests at heart.

    We have a bit of a luxury because technology makes much of our defense a push button process. But it's dismaying that our military
    is lagging so far behind in recruiting and the pool of acceptable candidates is shrinking every day.

    The effete decadents will not save this nation should it come to that. Only the people they detest and ridicule, flyover people, can do that.
    I'd love to see Obama's Pajama Boy try and save his own ass. That would be welcome comedy relief.

    Did you ever complain about Obama's lack of military experience, or interest at all?

    Berry Obama couldn't have enlisted in the military. By 1979 the standards have been raised and Obama would have been rejected bigly from serving because of the large quantities of illegal, mind alternating drugs Obama had consumed.

    Like most things on this forum, this has turned into a partisan finger-pointing fest.

    Military service aside....doesn't anyone find it concerning that more than two-thirds of appropriately aged Americans are either too fat, too unfit, too sick, too lawbreaking, to drug-abusing, or too crazy to serve in the military? Move past the fact of whether or not they want to be in the military and whether or not you support the military.... It would appear we are becoming a nation of fat, lazy, crazy, drug abusing slobs. It's like Darwinism in reverse.

    Right after WW ll the Greatest Generation was really concerned that their children were becoming Pillsbury Dough Boys and did something about it.

    By the time their sons were in high school 90% could pass the Army's PFT.

    80% qualified being able to be accepted for military service.

    Basically the word came down from the top, every boy and girl attending school will spend one hour every school day in a class called "Physical Education" (PE) running, push-ups, sit-ups, squat-thrust, pull-ups, swimming and playing athletic sports.

    It's a solvable problem if we want to solve it. Just make selective service voluntary, then make the requirements for selective service match the requirements for enlistment. Since selective service is a requirement for federally backed student loans, anyone who plans on using student loans for college will have to make the standard, including weight, drug use, ect...

    It kills two birds with one stone.

    Maybe all these Southern boys will incite a military coup upon the nation in an attempt to bring back sanity.

    The south shall rise again.

    Might cut down on the number of kids getting loans for idiotic majors like black hair weaving and gender studies :p

    It's not even expecting them to be military fit but this does raise some eyebrows about the state of our society as a whole.

    I mean it's seriously not exactly difficult to be "military fit". Military height and weight standards aren't outrageous by any means and that new Army Occupational Physical Assessment Test is something that a teenager could pass by simply being remotely active a couple days a week.

    The military isn't looking for gladiators....a normal kid who went outside and skinned a knee every once and a awhile could pass military recruitment standards...

    This raises some eyebrows to a much bigger question in my opinion. What the hell are kids doing nowadays to where they couldn't pass a military screening test? Most high school level athletics have more stringent physical requirements than US Army recruiting.

    Put the Playstation down and go outside for a change...

    Well it will narrow the field of college students who those who have at least a modicum of self discipline, so the ones who do qualify would be more likely to succeed, so I think they would be less likely to major in nonsense majors like gender studies.
