I think it more means the recruiting numbers suck and someone high enough at the Pentagon decided for better theatrics.
The Army’s New Recruitment Video Means Only One Thing
The U.S. Army on Monday released a recruitment ad that critics argue is a sure sign the military is gearing up for war.
There are no signs of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the 30-second spot, which features white males jumping out of a plane.
“Your greatest victories are never achieved alone,” text in the ad reads. “Be all you can be.”
It comes two years after the Army pushed an animated video series, “The Calling,” that checked all the woke boxes.
💪 Together, we can take on any challenge.
