That’s astounding and beyond pathetic! To spend what we spend per student and have this results comes from a lack of.... discipline! Complacencies and the theory if u just show up , your a winner! How is this working at all
Fat-ass Trump would be rejected.
It’s been the same for 3 decades why is this news?
WWII, teens storm the beach at Normandy. 2019, teens offended by a hat
The reasons? We do not invest in our youth. Instead, we rob their futures.
Gawd bless ‘Merica!
Its your choice America! Choices do matter!
BittyMac3 I figured with all the MAGA and “stand for the flag” folks the line to the recruiting offices would be out the door 🤔😴
more signs of end times - that generation is one of GLUTONY and CONVENIENCE. All in bible. Generations are going to become a bunch of overweight potheads working in min wage jobs while rich become KINGS. realjameswoods 60minutes gma
How pathetic is that?
So there was such a thing as the good old days....
navarrotells Don’t forget people who have health issues. My grandpa was 4-F when he tried to enlist in 1940 due to flat feet. If it weren’t for my chronic migraines, I would have definitely enlisted in the military years ago. It’s not all laziness and lack of discipline that keeps people out.
i dont get why they dont lower weight requirement seems like a easy fix. Put them through an extra boot camp and diet to get them down. Shouldnt be that hard
This data may be true... but it is a re-hash from several years ago. Please BEWARE the spin & false claims that may be coming. See:
Good
yeah now who will you give 'personality disorder' discharges to ? don't believe that bullshit article. rear admiral 'nough said.
Trump is planning a war to change that.
That is what they get for eating Tide Pods.
Fat, dumb, and doped. Yep, that about describes them.
What happened to society
Well 71% of you young people don’t fret! YouTube and whisper on a mic and sooner or later you will be making good money
Making being fat socially acceptable isn’t helping anybody.
The fall of America has started. Just like the rich and powerful want. Keep the people fat and poor they can control easier
That should tell us something. The police and the military are scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to hiring new recruits. It's going to be a great world for future generations. The loss of innocence takes its toll.
Heel Spurs?
Maybe they are ineligible because they have bone spurs. Did you ever think of that?
Gang presence in the United States military Yeah whatever. There's videos of literal gang members in Iraq and Afghanistan shooting while throwing gang signs up. As if US military has any standards at all

New ‘Call Of Duty’ Career Mode Lets Player Join Raytheon’s Board Of Directors After Military ServiceSANTA MONICA, CA—Introducing an update aimed at heightening the realism of the game, Activision announced Wednesday that a new career mode for Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 allows playable characters who retire from the military to continue the fight by joining Raytheon’s board of directors. “Players who rack up enough confirmed kills in combat will now be able to take their adventure to the next level as they join a $50 billion company with the mission of building lethal weapons systems and maximizing profits for shareholders,” said Activision spokesperson Adam Bera, acknowledging this version of career mode tested better with gamers than a beta version in which the player is a discharged soldier who returns to his hometown, discovers there are few jobs available, and struggles to make ends meet. “Points are earned in career mode by attending meetings, securing hundreds of millions of dollars in Defense Department contracts, and appearing on cable news programs to fend off bad public relations for the military-industrial complex. Our award-winning developers even worked closely with current and former Raytheon executives to make sure all the golfing side quests in the game are as true to life as possible.” Bera went on to reveal that if Call Of Duty players beat career mode with 100% of achievements, they will be able to unlock Erik Prince as a playable character. it is sad that this is satire, because I would finally play a COD game if this was actually a thing LMAO TVsJonLee
