Woke Policies Have Consequences

“Multiple in our family left the military to remain jab-free. Their religious liberties were trampled on, they were pressured and harassed by command. Finally out after years in limbo while being prevented from training, deploying or advancing rank! After lifelong support of the military and generations of Veterans, we are DONE and would never recommend it to anyone as a career path under current leadership failure. Enlist at your peril!!”

“Another Marine veteran commenting here - I have friends nearing retirement in multiple branches and they send me screenshots of “programs” and “initiatives” that are nothing but complete wokeness."

“It's not just recruitment. It's also retention. The backbone of the US military has always been the middle and senior NCOs. They're leaving the services in larger numbers than in the past and that's actually more damaging than the recruitment problem. These were your experienced people who also taught to new recruits. Few of them want anything to do with a woke military.”

“A high ranking friend recently told me the increasing pressure to be politically correct was a burden & distraction he hated.”

“Please remember there are still Patriots in the US military, me being one of them. My age is 42, and I'm a part of a generation that believes in this country. I'll fight with all my might. Once my generation is gone from the military, I'm not sure what the future holds. We have taken God out of our ranks. Now we worry about hurting peoples feelings and accepting gender transformation. I will stand up for my God. 3 more years, and I'm out. I’ve heard of military presentations about how we are to accept transgender within our ranks. If I'm asked to watch and sign off on accepting transgender, they'll need to start processing my discharge. My God comes first. They will lose a patriot willing to die for our freedom.”
