They're definitely hating but they also are seeing their pool of potential enlistees dwindle due to not meeting standards so something's gotta give
the standards have raised, and the training hasn't kept up with the required wellbeing/upkeep that's expected as well. they don't want to talk about that part, because it reflects on THEM :whoa:
That’s an different conversation bro. :yeshrug:
They just saying these new nikkas can’t hang like before and they’ve looked at the research. Doesn’t mean they aren’t capable or better at other things.
the research does not properly communicate the same issue they're trying to emphasize. because the amount of non-combat roles and subcultures developing, you can't expect to maintain a flat, general 'combat' readiness across the board.

and that problem already solved itself ages ago with physical requirements that are job specific lol

if some kid cries all through basic just to get to his accounting position in a few weeks, cool - let him. there is basically no scenario where he's ever gonna be the tip of the spear anywhere. the military is enormous. they've long evolved past the point where they require everyone to have infantry-always mentality. and that's a good thing

Nah, this is what happens when life is too easy. Let some shyt that it happen in these war torn countries happen here and that shyt will disappear in a week. It's like that mazlovs(sp??) hierarchy of needs. Silly culture war bullshyt is at the top of the pyramid because all other needs are being met while worrying about living and eating like the people in the war torn areas is at the bottom.

Wages could be better but we are a lot better off regardless compared to say, Yemen or Somalia. Let some major catastrophic shyt happen in the United States to disrupt our comfortable life and people are going to be worrying about eating, not about what pronouns they are using.
They had a drug problem in Iraq tho

the real reason for all the injuries is soft bones from the lack of nutrients in food!!! soil degredation and the rise of chemicals and hormones is destroying us. our food & water supply has been tampered with. a apple in 1970 is 16 times more nutritious than a apple in 2014. produce that gets to our shelves is already 10 to 14 months old. it doesnt have any minerals and vitamins. no sun + nutrient deficient food + chemicals & hormones in water and food supple + constant orgasm = a extremely soft man. then throw in some type of adhd medication our body chemistry is all wrong. we are destroying everything in the name of capitalism.

the reason for the injury climb is dumbass NCOs with zero training about how to run a fitness program making shyt up as they go with zero oversight while medical attention and access has skyrocketed :mjlol:

the older generations were not strolling through the yard looking like carl weathers and rambo. all those dudes were ate the fukk up, can't sleep, and are still begging the VA to attribute their lack of ACLs and shredded shoulders to the military
