CAMARILLO: ARMY IS REFORMING, MODERNIZING RECRUITING
 
Thu, 04/06/2023 - 07:08

The Army is facing “significant challenges” with recruiting, but the service is working to “reform and modernize … for today’s landscape,” a senior leader said.

“Today's recruiting landscape did not emerge overnight, and it will take more than one year to solve,” Army Undersecretary Gabe Camarillo testified March 22 before the Senate Armed Services Committee during a hearing to explore recruiting challenges facing the military. “We need to address a combination of challenging long-term problems and current market trends that are together having an acute impact.”

Though the Army missed last year’s recruiting goal of 60,000 soldiers by 15,000, Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said this year’s goal has been upped to 65,000.

The Army has taken several steps as it tries to improve recruiting, including a recent revival of “Be All You Can Be,” a recruiting slogan that first appeared in the 1980s. It has also introduced several recruiting and retention incentives, Camarillo said.

But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

From what I'm reading, it's every bit as effective as the old program. :pondering:

Are they going to bring back the WAC to entice more alphabetsoupers to enlist?

Military recruiters have a history of welching on recruitment guarantees and bonuses.
