The Army has been especially hard-hit by these issues, and currently faces a massive recruiting shortfall. "The Army has to recognize that there's been an evolution in that young population," said U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-Calif, chair of the Subcommittee on Military Personnel. "And if you're going to target that young population for service, you've got to make it appealing to them."

The 3 reasons to join the US military - You’re vulnerable & in need of the support, food, shelter & false sense of belonging. - You’re a psychopath or a gun nut hoping to exact your violent fantasies. - You come from a military family & it’s all you know or you have been successfully brainwashed with nationalistic propaganda & “heroism” rhetoric.
