...Demands, Is a Draft Next? Having decided to increase the size of the standing ARMY might the Pentagon need to re-institute the draft to complete the missions overseas while securing the mainland?
 
There will not be a draft.

He has said that the bulk of the increase will come from increased recruitment and fast-tracking those recruits still awaiting entry.
 
How, how, HOW the hell do people keep making this leap that the draft will be reinstated!? Recruiters are turning people away (those that may need waivers and may likely be accepted with said waiver, et al.). Sure, the military wants to drag a bunch of pukes kicking and screaming into the service. That will be a really effective fighting force. Service is voluntary... the problem at this point is funding. Lay your sweet little head to rest knowing that plenty of grim men and women still stand between you and the big, scary world.
