    Under President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, the U.S. military has seen an extraordinary surge in recruitment, reflecting a
    renewed sense of pride and purpose.

    Unfortunately, it is mixed news, because military enrollment grows as the
    US economy tanks.

    True.

    Enlistments levels in peacetime always

    happened during the Bush Recession.
