Real talk though, would you want to be surrounded by incompetent people in a combat situation?

Either they can pass the test or they should be turned away.

Same people probably complained about standards being dropped for women and whoever else, but to my knowledge those demographics never failed the exams. This would be straight up lowering the bar for the worst.

Why didn’t he just join the marines? If you can successfully use a crayon they’ll accept you
Army minimum is lower than the USMC minimum.

If you can walk and chew bubble gum at the same time, you can be a soldier.

Being a Recruiter was worse than getting shot at I’ll stand on that forever
two of my ots classmates were recruiters in boston and hated life. like wrote letters to recruiting service telling them that all the suicides and substance abuse issues that arose were completely the fault of Recruiting service and their insane demands/workload.

The bar exists for a reason.

How you fail the asvab to get into the ARMY 10 times :gucci:

You can literally just spell your name correctly and they’ll accept you

They were likely trying to score a certain amount to get accepted into a certain mos. It’s a basic aptitude test the higher you score the more trainable you are allegedly.

Naw after 9 tries maybe you should take what you can get..

Recruiters not trying to play all that either. Only thing I can think of is him taking the pre-test 10 times trying to reach a certain score

But if they taking him to MEPS 10 times thats crazy
