I served on active duty for almost 35 years, retired in 2008. I cannot imagine what is going on inside the services today. It's little wonder the services are almost unable to recruit sufficient numbers to fill their ranks.

That said, given the way the military services are employed, I doubt seriously whether we ever will need robust military formations in combat to fight any enemy. Nearly all military operations are carried out without the need for large numbers of ground troops. We either send drones or special operations personnel. So, it's fair to conclude that maintaining a large military establishment is more of a deterrent than a real threat to potential enemies. It's numbers that matter more than combat readiness. Pity those who now are serving; they, like the rest of us "useless eaters," serve a very limited purpose in the big scheme of things.

I have some simple questions. Has the Russian military all gotten the m-RNA jab? Has the Chinese PRC Army all gotten the m-RNA jab? And our "leaders" want our soldiers (young men) to get the M-RNA jab with the risks? Simple questions.. where are answers? I think I know. I think treason is involved. Oh - 30 yrs USAFR Flight surgeon O-6 retired here,( in a prior century.)

Hello Bob,

Thank you for being here and for your service!

I’ve heard (confirmation needed) the Chinese have not accepted mRNA shots yet and never implemented vaccine mandates. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-07-08/beijing-revokes-first-ever-vaccine-mandate-after-public-outcry

Russia’s Sputnik V vaccine is an adenoviral vector DNA vaccine. Putin rejected mandating them last year: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/05/27/russia-covid-vaccines-wont-be-compulsory-putin-says-amid-skepticism.html

From the beginning I have worried that the CCP will release a bug which only the vaccinated will fall to. None of the Chinese got the Western vaccines so the normal risk of biological warfare would not be a deterrent. How do you say "Leg Room" in Mandarin?

correct. If some "smart" person says the Chinese military got the shot, know that Chinese are using an attenuated virus shot, not m-RNA.... totally different. Our flu shots are attenuated virus (and don't work very well by the way)

I am not fearful of COVID. I am fearful of the COVID genetic injection which contains elements not found in nature which might make those injected with it uniquely susceptible to another bioweapon. Who are logically our enemies? Those who might covet our land, the land-strapped Communist Chinese.

I've been saying that about my country and the USA, they are disabling their military. I have to assume the same for Australia, NZ, Europe, etc
