"Roughly 8,400 active duty servicemembers have been removed for refusing vaccine orders, according to the latest DOD data shared with the DCNF. The Army tallied a 97% vaccination rate as of Dec. 16, but roughly 9,000 soldiers remain unvaccinated."
If it is the same across all services as it was in the Army, only 3% are willing to try to dodge the clot shot. This 3% wouldn't be enough to help in a balkanization scenario. You'd need whole National Guard units to pledge allegiance to your new cause; 3%, even if it was the leaders (it wasn't, they pushed this nonsense) won't be enough to coalesce into a new fighting force.

'based' (gawd I hate that word) Military?
You mean the same people who name their ships in honour of LGBT (Harvey Milk)? You mean the same military whom Kay Griggs exposed as being a homosexual mafia? The same military which permitted and promoted Satanic Psy Op behemoth Col Richard Aquino? The same military who fly over the world imposing their rainbow nonsense on religious countries? The US and UK are not 'BASED', they're debased.
Generally speaking, E5 and below are non career and could be considered "based" from a demographic, bayesian, perspective. E6 and above want a retirement. Officers below O4 just want to lock in that promotion because it's "up or out" and O5 and above have sold their soul to the company store.
I don't blame regular members of the military for stupid shit admirals/generals and worse, the various "secretaries of XXXX" and elected officials foist upon them.
I hear what you're saying but cancer spreads. Consider this article written by two instructors who are in charge of training young officers at Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. This might be the British Army, but the 'Special Relationship' essentially means it also reflects what young American officers will be taught too.
I remember seeing a photo of a young West Point student proudly showing off his hammer and sickle tee-shirt underneath his military dress. Wish I could find it. NCSWIC indeed.
That newly commissioned officer you're referring too, was mustered out after the controversy from his photos. West Point, though, has gone mostly woke, but that's another thread. I would rather have a mustang officer, or OCS grad, than some service academy ring knocker, in charge. This has always been the case though.
Brit military is worse than the American for wokeness. And yea, there are dirtbags at all paygrades.
