The French Foreign Legion has no problem...... This is from the Legion's YT channel. I take it that this is a good basic circuit training program to stay fit while away from any facilities. I think so....this guy is in kick-ass shape, I've seen some of his other videos

Project 100,000: McNamara's Morons revived all over again. The Canadian Forces are pretty integrated with wokeness too. Yet, we don't seem to have the same problems conducting missions & force projection? The educational curriculum is more thorough & influential here than it's American counterparts. Wokeness is part of it but it doesn't interfere with the reading, writing & arithmetic aspect either.

Ok, not the greatest rendition of Uptown Funk, but it shows how the Legion can adapt.

One real man is worth more than a hundred self-obsessed, sissified "males"....adding zeros just comes out zero.

This shit is not going to end well for the U.S. Yes indeed. I just listened to a commentator discuss how most recruits come from deep red states where people cling tightly to traditional values (religious and social). It's not uncommon for military service to be a family tradition. These people also tend to be very committed and patriotic. Blue states on the other hand don't provide as many recruits. So now with the new woke armed services mantra "diversity is our strength" and the fact that you might for example, have men that call themselves women showering with women does anyone think that individuals from these red states are going to want to enlist? Once we lose that pipeline it will be gone forever. That's a big problem. One more thing, when the military is a tradition in your family you know that those young people are going to be physically fit also - that's a big issue in a country where close to half the population is obese and young people are no longer fit. God help us.

God help us. The endless wars don't help either....if I had military age kids I would advise against joining now....fuck them and their woke and gay/he-she bullshit I can't imagine being stuck on a navy ship amidst the women, gays, whatevers and just plain woke assholes....this is not going to work out well....standards being lowered and "diversity" being the navy's new mission. And let's not forget that BIDEN sold the military out with his Afghanistan move.....just think, he abandoned people and billions of $ in weapons and equipment over there FUCK HIM AND ALL THOSE POLITICIANS !All the services have been impacted by this bullshit....but one of the Army's recruiting videos highlighted the lesbian mom.....that ought to scare the shit out of any potential foes ! And I always encouraged young people to join.....but not anymore Our good kids are being killed and maimed while the others avoid serving....I've heard some people claim that we need the draft again Fuck that....those who were connected during the Vietnam war went to college or found some other loophole while many others were drafted....my nephew being one of them....being 1A draft classification he couldn't even get a good job because of his draft classification And also fuck ALL these politicians.....where are THEIR kids.......certainly not in the Service !

Billfish, I respect your opinion, but I would still encourage a young person--one who has something on the ball, which is not so common--to join the service. The reason I say that is, I think things are even worse in the civilian sector. I think a decent young person today should forget all about college, all they will get there is messed up worse, and working in the private sector is the pits. You should see the lazy, immature, good-for-nothing fairies I have to tolerate at my job. they sit on their fat asses and shovel food into their mouths nonstop all day long, they are all fat and out of shape and complain constantly how tired and burned out they are from all the "work" they do, and their idea of "work" is making posts on facebook. I've never in all my life seen such a bunch of worthless trash, they are soft and squishy and weak. A motivated young person in good physical condition that's looking for a challenge should join up and aim for the elite units. There is still a warrior ethos out there, and it will survive, in fact it transcends politics and the constant stream of drivel that befalls us every day. That's my two cents.

The USA doesn't actually need such a massive military anyway unless they want to continue invading other people's countries for no good reason. Maybe then the army could just recruit manly men and won't need the woke brigade to make up the numbers?

Maybe we should have two armies...a small elite force of real killers who spend every moment practicing skill at arms, held in readiness for the real business of war, and then the Diversity Force where the non-entities can all cuddle with each other. The elite force will be under the newly-reinstated WAR DEPARTMENT and, as luck would have it, for the home of the Diversity Force, we don't need to change the initials DoD, it will just stand for "Department of Diversity" now.
