Being a 20-year U.S. Army military veteran (see About The Author), I want to give insights on how to Make the U.S. Army Great Again. Maybe some soldiers with a lot of rank, some pull, and some balls will show this website to high-ranking military folks, Secretary of Defense – Peter Brian Hegseth and even President Donald J. Trump himself, that have the authority to make changes and MAGA.

Here are the points I’m going to cover:
- Bring Back The ‘Shark Attack’
- Recondo Schools on all major Army bases
- Bring Back the 02-Year Enlistment
- Beef-Up Recruitment
- Yearly Pay Bonuses
- Fat Boy Program
- Mess Halls
- Fix The QMP
- Subject Matter Experts (SMEs)

OK, let’s start with Bring Back The ‘Shark Attack’
–
–
The Shark Attack!
–
On 20 September 2020, the headline read: “No More Drill Sergeant ‘Shark Attack’: Army Moves Toward Kinder Basic Training Start.” The U.S. Army decided to delete the Shark Attack from Army Basic Training. First, bring the General that authorized this and give him my home address and I’ll put a ‘boot up his ass.’ I’ll give him a ‘Kiwi Express’ myself. When you baby recruits and pass them through Basic Training, AIT,… you’re filling the Army ranks with softer, gentler – ‘get everybody killed’ soldiers. Yes, I’ll still call them soldiers but not my kind of soldier.
–
Bring back the ‘Shark Attack’ in:
- Basic Training
- Advanced Individual Training (AIT)
- Jump School
- Ranger School (City Week – Morgan Committee)
- Special Forces Assessment and Selection
–
The ‘Shark Attack’ towards trainees, candidates, instills and enhances:
- Discipline
- Teamwork
- Esprit De Corps
- Attention To Detail
- Proficiency
- Bonding of Troops
- Leadership
- Morale
- Pride
Think of there was no ‘Shark Attack’ towards American recruits during World War II, Korean War, Vietnam, and Gulf Wars, I gotta tell you, there would have been a lot more American soldiers, airman, sailors and marines coming home in body bags.
So, Secretary of Defense – Peter Brian Hegseth or even President Donald J. Trump himself, bring back the ‘Shark Attack.’

Recondo School!
–
Recondo School is like a small U.S. Army Ranger School. When I was a know-nuthin Private in the 82nd Airborne, I was sent to the 03-week 82nd Airborne Recondo School. Being in the Infantry, even though my AIT was Infantry, I still didn’t know sh!+ from Shinola about Infantry. Well, that 03-week Recondo School fixed that problem. I attended a lot of training, a lot of schools during my 20-year military career, and the 82nd Airborne Recondo School will always stand-out in my training and memories.
And even though most MOSs (military jobs) in the Army have nothing to do with Infantry, the Recondo School still made you a better soldier, cause YOU JUST NEVER KNOW. Remember the very beginning of the Korean War? Both Chinese and North Koreans forces advancing southward, almost pushed the South Korean and American militaries into the ocean. EVERY AMERICAN dropped what they were doing and picked up a weapon, THEY WERE NOW IN THE INFANTRY!
The Recondo School would be run by ALL U.S. Army qualified Rangers who already earned the ‘Black and Gold.’ The Recondo School is 21-days, with a basecamp in the woods on the military reservation. It would be open to all volunteers both officers and enlisted and both male and female. However, females would have their own Recondo School held once or twice a year depending on the number of volunteers. All Recondo candidtes are partly sterile and wear no rank.
Recondo Training includes:
- Shark Attacks
- Physical Training every morning
- Road Marches
- Drill & Ceremonies
- Military History
- Basic Patrolling Classes
- Basic Map Reading
- Day Navigation (buddy system)
- Night Navigation (buddy system)
- Marksmanship Training (using the Laydon Technique)
- Radio Communication
- Basic Indirect Fire
- SERE Training
- 01-Day Daylight Patrol
- Refit – Rappelling Classes
- 02-Day Day & Night Patrols
- Refit – Heliborne Classes
- 03-Day Day & Night Patrols
- Refit – Knots & River Rope Bridges
- 04-Day Day & Night Patrols
- Refit – Counseling
- Recondo Graduation Ceremonies (At Graduation Ceremonies, each Recondo Graduate will be issued a Recondo patch for their BDUs and Recondo colored patch for their Dress Uniform with Official Military Orders and a Recondo School Diploma). Top Recondo Graduates will also be offered a chance to attend U.S. Army Ranger School. But before you attend the U.S. Army Ranger School, YOU MUST READ about my (author) own experiences in my Survival Book below.
So, Secretary of Defense – Peter Brian Hegseth or even President Donald J. Trump himself, authorize 03-week Recondo Schools on all major military Army bases in the U.S. and abroad.

02-Year Enlistment!
–
In my humble opinion, the 02-Year Enlistment for recruits is actually a testing, a feeling-out period for recruits. And a small percentage of those recruits (10% – 20%), will actually:
- Re-enlist for the same MOS (job) for 03 or 04-years with or without a re-enlistment bonus.
- Join the National Guard
- Join the Reserves
But whether decide to re-enlist or not, they are a better more mature American citizen.
So, Secretary of Defense – Peter Brian Hegseth or even President Donald J. Trump himself, bring back the 02-Year Enlistment.

Recruitment!
–
Recruitment should be beefed-up in areas besides the recruiting stations. Valuable recruitment is being missed in:
- JROTC in High Schools
- SROTC in Colleges & Universities
- Military Academies
- West Point Academy
- Officer Basic Course
These areas are being missed for recruiting and are valuable sources for THOUSANDS of future extremely intelligent and mature Officers to MAGA!
So, Secretary of Defense – Peter Brian Hegseth or even President Donald J. Trump himself, beef-up the recruitment for future Officers to MAGA!

Yearly Pay Bonuses!
–
YES YES, I already know military personnel are already getting their:
- Basic Pay
- Separations Pay
- Overseas Pay
- Hazardous Duty Pay
- Jump Pay
- Flight Pay
- Diving Pay
- Foreign Language Pay
- Hostile Fire Pay
- OK, you got the idea.
–
If there is one thing that MOTIVATES a soldier besides a great delicious meal (keep reading), IT IS MONEY! I believe extra Yearly Bonus Pay should be going to those MOS (Military Occupation Specialties) that are instrumental in the:
- Morale
- Fighting Spirit
- Lethality
- Backbone
of the U.S. Army and to MAGA.
