I know reddit is worse than its ever been and has always been astroturfed but once in a great while I still stare into the abyss and let me tell you… internet-delenda-est

The fact that they’re all saying the coast guard too, like is this the new recruiting tactic? sell the one that has less of a murder-y reputation, then when they can’t get into that they just go with whatever they qualify for?

At least the top comment is better

    Many years ago I was in a unit with a First Sergeant that had a small swastika tattoo on his hand. He had this before he enlisted sometime in the early/mid 90’s. It did not disqualify him from enlistment.

    Anything… and I mean, anything, that could disqualify a potential recruit can be “waivered” away if anybody in the process chooses.
