US Army facing major decline in white recruits: Report

  • The Army's recruitment of white soldiers has significantly declined in the last five years, contributing to the overall recruitment shortfall and straining the force.
  • From 2018 to 2023, white recruits decreased by 43%, while the percentage of Black and Hispanic recruits increased. The reason for the decline is unclear.
  • Several factors may contribute to the recruiting problem, including partisan scrutiny, an obesity epidemic, and an underfunded public education system. Army officials are concerned but face challenges in addressing the issue amidst increasing partisan attacks.
