Army Drops Requirement for High School Diploma Amid Recruiting Crisis


Military.com | By Steve Beynon
Published June 24, 2022

The Army is tossing its mandate for potential recruits to have a high school diploma or GED certificate to enlist in the service, in one of the most dramatic moves yet in the escalating recruiting crisis hitting the entire Defense Department.

On Thursday, the service announced that individuals may enlist without those previously required education certifications if they ship to basic training this fiscal year, which ends Oct. 1.

Recruits must also be at least 18 years old and otherwise qualify for a job in the active-duty Army. They also must score at least a 50 on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, or ASVAB, an SAT-style quiz to measure a potential recruit's academic ability.

This should work out well....   *****rollingeyes*****
All things considered, when you look at what the socialist education system turns out a diploma is pretty well worthless anyway a very large percentage can't read past a third grade level(maybe), can't do math(racist anyway), and  can barely communicate. Maybe they will be able to function as cannon fodder....which seems to be the democrats opinion of our soldiers worth.
