The United States’ military has just gotten a bit thinner, after thousands of troops are set to be discharged for not compiling with a vaccine mandate, on top of the Army recording its worst recruitment goals in history.
Nearly two weeks ago The WinePress reported on some of the statements by servicemen in the Coast Guard who are being kicked out for not getting vaccinated, the total of which is around 1,200.
US Coast Guard Continues To Deny Religious Exemption For Non-Vaxxed And Discharges Them
But in an ironic twist, President Joe Biden recently gave praise to a member of the Coast Guard for his devoted service in rescuing victims of hurricane Ian in Florida. However, this same serviceman is set to be terminated from his position for not getting vaccinated.
President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. spoke today with Lieutenant Commander Christopher Hooper and Aviation Survival Technician Second Class Zach Loesch to personally thank them for the heroic work that they and their Coast Guard colleagues have performed during search and rescue operations in response to Hurricane Ian.
The President thanked them for saving lives and asked for a report on the work that continues to rescue Floridians. He also asked if they needed any additional support that he can provide to accelerate successful rescues; they indicated they have gotten what they need to execute their vital mission.
The White House said in a press release
Loesch explained to Breitbart that he did want to ruin the phone call by mentioning his impending discharge, but is still upset all the same.
It just sucks that he thanked me yet the vaccine mandate is what’s kicking me out. I just love my job and I’m really good at it. It sucks. I feel like this is the job that I was born to do.

Even so, the Biden administration still defends releasing these soldiers for not getting vaccinated.
John Kirby, spokesperson for the Pentagon and coordinator for Strategic Communications at the National Security Council, recently told Fox & Friends that it is imperative that troops get vaccinated.
The vaccines are a valid military requirement. You want your troops to be ready – part of being ready is being healthy and not having the ability to infect your unit and make their unit readiness any worse than it is.
Kirby said
Kirby was currently isolating at home after testing positive for Covid, though he reportedly has taken four doses of a Covid shot.
During the interview the Fox hosts brought up the issue of the Army’s very underwhelming recruitment numbers this year.
As reported by American Military News (AMN): ‘The U.S. Army missed its 2022 recruiting goal by 15,000 troops, marking a 25 percent miss from the 60,000 new soldiers it sought to recruit before the fiscal year ended on Sept. 30. It’s the worst miss on record for the service since the U.S. military became an all-volunteer force nearly 50 years ago.’
We will only achieve 75% of our fiscal year 22 recruiting goal.
The Army will maintain its readiness and meet all our national security requirements. If recruiting challenges persist, we will draw on the Guard and Reserve to augment active-duty forces, and may need to trim our force structure.
Army Secretary Christine Wormuth told the press
AMN noted that the other branches were able to meet their recruitment goals but are still behind in their 2023 fiscal year recruiting class. But some of these divisions, namely the Air Force, had to prematurely dive into their delayed entry pools to meet this year’s goals, which puts them farther back for 2023.
Using Air Force lexicon, I would say we’re doing a dead stick landing as we come into the end of fiscal ’22, and we’re going to need to turn around on the first of October and do an afterburner takeoff.
We’re going to be starting 2023 in a tougher position than we started 2022
Major General Edward Thomas, head of the Air Force Recruiting Service, said at a recruiting conference last month
The Marines and Navy will also be starting off the 2023 cycle with less recruits than hoped for.
There are many purported reasons why recruitment numbers are slipping. The most glaringly obvious ones are the vaccine mandates, which mainstream media has tried to beat around the bush with.
But beyond just that, the pool of prospects the military is even able to bring in continues to dwindle.
Recruiting ages are traditionally 17-24.
In early 2021 The WP reported on the “Gluttony Pandemic” plaguing the U.S. At the time, retired generals wrote in a letter to the Pentagon, stating that America’s youth is “too flabby” to defend the nation, and urged a more “holistic approach” to address this.
These factors largely fall outside of the Department of Defense’s purview but have an immense impact on the ability of the military to recruit new servicemembers as well as a significant monetary impact on the Department. Without coordinated actions, these trends pose a significant threat to the future of the all volunteer force.
Retired Air Force Gen. William M. Fraser and Retired Coast Guard Adm. James M. Loy, said
At the time, the Department of Defense (DoD said that 71% of young Americans are unable to serve in uniform, largely due to obesity, drug abuse, a poor education or a criminal record.
This number has worsened since then. Citing a Pentagon report, Military.com reported that ‘77% of young Americans would not qualify for military service without a waiver due to being overweight, using drugs or having mental and physical health problems.’
When considering youth disqualified for one reason alone, the most prevalent disqualification rates are overweight (11%), drug and alcohol abuse (8%), and medical/physical health (7%).
The Pentagon found in their study, for those aged 17-24.
To put it bluntly, I am worried we are now in the early days of a long-term threat to the all-volunteer force. [There is] a small and declining number of Americans who are eligible and interested in military service.
Every single metric tracking the military recruiting environment is going in the wrong direction.

Additionally, ADN noted, ‘Last month, Wormuth attributed bad press to the hesitance some have shown to joining the Army. She said parents and influencers are putting more emphasis on issues of suicides and sexual harassment and assault in the military, driving this hesitance to join.’
So, bearing all this in mind, Fox & Friends host Brian Kilmeade asked John Kirby, “Every one of your branches can’t recruit their threshold yet you are kicking out good men and women. How do you explain that?”
Well, look, Brian, first of all, the Navy did make their recruiting goals for enlisted personnel this year. Yes, it’s a tough recruiting environment. We recognize that but it’s also you have a requirement to be healthy to be able to serve and this is a valid military requirement.
Even if it doesn’t prevent you from getting Covid, I’m double boosted and I got it myself. It makes the symptoms a lot less severe to get you back on duty that much quicker.
Kirby responded
Kilmeade then asked, “So, it’s worth kicking out the healthiest people in our country, who are already sacrificing, it’s worth kicking them out?”
We would rather not lose anybody, of course, to the vaccine. We would rather not lose anybody from a retention perspective to have them leave the service earlier than they wanted or we wanted them to. But it’s a valid military requirement.
Kirby said
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
This deconstruction of the U.S. military and defense forces are not on accident: it is very strategic and calculated.
On top of all the reasons listed, the mainstream media keeps trying to downplay the vaccine mandates, providing a one sentence admission at the very most. This is the core of the problems right there, obviously.
On top of this, the “wokeness” and utter perversion that is being allowed to fester is also a major deterrent: “US Navy Is Training Sailors On How To Use Proper Gender Pronouns For Pride Month.”
Furthermore, this is also at a time when, on top of all the other useless wars and foreign entanglements both Republicans and Democrats continue to get us involved in, and the brainless fools cheer for; now the U.S. is doing everything it can to agitate the giant brawling bear and red fiery dragon on the other side of the world. The last thing people want to do is get involved in that type of war, especially with Sloppy Joe as the perceived Commander-in-Chief.
If you read my report, “Are You Awake? Are You Ready For What’s Coming? Do You Loathe The Honeycomb??,” then you know I covered the scriptures that America’s future, unfortunately, is a military defeat and conquering at the hands of other nations. This is another “sign” of that possible conclusion.
[25] The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth. [32] Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long: and there shall be no might in thine hand. [33] The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed alway: [34] So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. [36] The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone. [41] Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity. [48] Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee. [49] The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand; [50] A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young: [51] And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee. [52] And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.Deuteronomy 28:25, 32-34, 36, 41, 48-52
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

The most powerful military in the world…hehe not for long and not anymore!
Take up arms, learn skills, and become your own soldier, I follow my advice.
Did anyone see that video of the female soldiers making a dance video on Tiktok? They’ve turned the army into a sorority slumber party, and America thinks we’ll beat China? Yeah right! We can’t even beat El Salvador!
The DOD forcing all members of the armed services to take the C19 vax’s is NOT a valid requirement. There isn’t anywhere on the planet that has an isolated strain of this virus. Without it, it is impossible to make a vaccine for it. The vaccines from all companies are NOT authorized by the FDA (not that it would matter), instead, they’re using a word game to trick the populace into believing that they have. The FDA will only state that as long as a state of emergency exists, then the C19 vaccines can be given. In order to have a state of emergency, there CANNOT be any other method to combat the virus. The CDC, WHO, NIH have all stated that Ivermectin/hydroxy are 96% effective in combating the C19 virus (which is a weaponized lab version of the common cold). Since there always has been another method to fight the virus, all state of emergency orders are and were illegal. If it were legal, under a state’s constitution, it is only legal to have an SOE for up to 60 days. During that time, no political member or employee of the government can take a day off until the SOE is over. The entire C19 debacle is nothing more than a depopulation experiment done so, without the consent of the participants.
In the Armed Forces, it is illegal to experiment on military members at any time without their full knowledge and understanding of the possible outcome to its results. Since the DOD is forcing members to take the C19 Vax or be discharged, we can only speculate that the US Gov is forcing its own military to downsize in preparation to force its military to become obsolete.
Handing over weapons and ammo to Ukraine is also depleting the military’s ability to not only defend the US, but fight abroad when demanded. And, as Biden now plays another game of removing fuel within the nation while blaming OPEC and foreign nations for our troubles is just another move in the Gov’s agenda to destroy the country’s defenses and its ability to fight.
The only real threat to the populace is the experimental jabs created by corporations and released on the public on purpose to reap the windfall of profits off of our blood. The last thing any of these medical cartels care about is your health. YOU, are the experiment and we’re all being played.
This is only the beginning. It’s stage one of many and the worst is yet to come.
