The Epstein class has to cull the proletariat somehow.
Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia
We’re at war with Westasia too though.
As a soldier, don’t we reserve the right to ignore orders that are unconstitutional?
recruit me at 39 and I hurt my back on day 1 tying my boots
You could get a waver to join at that age. I do think the US Military is a great option for people but it can be hard on a family though. It’s one of the reasons most of my friends did not renew. At 42 your probably have kids and probably have your life mostly fleshed out. The military was great for a lot of my friends and the benefits are good.
This admin I don’t trust why they are moving the goal post
Make it a donut hole. Not eliglbe between the ages of 36 and 66 ^1/2. Drone technology can easily be applied to rollators and walkers.
I’m pretty sure that what you’re suggesting is very nearly the plot of John Scalzi’s “Old Man’s War”
When the draft hits but I’m trans.
I’m sure undesirables like us who can’t be forced into the military will be forced into work camps.

The 442nd Infantry Regiment is the most decorate unit in U.S. military history. This is because they were all Americans of Japanese decent during WWII and were sent on suicide missions.
Autist here, can I join ya? I’ve got Fallout 1 and 2 on disk.
On disk!? 👀
Birthday gift from when I was like 12. Got the both of them at a pawn shop in rural Arkansas.
I got banned for being trans 😎
If there’s a draft, I hope the MAGAs cry when their kids and grandkids get dragged off to boot camp.
Their kids have probably disowned them and cut contract, so they might be happy they are off to war to become “war fighters” and get testosterone shots
Man, I did some light manual labor yesterday and I can barely stand today. I can’t go to fucking war without severely endangering every friendly around me.
So no, 45 is not the new thirty fucking anything.
An impediment to the U.S. military, you say? Now you really do have a moral obligation to sign up.
Actually, that sounds like you’re perfect for the American military.
Or ICE.
Don’t worry they’re passing out TRT and ibuprofen.
Holy shit you guys I can still join the Army and be out with full bennys by the young old age of 61! jfk
Isn’t 35 also too old for the draft?
You’re never too old to soak up an FPV drone
Draft age gonna change in any real war.
Most of war is getting things fixed or moving to the front line fighting. For every battalion fighting there is another fixing cars, doing laundry, cooking, or getting the paperwork in order for all of those. Doctors are just as important to an army as soldiers. None of those jobs is too much for a 35 year old getting 4 years of service in.
Ageist nonsense.
They used to contact out most of that stuff for us Marines
35 is too young imo, or should be the minimum age
Yeah, it should be, but 18-24 y/o’s are much easier to indoctrinate and radicalize, as well as far more reckless in their tolerance for risky activities.
Retirement doesn’t exist. Only hospice.
Look at fancy pants, planning to die inside like a millionaire.
Yeah, I’m white.
I assume they target 42 as the median age for men midlife crisis
