Geeeez-UH!....I am sick of needle in the arm photos. Not to mention masks.
A travesty. Likely they are discharging good soldiers and sailors. This will hurt US military readiness and effectiveness.
My understanding is they are getting good conduct discharges. I am happy about that. For the young ones, if they do not have 3 years in, they will not get the GI Bill or some versions of it. That is my understanding.
But they can make room for murderers to join the Navy courtesy of George Soros, The Democrats and Chesa Boudin, the son of terrorists.
I shit you not.
When the matter came to Chesa Boudin, ..., he refused to charge them and let them walk. One of them is reportedly trying to get into the Navy now ..."
