• Is a US Military Draft...
Teach a child to hate their country, I'll show you an adult that won't fight for it.
@@evilchaperone How about… lie to the children about the history of their country( like slaves immigrated and were willing servants). I’ll show you a generation that doesn’t have faith in it.
Grrrreat point!!
Well stated !
@@evilchaperone Were the children taught to hate their country, or were they misled regarding the history of their country? Then upon learning the truth, they no longer had faith in or felt “patriotism” for their country. So the statement should be…
Lie to children about their country, I’ll show you a child that doesn’t trust their country.
@@evilchaperone Where are the son of the leaders? ¿Do they go to war? 😂 now you know the same people who make wars don’t believe in the cause ¿why? Because they don’t believe in the war therefore they don’t sent their children to the war VS old days ( when the real leaders where in the front line of the war = the believe in the cause. Fight the wars for your masters slav3 🤣
World war 2: Fought for a future to thrive in.
World war 3: fighting for a future to barely survive in.
Absolutely true, back then America was great, now it feels like we haven’t had a good president since Theodore Roosevelt. America today is so shitty, the government wonders why we can’t be as patriotic anymore.
@@aphrodite7194 More like preventing Russia and China from overruling the U.S. no country or ruler profits from war.

@@CrayonMan731living under a rock are we lol ever heard of the military industrial complex?
We need to stop fighting for other countries when ours is falling apart
its because of people like you that its falling apart. two birds one stone
@@chrhadden That range shoots both ways.
@@chrhadden It's impossible to cook your own pie when you have a finger in everyone else's.
In other words: We can't fully address issues and take care of ourselves while our allies still require us to be everywhere all at once all over the world. That's why their current upscaling of their own industrial complexes will be of help, it'll let the U.S. focus on US.
@miemsliva4464 Did you know there was a meeting between Israeli and evangelical religious leaders in NY a few weeks back where they bloated about that very point and basically spelled out that the plan is, war to clense Hamas, Hezbollah, then Iran while waving around a solid gold ark as proof that God was willing it. They also had one of trumps former aids there who boasted a lot of trumps middle east policies, he planted and encouraged trump to pursue
We need to stop fighting for other countries when they won’t fight for themselves.

you will chump you will😉
That’s the spirit
Waaaaaaaaaa
@@Berek4167well, somebody’s tired. Do you need a nap?
I don't care about you freedoms
My dad was in Vietnam 68-72, wounded 4 times, only received 2 Purple Hearts for them. Last time he was wound, 4 of the 7 guys with him were killed. Told me to not join, told me he was stupid. I will fight for our safety, I will not fight for our military industrial complex when bipartisan politicians lined their pockets
EXACTLY
Yep. Dodge the draft and become potus. Like Trump and Clinton
@@Mrwhomeyou They force you to the option that you young folk will be the same option that they gave your dad. Fight or go to prison and have a federal crime on your record for the rest of your life. Maybe you should be cautious who you vote for because you're current President was the one who insisted that Ukraine be part of NATO and keeps the war going by refusing to negotiate a peace deal and continues to send them weapons
Thank you for saying truth I say same thi g as you I see it and mitary complex is bunch of rich bullies that want total control of the world
Exactly what my Korean war veteran father told me in 84.
Gen Z here. I’ll feed the algorithm for you and throw my perspective in. I think a big factor not many people talk about that turns otherwise patriotic people like myself away from the military is nobody wants to fight for a politician’s stock portfolio. I grew up around spec ops guys from Seals to CCT’s who have encouraged me to join for the positives you’ve highlighted and discouraged me for the reason I brought up. Disregard my civilian opinion, but I think it’s a huge reason people don’t join. Personally I didn’t, mainly for that reason. I’ve also been in an active shooter confrontation, didn’t fold but would rather not experience that again especially for a cause I have reservations about. It’s a growing sentiment that none of the wars we’ve fought since WW2 have been for the American people and the next war sure as hall won’t be.
Refreshing to see a GenZ say something like this.
@@mattfransen1551 The only entities benefiting from wars are the politicians and the defense contractors. It’s hard for the general public to support a war or military service when you hear GWOT veterans openly talking about how that whole war was a lie.
I'm glad some truth is still alive 🙏
Well said
If world war 2 was a war that was worth fighting for the American people and it's government, then why is there some wars where countries have divided government and start inperializing allies as one of the same reason why the u.s engaged into war with another country while defending it's country alliance. The u.s got involved with ww2 because of the pearl harbor attack and France being invaded by Germany. 2,403 deaths for pearl harbor attack, 9/11 twin tower attack had 2,996 deaths and the u.s went to war in Afghanistan. Pretty much majority of the time the u.s will go to war when it is necessary.
I ain’t dying for Israel. Period.

@@evagandarra4013
Hell, look at the Civil War..
Many of the Confederate soldiers were in their early teens. Union troops were also quite young - but, of course, had far greater manpower resources than the South.
Soldiers in Vietnam were also quite young - at least the ones in the jungles doing the fighting.
I would put the average age of an 11 Bravo (combat infantry) in Vietnam at 19.
Very, very young to fight and die for nothing, right? 🇺🇸
I’m a gen z. I refuse to go to foreign country to fight a war that was wanted by rich old people. Our lives shouldn’t have to pay the price for their greed. Politicians should go fight the wars they want so badly. I bet you their grandkids will be exempted from the draft. Sickening.
@@nothisispatrick9778 no draft now will there ever be one UNLESS a TRUE major national/Global emergency takes places, as in/e.g. a foreign enemy ground invasion of sacred mainland US. Otherwise -NO
Listen to the song, 'Fortune Son' by Creedence Clearwater Rival
It's about exactly what you just said
We were saying exactly the same thing 50 years ago, and now it's your turn
Good luck
You should research how many politicians already served.
Suck it up, we did, we served, now you want to cry, you are up buttercup!!!😂😂
@@brendanpelly213umm how about no. Men are getting passports now more than ever. As long as you have one before the draft is reactivated you can just leave. Thousands if not a few hundred thousand simply walked out of Russia when Ukraine started before they linked they're military conscription system to their customs and border security. Then anyone who hadn't served their two years couldn't leave. Id rather go to prison though then war until I'm offered a better deal with the laws and marriage system
No one wants to fight for this government.
That’s the great thing about the draft, you wont have a choice.
@@ValhallaVFTthey’re going to learn!
I'd go to jail first before fighting bidens war. And me and my family put in our work from the Civil War to island hopping on the pacific ( grandpa) to crew chiefing a gunship in nam( my father). Me and bro in Iraq but my bro went to Afghanistan and then many more countries in embassies because he went to msg school. MY family has always been pro military. My gramps and father weren't drafted. Were already signed up for the corps. My first cousins went ahead and retired after 20 when biden started his shit. They had the right to retire but wanted to stay in. Just not gonna back bs policies and play new word games pushed by the libs. I'll die for my country. Fuk this government. We don't need drafted, we volunteer. I beleive in the draft and conscription. Wouldn't hurt anyone to do atleast 2 years.
Ding ding ding! Problem is that doesn't matter. I bet we'll see a massive increase in ppl converting to "pacifist" religions in the near future. Also, the amount of Gen Z kids that'll be DQ'd is likely huge: the stats on how many of them are prescribed drugs for mental health reasons are staggering. Once that becomes more common knowledge, I bet we'll see a massive spike in the amount of ppl going to psychiatrists to get diagnosed. That, and their fitness level will be abysmal on purpose. Trying to draft Gen Z is gonna do far more harm than good, particularly to Gen Z.
@@ValhallaVFTwe always have a choice because we have guns.
They won’t go and as a veteran myself I don’t blame them. I would never serve in this woke incompetent military.
Do nothing, resist, lie, never show your full hand, pretend then back stab. Understand? Good
Do they really think that folks are going to be motivated to fight on after being forced against their will to fight for some rich folks???
And fighting for no reason these words could easily be stopped, but we have to pay our military industrial complex so about money for people, but not for the kids that get killed. You just don’t comply.
Fight for Israel or resources in Ukraine which neither benefit the average American citizen
Do you think this is some new thing in History?
You need to read more. Omg!
@@SplendidFactorIt being more widespread knowledge is why so many people take the stance
You’re exactly right. The government has done a terrible job of incentivizing military service.
Thats the thing it shouldn’t be compulsory all throughout history there have been those that have stepped up it also happens that the standards are higher these days due to our “enlightened” society
@@jwithersooon Very true
Well one thing that doesn't help with retention is congress has been eroding our benefits outside of a better GI Bill in the 24 years since I joined. There use to be so many different things that added up, that no longer add up as a benefit. I just heard a guy yesterday talking about getting out at 17 years because he hadn't been promoted to E-7 and has been eligible for over 7 years, and thinks he can get a $130,000/yr computer job if he got out. Use to once you went over the 10 year mark, most road it out. Now that we are so interconnected by the social media and internet, people know how much it can be better in certain jobs and branches and less stress in some civilian equivalent jobs. More people are willing to give up the pension and medical because of the BS by some of varying levels of leadership dropping the ball. I know until I hit 17, I was very close to punching out numerous times. But here I am still 24 years later. There's just something about being able to call it quits any time and you'll have that retirement, and every day you stay, the points keep adding up. But I have the old retirement system and not this new trash where you have to rely on the stock market to have a decent retirement. That's the thing with gambling--might end up better, but you better hope you're not retiring when the market crashes and wipes out your earnings.
then they'll simply have to quickly & effectively have to do a much BETTER job
@@fredcollins8919 there’s a lot of things the government would need to address. But that would require politicians to come together regardless of political background. Veterans deserve better care. Issues like suicide, drug and alcohol abuse, psychiatric problems, physical ailments, etc plague the veteran community. The issues run deeper than that though.
If a woman wants to be a Green Beret, SEAL, Ranger, etc, fine, but the standards must not be lowered in order to accommodate their physiology.
Agreed. Women do not have the physical capability to navigate SFs. These guys are BIG. No woman could compete with that. Men and Women are NOT equal. We are different and we need to work with what we have.
Sounds like you don't agree with the comment. Yes men and women are different, no one disagrees with that. Physiologically only few women could make the standards probably. BUT if they make the standard, let them do the job @@user-cc5od3zk4p
The women who want to do that are only doing so to make a statement.

@@basedbossbabyvibez5097 You guys are already being pre automatic registered for the draft.

Most of Gen Z will just say, "No,F off". And take jail over being forced to fight.

Maybe gen z and my generation SHOULD let this country get rolled over, any chance is better if our own elders are like this.😊
You shouldn't control what people do with their lives because you think "they have a lack of discipline."
Little angry Marxist democrat has found the comment section.
@@ValhallaVFT Okay, King George III.
@@ValhallaVFT forcing people to go to war and make them see actual hell and people dead against their will doesn’t make them hard nor warriors. "ValhallaVFT,” it’s just going to make more casualties and mental health issues, and calling people that disagree with you “commies” said a lot about you. Do you value human life or their family’s?
@@ValhallaVFTAre you sure it isn't marxist to be forcing eveyone to do the same thing for the sake of the whole and learn discipline, to be part of a herd like what the military is?
Obviously it is all you are, all you can muster is the brainwashed response of "angry little marxist" while the other person is against an idea you would consider communist in ideology.
Not to even mention your total lack of acknowledging that actual comment with the only seeming reason being a "lack of discipline", as if forcing a bunch of Gen Z into boot camp would do anything but make them not cooperate even more. What a clown of a green beret, sure you weren't actually a crayon muncher?
@@ValhallaVFT I still have my draft card I got in 1974 taped to my US Constitution. I didn't serve when I turned 18 because military operations when winding down and the draft had been cancelled. But I don't have the arrogance to say I could have served but most everyone else is unqualified and can't handle it. If that was true we wouldn't be able have the strongest military in history.
Not doing it. This is the hill we'll die on.

@@blackhawk_1317 Okay, picture the stonetoss comic about a "burger advertisement."
Except replace the ad with OP's statement, and the employee asking about "sales" with your reply.
With this comes my reply to you:
"Protest?"
I volunteered after 9/11 and spent 6 years active Marines.
After I got in I volunteered for flight duty as an aerial gunner in helicopters. I remember my interview and they basically said that this is hazardous duty and it’s dangerous. I said sign me up.
I flew in combat in OIF and it was 110% the hardest thing I have ever done. Mentally and physically. Everyone on our crew was a volunteer. Even on the worst of days, everyone wanted to suit up and get some. I would say, especially on the worst days, when the grunts were in contact or needed a dustoff, or we had to insert dudes to snatch some bad guys…. my guys brought their A game every time.
I can’t imagine going downrange with a bunch of people who don’t want to be there.
That said, my wife’s grandfather was drafted and sent to the Korean War. He served as a machine gunner in the 24th and 45th infantry division, and spent 16 months in combat. He was probably one of the toughest and most patriotic dudes I ever met. But I think that was a different era. A better era.
Semper Fi🇺🇸
Rah
Damn right about that better era, we all miss the greatest generation of men and women and they’re soon going to all vanish from the world as the currently worst generation is all the young boys and girls. Emphasis on boys and girls, gen Z are hardly men or women at all.
Semper Fi
All badass brother, God bless
I think the part about the whole situation is the fact that my generation truly and genuinely believes this not a nation worth fighting for anymore. We can sit here and chat about gen Z all day but we’ll never get anywhere if they don’t talk to us. This generation sees the impossibility of getting a good home, it’s not abnormal to have 10-30+ sexual relationships by the age of 25-30, so they don’t have a wife to fight for or home to protect. They get taxed up the ass, the inflation and interest is drowning them financially. Healthcare, goodluck. Education cost is predatory. Infrastructure is falling apart at the seems. No legislation has really been passed to fix any of this. Corporate greed, I know sounds left as shit, but it’s true. Gen Z has nothing to fight for. Our elders fucked it all up. There’s a reason the alternate name is “the lost generation”.
I’m a veteran, gen Z, so I can see both sides. If the US Government wasn’t such a predatory system they wouldn’t need to institute a draft. Young men left right and center would volunteer had they been taken care of. Gen Z are veterans and the Government is the VA. They don’t give a shit about us. Politicians wouldn’t even spit on us on a hot day. Whole country’s fucked up.
I’ve seen the rest of the world, your generation thinking America isn’t worth fighting for is delusional as fuck. That’s a sentiment from a generation of coddled babies who’ve never faced any adversity.
@@ValhallaVFT I don’t disagree. I too went over seas, I have an American Flag that was flown over the White House in my honor. I’ve met with Congress, several times. I personally know 3 astronauts. I’m very much so a patriot. Like we can sit here and say my generation is “weak” and “coddled” and blah blah blah. They said the same shit about the kids that stormed Normandy. You can’t compare your experiences, because you, we, volunteered for it. It’s not applicable here. You had something worth fighting for, they don’t. That’s the difference. This generation has no purpose. They are known as “the lost generation”. I’ve watched NCO’s scream at Soldiers who grew up in Afghanistan calling them soft. Like you have no idea, about anyone. You were backed by the biggest military and best training in the world, and the government wants to throw these kids to the wolves, and your response is “you’re coddled”? After the Government took everything already? And what they didn’t take they let the Corporations have? You tell everyone else they play the victim card and every single time the first thing out of y’alls mouth is “I had it so bad, that deployment fucked me up” like, NOBODY forced you to do it lmao. Instead of telling this generation “get hard” and shit, maybe we should be building the country back to its former glory, so that these men and women can come home proud, with a country that wants them back. You’re really gonna attack this upcoming wave of warriors, after we watch every generation of veterans get absolutely PP slapped by this society? Gen Z isn’t the one blowing their fucking brains out 22 times a day brother it ain’t about being coddled or being hard. Turn your aggression to the appropriate target cause it’s not your kids and nephews that are the problem. There are some shit country’s and societies out there, trust me, I know. But those kids aren’t signing up to fight for it? They’re innovating and getting active about making their nations a better place. Tf is the point of fighting for this country if you can’t even get a home? You don’t even LIVE HERE type shit 🤣
Finally, though we may disagree on the quality of our generations, I still love your content and from one warrior to another, you are loved here big fella. I do also agree, hardship builds charecter and a better understanding of reality. Something a lot of people need, a reality check. Cause life can be a lot harder than missing rent on a 9-5.

Yeah no lol i fear a draft would kick off massive violent protest. Plus no one wants to die for the MIC & they who shall not be named, i see them recalling retired service men & women & offering foreigners citizenship for fighting.
Violent protest by who? Gen z lol? Oh no lol. I don’t think people realize how this works in times of serious war, there won’t be violent protests because the government will violently end them, it’s not gona be like the BLM riots where you get to just burn things down with no consequence.

@@ValhallaVFT you might be okay with the elites squandering our sacrifice. I’m not. I’m not gen z. I spent 17 years in and 4 combat tours between Iraq and Afghanistan. I was med retired for combat wounds. They knew both Iraq and Afghanistan were unwinnable and sent us there again and again anyways. And for what? Money. That’s what.
They did the same to my dad and his generation in Vietnam. You think honoring the fallen is blindly following orders. I think honoring the fallen is making sure we don’t get into wars we aren’t willing to win in the first place. We don’t have the moral high ground anymore. Until we do, I agree with the gen z sentiment about the corruption of the system.
Our government and most of the people simply aren’t worth serving in the first place. Covid proved that. It’s gonna get worse before it gets worse. If a draft arises, I plan on doing my duty by arranging appointments with draft board members and piano wire. It won’t be like 2020, it’ll be the break up of Yugoslavia, and if you can’t see that, you’re completely out of touch.

Figure I'll pitch in my 10 cents as a Gen Z and say:
People will fight for what they see is right, regardless of the draft, wonderful example being the Vietnam war. Don't expect people to go easy just because they're forced to by law and are seen as "soft", you might just end up with a frag beneath your bed if you treat your people wrong. Truthfully have the strength of mind to protect myself and those I care about (even if it means having to take a life), but I won't be some meat thrown to the grinder just for some politician to further line their pockets with gold.
Imo, Country is heading for a very bloody and very sad Civil war, especially with the rampant 'Us vs Them' mentality within the political system. Our generation has no confidence in any of the promises of yesterday, and only see a future of turmoil for someone else's profit and power, and we don't get a choice in it.
Good luck, but, I don't think you'll be getting anything further than the blood of children on your hands with this.
And that's why I didn't have kids. I saw the writing on the wall, and knew this society wasn't deserving of them. But, I might have kids now...AFTER I TAKE EVERYTHING.
I hate becoming this monster, but I dunno how I'm supposed to be the bad guy, when all the normies wanna try their luck against drone-guided thermobaric bombs...nasty stuff, that is. Like, how am I supposed to feel sympathy for people who ignore truth and chase victory at all costs? If there must be a winner and a loser, I'd rather be the winner, which means not shedding my blood in behalf of those who tell me "You will have nothing, and you will be happy."

Appreciate the shout out brother. **for constructive discussion purposes: I’d disagree a little when you say “you can’t force anyone to fight.” It happens all the time around the world, but I know you know that, and have seen that. I would say, it will be very difficult to force Americans to fight. Thats another story. I think America is in for a big awakening, one that nobody can predict. It’s going to be up to us to decide how it turns out, which is what our culture would consider “the right way” to go about it.

Greek ex military officer here to give a new perspective. Most of the western countries hate their own men, putting a clever a capable guy into a fighting position against an enemy while you treated your own men like shit (and I mean it in the extreme way ) is a good way to send more men to the enemy's side .
Also sending a woman to the frontline is a recipe for disaster cause if she make a mistake many men will try to save her this losing more capable people to save one. Sure there are some women that are built for this but they are the exception and not the rule and they're far too few
I am a chilean woman and here is y perspective:
1. I understand why western men don´t want to go fight for their country that hates them. Here in Chile politicians pass bill after bill inspired on radical feminism that treats men like shit, why should they fight? Plus, traditionally men went to war to protect women and children, but we live in an era when women don´t wanto to be protected and they will not even protect to life in their womb. If they not respect and protect life, why should men protect them?
2. Women should not be drafted, they should join the army only if they want to, and they should only do secondary jobs. The front line is not a place for women, for the same reasons you explain. Plus, if she falls in the hands of the enemy, men will risk their lives and the mission to save here, there is no way they are going to leave her behind.
@@andrear7181 i agree, we have a women officers in the military that couldn't do shit and they were taking their frustrations of that on soldiers and they were kept saying that a woman is just as capable as men in war which in Greece it was true in the long past (in Greece history from ancient times till a certain time we had several women military commanders that were amazing in warfare and in battle, the latest example would be the military commander Bouboulina) but in modern times most of the women are nothing like that.

@@Aki-kh2qe-StreetKidZZZ I am sorry what you had to go through. Yes, women can be horrible a lot of times. I am a college teacher and some years ago I took a class on a constitutional tour to our nation´s capital, because my university was 600 miles from the city. I went with 50 students, half boys, half girls. Because they were students, the University paid for a cheap hotel. The boys did not say a thing about all the unconfortable things of the hotel. 90% of the woman were whinny and protestd whe whole time; the food, the rooms, the bathrooms.
When we went home, I told the Dean of the Faculty next time I would go in charge of the class, only if I travelled with men, no girls in the group.
I’m a veteran who served 1980 to 84. It’s amazing to see so many comments that reflect a revulsion of our country. But I’m not surprised. We’ve lost our grip on American history and our country’s founding principles. The current administration is just like a banana republic and corrupt as hell. I miss the time of Reagan when we defeated Russia in the Cold War after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Most people today could not tell you what happened during the Cold War and Reagan’s part in defeating the Soviet attempt of global communism. And today so very few realize the value of a free press, freedom of speech, and freedom of conscience. The values of our current society is a sad cometary on where we are heading and it only became really bad around 2000. I tremble when I consider where we are heading as a society. Thanks for your program on the military draft. I served willingly.

As a Gen Z guy Im okay with getting drafted personally because I tried to join the Army before only to get told I had too many waivers. I guess they might be getting desperate enough now.
It depends on what the waivers are for. There are some waivers the DOD will not be flexible with regardless of how bad they need personnel. Not to discourage you, hopefully you'll get what you want, but i'm just saying.

I do not think madatory service or a draft is a good thing. My father was stationed on the USS Albany CG-10 during Vietnam. He was with a bunch of sailors that joined to avoid in-country (Vietnam) service, or they were drafted. This left a deep enough impression on him that he told his three sons that he never wanted to see us join the military. He claimed that his ship was full of druggies and guys that didn't even want to be there. It made his time on the ship miserable, and he said the morale was very low.

As a teenager right out of high school in the 80’s, i did not want to go to college, i had no skills beyond emerging computer skills, no sense of direction, joined the military within two days of graduation. Best thing that ever happened. Gained skills, figured out what I wanted out of life, got my VA benefit, made airman of the year for my base. Found my purpose in life. I think the draft would help a lot of drifting, aimless kids get some discipline and maybe learn some respect for others, gain some skills in the process. Some will end up in Leavenworth.
Military saved my life for sure as well. Super underrated for what it gives young men and women.
There's a difference between being a military man and actually going to war.

I highly doubt there’s going to be a draft lol I don’t think the U.S. govt has military capacity to fight a civil war that would highly likely erupt over that. I think most good Americans in the west, south and Appalachia would rather die fighting the current federal govt then fighting for it in some geo political distraction. The mentally of if you’re going to die might as well die like Socrates not as some Neo slave gladiator, like a live free or die mentally seems increasely common. Texas Republican Party has changed its platform to pushing a secession referendum I think and now Texas is building its own stock exchange. Texas is projecting military power through border proxy seemingly also. So you’re going have domestic non state and state actors ready to fight the fed if there’s draft I think. I find it a bit hard to believe Americans are going to just roll over and allow the fed to drain their communities of fighting aged individuals given the political movements and political instability in the U.S.. I find a hard sell that the fed won’t need to fight and take the jungles of Appalachia and the mountains of the west before drafting people to go die in some socialist Neo peasant army so Raytheon can increase its profit margins politicians can protect investments in Ukraine lol
Excellent assessment. Non-combat, Gen X, USAR veteran here.
For reasons I do not know to this day, I never received orders to deploy with my section already deployed for Desert Storm at the time. Any thoughts as to why?
I had just finished Basic Training and was expecting to join them, but it never happened.
Anyway, I think a compromise between Selective Service and conscription, that may work is mandatory ROTC (one of my daughters is signed up).
Nigerian has National Youth Service Corps, NYSC (similar to ROTC) which is mandatory for all Nigerians, including those running for certain elected offices.

Do you think exchange citinzenship for military service is a good idea ? Like France do with his foreign Legion.
We already do that. I now abunch of n green berets that did that exact thing.
Citizenship in exchange for service has been a thing in American culture for a looooong time.
I did the military service in my country I was happy to do it. To this day, one the main jobs of the military there is to help its citizens in case of natural disasters. In my time living in this country I have never seen the military doing that in this country.
I want to enlist in the USMC or in the Army as a Ranger (Option 40) but I have a hearing issue in my left ear and my best friend, she has full hearing loss in her right ear so we might be exempt although I will try to obtain a waiver.

Thermobaric bombs don't really care how brave or skilled someone is, only how far you are from the detonation point...which has to be pretty far, because it ignites the atmosphere, sends out a pressure wave measured at about 120 atmospheres, and then creates a vacuum that sucks the air out of your lungs...and maybe the lungs themselves.

A draft would spark "Balkanization"
I was in the active duty U.S. Army for 8 years and only joined as a stepping stone for the civilian world. I thought it would be scary and hard. Let me tell you something. It’s not that scary and not that hard. It’s hardly like the movies. The movies only show like 20 percent of it. As a matter fact I’d say it’s equal with the civilian world, exactly equal if you include overall concept of life, in the civilian world you may still run into bad people, unfortunaly can still be murdered and may struggle financially, etc. the military isn’t that bad, trust me. People think a draft is literally the end of the world and literally think there life is downhill if drafted but it’s not. In fact I think the military is a great choice. Don’t listen to these people who say, don’t join, you die, you’ll get raped and won’t get justice, you don’t make much money, it’s all an urban legend. And like I said all that can still happen in the civilian world anyways. It’s not just about war, you play sports, you literally work out an hour a day Monday through Friday, it’s part of your job, you have to workout, you get 3 free meals a day, free healthcare and so much more. I wouldn’t say it was easy but it wasn’t hard either. It was average. I’ll be honest.
I have never run into more bad people and criminals than in the military. Military could be good but personnel quality is bad.
If a draft happens and god forbid my number gets called up i hope i can get into small arms repair rather than a combative role.
Honestly though, idk why you woudl ignore vets saying how horrible it is to fight in war. There are a large amount even saying that on this video, while sure the military can straighten out your life it comes with major costs. Was it good for people who were sent to the early years of iraq? Was it good for those in Vietnam. Gulf war who got gulf war syndrome? Is it good for those that have trouble adjusting now? Thats not something you can just ignore. If thats something you understand and are still willing to go then more power to you.
I feel as though our biggest worry is were going to fight a major power in conventional warfare which is something we've never done since WWII and seeing war footage from Ukraine really shows that, no one in this world is ready for warfare like that. Personally if it cane down to it while i would be afraid as everyone is to go fight, id personally be fine with fighting rag boy rather than potato or rice boy.
Me, as a Gen Z:

But fr tho, I am currently trying to enlist in the military.
My journey begins when I was trying to figure out what job I wanted to do, but I wanted to be a job that's aligned to me.
I took a retrospective of my life and thought the military would be right for me, and I liked the idea!
So I went online to apply for the army and they said they would talk to me when I'm 17. And so, I waited.
Somewhere in February, I was in bed and my mom opens my door and says "You got something for the Army".
I got up and said, "The Army?".
I was bare naked, I got up to turn on the light to see what I got, and it turned out to be a letter from the Marines.
I filled out the letter and sent it back to them.
Much later in April, once I turned 17 and a few weeks past. The Army was able to appoint me a meeting fast than Marines, but I was later going through overwhelment.
Because of my Jounier year and not being able to meet their score standards, I had to take a break. Even while taking a break, my heart ache with grief of the experience of having something I had more pride for, get destroyed.
Somewhere at the end of June, I decided to tell my Marine recruiter that I am ready to enlist for them. A few days later, when I took their online test. He said that I honestly have no chance in scoring for Marines, but I have a good chance in joining the navy.
My Navy recruiter called me today and schedule me to meet him tomorrow, so that concludes my military story so far and to tell more yet to come.
Spot on, brother.
Fight for the freedom of f###### no thanks
What do you make, 18$ an hour judging by your picture? If you’re even employed. You might want consider going and fighting for freedom, pays better than the minimum wage you’re earning.
@@ValhallaVFTwould rather avoid further traumatizing myself all things considered I already have PTSD extreme anxiety and several other issues from my personal life
@@tonythetwitch5813 He HAS to justify "service" because it's what he's invested his entire career and ego in.
@@ValhallaVFTThanks for literally underlining the reason people think there isn't a reason to fight, what's home.
A veteran that makes an assumption that someone makes minimum wage at 18$ an hour (when it's more like 14 at least in my state).
We have veterans that laugh at us when they literally POINT OUT THAT OUT OWN HOME CAN'T CARE FOR US ENOUGH.
So the reasoning is to go fight for it and risk dying so you get paid enough money over your time fighting that IF you survive. IF. You come back to be hated by your country, still abandoned by your senators. Homeless. Still no jobs, going back to the same minimum wage.
So again what is there to fight for? We need the 'better tomorrow' yesterday, or there is no reason to go.
