I can't imagine why this would happen.

A precipitous decline in White recruits across every branch of the military since 2018 is fueling a "recruiting crisis" considered the "worst in the history" by one advocacy group, the Daily Caller reported Tuesday.

The Army, Navy and Air Force missed their target numbers by large margins for fiscal year 2023, which ended Sept. 30. Industry analysts, citing the data, say the decline of White recruits "is almost entirely responsible for the recruiting crisis," Will Thibeau, director of the American Military Project at the Claremont Institute, told the Daily Caller.

The data, according to the Daily Caller:

*Army: White recruits went from 44,042 (56.4% of total) in FY2018 to 25,070 (44%) in FY2023;

*Air Force: White recruits went from 21,593 (72.4% of total) in FY2018 to 15,068 (62.9%) in FY2023;

*Navy: White recruits went from 24,343 in FY2018 to 18,205 in FY2023;

*Marine Corps: White recruits went from 21,455 (58% of total) in FY2018 to 14,287 (43%) in FY2023.

Black, Hispanic and Asian recruits increased across the same services, in varying degrees, in that same five-year timeframe, but not enough to offset the decline in White recruiting, according to the report.

"This is a huge blow as the recruiting crisis is the worst in the history of the all-volunteer force," Robert Greenway, director of the Allison Center for National Security at Heritage, told the Daily Caller.

The debate among industry experts is, why the significant drop off in White recruits?

An Air Force spokesperson called the factors "complex and multifaceted." There is "no widely accepted cause," the Army told Military.com last month.

But then there's this:

"Fewer White Americans see the military as a righteous way to serve their country, but it is readily apparent the military is trying to recruit fewer white Americans in order to meet various policies of race composition in place throughout the Armed Forces. For every diversity objective, there is an imperative to reduce the proportion of white recruits. Since 2018, that's exactly what has happened," Thibeau told the Daily Caller.

Well, when you constantly tell Whitey needs not apply this is what happens. They asked for it, they got it. Now they’re surprised?

Wait... They're getting fewer Whites but more BIPOCS? I don't see the problem...

All part of a long range plan.
Woke the military.
White straight males leave or won't join.

Enter the illegals that are made citizens by joining with open arms.

Their really not trying to hide it anymore.

Defend a Country and be sent to die by a .gov that tells you, to your face!: that you are evil, that you are to blame for the ills of society, that you are what's wrong, that you shouldn't be allowed success, that your merits should be discounted, that you are racist, that everything you hold dear was stolen by you and your kind, that you should be replaced.

I did not think the CINC wanted any potential enemies of the state in there?

Electing a potato and making a tranny a four star admiral has consequences, along with family courts, man bashing, and whore culture.

What exactly is any young man fighting for? It is not like there is any real external threat to the Constitution and even if there was, our leftist voting base, corporate donors, and simp congress wouldn't unleash them, allowing them to do their best.

It would also appear that whites have said fuck you get your own blood as well. Blood donations I guess are bad and they are begging for it. Shit all over white people and then wonder why they check out of society

i bet if they broke down the white numbers, they'd see white MEN declining even more and offset somewhat by increases in white WOMEN, meaning it's more woke/worse than the numbers show

The sad thing is that when I was enlisted back in the 80's, it was completely colorblind. The structure of the military kinda makes it that way by default. They had to go out of their way to break it.

Good, b/c f*ck the globalists. Send Schumer, Nuland and other neo-cons first. We should provide them with white horses (I learned from history that white horses are bullet magnets)

I'll believe there's a recruiting problem when they don't make numbers AFTER rolling out $100k bonuses.

They don’t want white folks, and white men in particular. Gotta keep the military full of disposable minorities and women. White men are too effective at killing things and making war.

have seen this in corporate world -- its asinine.

company has 80% market share -- not growing but good business -- that generates millions / billions in Category A

sees they are only 5% market share in Category B

unwisely -- divert lots of resources / assets from Category A to chase incremental growth in Category B

of course it doesn't pan out -- Category A drops from 80% to 60% losing millions / billions in the process. But Category B only goes from 5% to 6%. gains nothing held against the loss of Category A.

but here's the kick in the balls :

the idiots who dreamt this up get promoted despite losing millions. why ? because Category B went up 20%.

so you can rest assured that despite missing quotas -- there are people in some marketing group actually high-fiving each other because they grew minority enlistments even though -- as a whole -- enlistments are in the gutter

87% chance the work of a team of MBAs

So the military is saying they need more WIPEEPO??

We were told they don't need white folks.

Honestly immigrants would make perfect soldiers for the first wave of Task Force Smith 2.0.

That would be a noble path to citizenship or death.

I think white males should be exempt from the draft as well, We have been told white Patriots are dangerous in our current clown world America.

So effective, they had to start making up rules to limit the death toll and make it more difficult to win. Imagine! Rules of war!

It really is amazing.

I consider it a feature, not a bug.

Accurate executive summary.
Most generals and politicians are too high up in their ivory towers to even be able to see it, and the few that do see it suffer cognitive dissonance about it since the above isn't PC enough for them to say out loud.

As I said in some other thread. If Lord Fauntlory of the New American Feudal Empire wants war and he wants his military to be made up entirely of black women. Then I suppose he is going to have a whole lot of dead black women on his hands when he wonderful little pointless war gets going.
