WaTimes: The Pentagon dropped its COVID-19 vaccination mandate on Tuesday, a policy that resulted in thousands of service members being forced out of the military over their refusal to get the shot.
The order from Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is a result of the fiscal 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, signed by President Biden, that ordered the Defense Department to end the controversial mandate Mr. Austin signed in August 2021 at the height of the coronavirus pandemic.
“No individuals currently serving in the Armed Forces shall be separated solely on the basis of their refusal to receive the COVID-19 vaccination if they sought an accommodation on religious, administrative or medical grounds,” Mr. Austin wrote in Tuesday’s memorandum for senior Pentagon leadership.
However, commanders will be allowed to consider a service member’s immunization status in making deployments, assignments and other operational decisions — including when vaccination is required to travel to a foreign country, the Defense Department said.
Under the mandate, troops were forced out of the military for failing to obey a lawful order. Former personnel will be allowed to petition the Defense Department to request a correction to their personnel records, including the characterization of their discharge. more
After what percentage has been given the JAB and the boosters.
Sure, after the damage has been done. The good guys who refused the jab were drummed out, and the guys that got vaxed are still in, with a ticking time bomb in their veins. Mission accomplished!

Thinking the same.
Austin and the joint Chiefs, have chosen a cowardly, less honorable approach to correcting a FAILED Presidential Policy subjecting military personnel to an untested, experimental injection that has been proven Harmful, causing multiple medical problems and proven to be ineffective.
What about all the Service members forced out of the Military, Lost careers, destroyed families, lost retirements. Is there no reinstatement and restitution for what has happened to them.
Isn’t doing the HONORABLE action, after a failure of leadership policy, to even consider reinstatement for those you destroyed?
I don’t expect the Sec. Def. or the Joint Chiefs to act in an Honorable fashion, after all they are so far removed from real leadership, they are Political Appointed Perfumed Princes who led the failure of the mass evacuation of Afghanistan. They didn’t have a plan, left allies, US Citizens and $80 Billion dollars of military equipment as the disorganized Military fled.
The Political Perfumed Princes are still at the pentagon creating ignorant decisions, following WOK Ideology, teaching appropriate Pro-Nouns and the cult of Climate Change.
Cowards, the lot of them.
And of course, they’ve already voted against reinstating anyone discharged for refusing the jab, ’cause fuck anyone who refuses to obey an illegal order.
Our military leadership is a total disgrace. They are all working for the Chinese Communist Party. When I was in SAC, Communists were targeted for nuclear vaporization. We should have done it when we had the chance.

“Our players, staff, and entire Academy have been so blessed and fortunate to have Hunter as a part of our lives.”

“Hunter was a standout offensive lineman on the Falcon football team and was well-respected in his squadron,” said Lt. Gen. Richard M. Clark, U.S. Air Force Academy Superintendent. “The entire U.S. Air Force Academy mourns his loss, and our hearts and condolences are with his family, his squadron, and all who were touched by this incredible young man.”
.
Even this order specifically permits retribution for not getting the jab. It isn’t near over.
We need a Constitutional Amendment to prohibit the government from ever doing something like this again. Start the petitions right after Nuernberg II trials begin.
Did the Chinese or Russians intentionally cripple their military service members?
judgeroybean^^^ Yes.
