I seem to recall reading an article sometime earlier this year that the USN was having trouble fully staffing its aircraft carriers as well. They can find the minimum required crew but that's like a half of the crew these ships usually have.
US armed forces overall are having a recruitment issue, period.
Turns out that the majority of armed forces recruits were family generational, and they began actively discouraging those individuals from joining, expecting for women and diversity hires to take up the slack.
With the left trying to disenfranchise Rural America because "corn doesn't vote," you'd think the bugmen living in their hive cities would pick up the slack.
