Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) this week revealed several instances where service members were forced to classify themselves by race and socio-economic status during diversity and inclusion training.
In one instance, Crenshaw said soldiers were forced to wear personal identification badges that listed their race, ethnicity, social class, and other things, during at training at Fort Bliss in Texas.
Crenshaw said the badges reduced soldiers to a list of characteristics that have “nothing to do with their service or their training or the content of their character.” He added:
Most soldiers do not believe that they are the sum of identity groups and it’s absurd

Thank goodness they'll be able to tell who is black from those who are white. It's SOOO hard to tell without labels.

I went to Vietnam because of the draft but I would tell anyone to stay out of the military now.

Back in the day we were told by the DI's that there was only one color in the Marine Corps, and that color was green.

Reminds me of those capitalist roaders with signs around their necks in struggle sessions during the cultural revolution.
In fact, seems identical.

If a man can identify as a women, or a woman as a man, then anyone should certainly be able to identify as a completely different race or ethnicity. Until a DNA test is mandatory, that is. But then, the same could be said for any transgender. The DNA doesn't lie, does it?

A subordinate commander should have his troops show up wearing labels such as tank commander, gunner, loader, truck driver, supply clerk, platoon leader, intel specialist, etc. Well, I can dream can't I?

Our enemies are laughing at this as they prepare their military for real combat.

Social class? I would identify as a baloney sandwich (a la Fifth Element). Don't you dare infringe upon my right to identify myself any way I want!

Like #18 what he h@ll is social class in America.?. Especially in the military we are to all be one under God. No stratification of class.
It is unAmerican to try to define people by classes. i hate it when commentators, even conservative ones, talk of the elites and the working class. This terminology is pure communism in our society.

Back during the Nazi era in Germany certain classes of people, especially Jews were required to wear a sign on their clothing. Looks like the leftist and socialist Harris-Biden Administration have the same idea for the US military based upon a soldier’s race. If that continues it is bound to cause a lot of legitimate future warriors to stay out of the US military and take up another career instead.

We should know by now that "content of their character" is a white supremacist concept, according to the new Woke doctrine.

I wonder about the SOCIAL CLASS part. I never thought of it until recently. A social worker came to our house to check on us when we were in the process of adopting half a dozen children in one bunch. A following report said that we were "lower middle class." We were married, had two vehicles and a paid-off home. At work I was two links down from the Governor. Perhaps I should have worn a tie. I could go back to school, but I think that one PhD is enough. Recently a woman from New England did not want to enter my house because it was a "trailer." May the trailer bit was the positioning item. I suspect the SOCIAL CLASS thing is offensive.
