RE: Mandatory Service Requirement

in #politics7 years ago (edited)

Short of a world war, I don't agree with the use of stop-loss. Once again, it completely devastates morale and fucks up the unit from the inside out. It's hard enough dealing with people who joined completely voluntarily and are just biding their time. I am included in that. I couldn't wait to get out towards the end of my enlistment and I joined 100% motivated.

Edit: To clarify, I believe in desperate measures like stop-loss if we are truly under a major threat or invasion. A world war or something of that nature. So I do believe it has a place in the contract, I just don't see it's use as it has been in years past a just use of that clause, but hey, that's just my two cents as a lowly enlisted jarhead. lol
