The Army wants to bring in 10,000 new soldiers during a three-day recruiting spree

The Army is kicking off a three-day recruiting bonanza, during which they hope to bring in 10,000 new soldiers.

The Army National Hiring Days, from June 30-July 2, is the "first nationwide virtual hiring campaign" of its kind, Army officials said during a roundtable discussion with reporters on Wednesday.

Army leaders said they were confident they would hit the service's total end strength goal of 485,000 soldiers, hough they still couldn't pinpoint what exactly the recruiting goal for the year was.

Might be a new career path for a lot of former LEO's.

LOL.
Speaking of potential recruits, Latinos are flocking to the military.

MEPS took our son through a 2 year ride from hell while trying to join the USAF, DQ'd him in the end.

MEPS has now taken our son through another year of hell while he's been trying to join the Army...

That's 3 years of him dealing with MEPS for those who are counting

They're not going to get 1 person through MEPS in 3 days unless the Army has some kind of trick up their sleeve.
Throwing our allegiances to political parties in the long run gave away our liberty.

Good! It has been a few days since I wore the uniform,but almost all of what are called "His-Panics" today that I met while I was in the army were damn good soldiers,and patriotic to a man.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

It ain't 1971 anymore, old man. These ain't them type of Hispanics.
J/k   :tongue2:

I agree with you for the most part.
United States citizens of Dominican, Mexican, Central American, Cuban, South American descent overwhelmingly fit the bill that you described. I have seen 30 of them enlist in the last four years.

Now, let's talk about them Puerto Ricans....
There is good cause why they vex Trump so much.  :rolling:
