I bet the Chinese are not showing “My Two Mommies” recruiting ads.

Yep. Nothing destroys like wokeism. Wokeism is akin to Marxism, socialism, communism, etc.

Sparing the rod (so to speak) has spoiled the child.

The academy appointments are doled out by members of congress and so it is inherently political and as a result, academies will always reflect the political whims of the day.

That's not the reason. The kids getting appointments during any particular time have zero power to change anything at the Academies. It's not their views that are the issue, or that shape Academy policy.

The problem is in the leadership, and in particular the flag officers selected to be Superintendents. Those are political appointments, steered by the Service Secretaries, and they very much do shape policies at a given time.

It's all by design. It's all strategy. It's all part of the plan.

The military has always been a bastion of patriotism and a huge conservative voting block. The evil cabal, whose objective is the destruction of the USA, must correct this in order to carry out their plans.

The first step was to castrate the military.

This was done by first filling it with LBQTetc. and women, replacing the straight men, who are the backbone of any effective military.

They then made the military unattractive to the recruitment of straight men, by decreasing morale, such things as drag queen contests on military bases, sex change operations as part of military health care, homosexual marriages and relationships, flaunting homosexuality on military bases, in the NCO and Officers' Clubs, making the mission of the USA military diversity and inclusiveness and not national defense, etc.

All of this discouraged the recruitment of straight men, patriots, and conservatives, causing a calculated crisis in recruitment.

The deficiency can be filled by recruiting illegal immigrants, pouring across the US borders by the millions, offering them US citizenship in return for military service.

Once this is done, there is a military stocked with foreigners, loyal to the Democrat Party, which can be used against the American People.

Thus the coup d'etat is completed without firing a shot.

Brilliant! Also evil!

The worst thing of all is that millions of Americans cannot bring themselves to believe the truth about what's going on. They are the useful idiots of the cabal whose objective is the destruction of the USA. So far, their plan has worked very well.

This was five years ago. I bet it is a better place now.

They are remodeling the chapel. I can only imagine the anti-Christian place it will become.

...PC gibberish about “Integrity First. Service Before Self. Excellence in All We Do.”

You can argue that they shouldn't have removed the 'Bring Me Men' motto, but there's nothing PC about the USAF's Core Values.

During my completion of a fifty million dollar AF project of national provenance I had five high level project tours I conducted.

First was an Assistant Secretary of the Air Force — Gay
Second was John McCain — failed to show up.
Third was Secretary of the Air Force — Female
Fourth was Foreign Partner Nations — all male.
Fifth was Air Force Officers —- all male.

Back around 1980 I had a friend who went through Air Force Basic Training. Said he never did a push up or fire a gun. They weren’t training warriors 40 years ago either.

That also happened in the Roman Legions.

Definitely a warfighter and not a Pentagon perfumed prince.

The Air Force is very anti-Christian, but the Space Force is the worst. My mother-in-law has a close friend who’s son is in Space Force. When he was sent to his new duty post he was given a list of churches he could attend and the document stated you had better not be spotted at any church not on this approved list. All the churches were compromised by gay indoctrination. He got this in writing. I wish I had a copy of this order.

Maybe she had a waiver, because back then ALL basic trainees—male and female—had to qualify on the M-16 in order to graduate.

If you didn’t you got washed back.

Throughout my military career of 22 years (and I was FORCED* to do 7 years at the Pentagon in joint duty assignments), I had troops of all kinds tell me war story** after war story that were embellishments, enhancements and outright lies about their training, previous assignments, battles, duties and even civilian life.

Good war stories are meant to be taken with a big grain of salt.

*Forced as in I didn’t want to be at the Pentagon or Washington DC, which cost a fortune for a young troop, spend hours in rush hour, and put up with all the crap only Washington DC has socially. I though after my first assignment at DIA I’d get out of there, but the DCA was able to grab me and stick me in the second, deepest basement/dungeon of the Pentagon, not far from the Purple Water Fountain. I had to volunteer worldwide to finally escape.

**War story - a tale about some aspect of a soldier, sailor, marine or airman’s life, usually meant to make them more of a badass, hero or legend of some kind... Or, conversely, a major doofus or sad sack. Example: “Did I ever tell you about my first sergeant back at Fort Stumble who made us do this thing, until I told him...blah, bah, blah (insert story about how the troop bested the 1st shirt)...” “Or “I never qualified on the M-16, but they let me graduate anyway because they just wanted to get rid of me and out of there because I constantly pissed them off.”
