On one hand, I bet a lot of the would be recruits have realized this administration hates them and isn't worth fighting for.
On the other hand I bet there has been an uptick in the percentage of non whites because the military has basically become a jobs program for young men with nowhere else to go.
Doubt it, why join the army when you can join the more effective and lucrative cartels and drug gangs.
because you don't get proper paid military training in a cartel that's why it's military to cartel and now you have less of your people getting trained up and the military being filled with the diverse instead.
It sounds as though blacks & Latinos have indeed been comprising a bigger % of the new recruits, but only because the white men's % has been going down, not because any more of them are actually enlisting than in previous years.
IOW, despite everything - all the pandering, hype around a more diverse military, and whatever material benefits they're offering to the 'POCs' who they have determined to be America's future - the US military is still less successful at actually recruiting hoodrats & illegals with no prospects in life than the Western Roman Empire was at recruiting barbarian foederati.
