The United States military celebrated 50 years of an"all volunteer" Armed Forces on Saturday, which marked five decades since the elimination of the draft.
"Today’s U.S. military is the most combat-capable, combat-credible fighting force the world has ever known, and that’s due to the millions of exceptional and selfless men and women who have raised their hand over the last five decades and taken an oath to protect and defend our country, our Constitution, and our American way of life."
The decision to move to an all-volunteer force was a"bold move," Austin said in a statement on Saturday. But one he claims has paid off in a"stronger" and more professional military.
