Are army recruitment numbers in the US way down over the last decade? It seems to me that the illusion of the US military being a force for good in the world has been shattered in Canada at least, and anti war sentiment has also been spreading towards some right wing movements in the states. That’s gotta be reflected in the recruitment numbers right?
Yes.
I don't have specifics but I'm pretty sure every branch has missed their recruitment goals this year, likely several years.
20 years in Afghanistan is not a good look.
