Leaked Document Shows Army Plans To Mandate COVID Vaccines For Service Members

Federalist –

The U.S. Army is looking to mandate COVID-19 vaccinations for all of its service members as soon as Sept. 1, pending full Food and Drug Administration (FDA) licensure, according to a document obtained by the Army Times. The directive reportedly comes in the form of an execute order from the Department of the Army Headquarters.

“Commanders will continue COVID-19 vaccination operations and prepare for a directive to mandate COVID-19 vaccination for service members [on or around] 01 September 2021, pending full FDA licensure,” the obtained execute order reportedly says. “Commands will be prepared to provide a backbrief on servicemember vaccination status and way ahead for completion once the vaccine is mandated.”

Execute orders, or EXORDS, are issued by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, at the direction of the secretary of defense, to implement a presidential decision to initiate specific military operations.

When pressed by the Army Times on the matter, an Army representative refused to address the issue.

“As a matter of policy we do not comment on leaked documents. The vaccine continues to be voluntary,” said Maj. Jackie Wren. “If we are directed by DoD to change our posture, we are prepared to do so.”

The purported push for mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations among U.S. military personnel is not exclusive to the Army, however. According to recent comments from Chief of Naval Personnel Vice Adm. John Nowell, the U.S. Navy is also looking at requiring its members to get the jab once the FDA fully approves it. read more

  1. If the soldiers¹ come to believe that taking the mandated injection would violate the trust of their fellow warriors then there will be wide-spread refusals: mutiny.

    I would like to see that happen.

  2. Never brought a vaccine to market before covid (Moderna and Johnson & Johnson).

    Are serial felons (Pfizer, and Astra Zeneca).

    Are both (Johnson & Johnson).

  3. I can say from my experience in the Navy (86-97) we were ordered to take many vaccinations. Most were for deployments to areas where most travelers would be required to also need vaccinations , malaria etc . During Desert Storm there were quite a few new ones , Anthrax in particular , bromine tablets, and others I can’t remember . We spent several days wearing full CPO suits and MCU2Papa gas masks in the Northern end of the Gulf , the smoke from the oil well fires made the skies dark as night at noon . We had several chemical attack alarms go off and survey teams tested positive for Sarin . I’m getting off track here , but the point being you couldn’t refuse the shots as you were “gov’t property” and it came with the job knowingly , part of signing up , just like staying within physical standards . I believe not taking a covid shot if mandated would lead to some “other than honorable” discharge . Meaning goodbye veterans benefits perhaps , GI Bill , VA home loans , VA Medical , but I am no expert . When I was an NCO I had to make sure everyone got in that line and got whatever friggin shot was ordered . Sillyvillians don’t understand this but certainly veterans of my era of service do .
