📣 Veterans and Soldiers: What is your favorite Army cadence?

Military cadences keep Soldiers motivated and united. Share your favorite!

@WhiteHouse Big strong

@WhiteHouse Motivation!

sure reminds me how long ago we did that at Ft.Ord!

Can’t compete with this.

"Step by step, these songs have kept us united.

@WhiteHouse I tried this before Regardless of my ASVAB they desperately wanted to rush the process & force me into a job I didn't want, on top of lying to my face by pretending you could change contracted jobs after enlistment Basically, the recruiters committed fraud No thanks

@WhiteHouse I had the opportunity to call cadence in basic training and I loved it so much! There was a bird On a window sill...

And they’re dumb and annoying.

@WhiteHouse Thank you all for your service

❤️🩶💙🇺🇸🫡

@WhiteHouse Army commercial with a Whites drill instructor?!? If you’re not buying Lockheed stocks you should be lmao

Garbage, too many useless females!

I believe you were going for “this WILL defend”. (Just so ya know)

@WhiteHouse Until political correctness invaded the military, and then many cadences were forbidden due to colorful language or content…

Please allow men & women who would make great soldiers in the Army to enlist, even if they are currently barred due to misdemeanors committed in their past some dating back 15 years. I urge you to reconsider & lighten the enlistment requirements regarding old misdemeanors.

My, isn't that sweet. I guess you can't do any favs from the past, huh? Like "I wish that all the ladies."

As a Vet, running to cadence has helped me to maintain the warrior spirit and honor those who can’t lace up because they paid the ultimate sacrifice. 🫡

BY TARA COPP AND ANTHONY IZAGUIRRE WASHINGTON — The Trump Administration has halted the firings of hundreds of federal employees who were tasked with working on the nation’s nuclear weapons programs, in an about-face that has left workers confused and experts cautioning that DOGE’s blind cost cutting will put communities at risk. Three U.S. officials who spoke to The Associated Press said up to 350 employees at the National Nuclear Security Administration were abruptly laid off late Thursday, with some losing access to email before they’d learned they were fired, only to try to enter their offices on Friday morning to find they were locked out. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation. One of the hardest hit offices was the Pantex Plant near Amarillo, Texas, which saw about 30% of the cuts. Those employees work on reassembling warheads, one of the most sensitive jobs across the nuclear weapons enterprise, with the highest levels of clearance. The hundreds let go at NNSA were part of a DOGE purge across the Department of Energy that targeted about 2,000 employees. “The DOGE people are coming in with absolutely no knowledge of what these departments are responsible for,” said Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association, referencing Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency team. “They don’t seem to realize that it’s actually the department of nuclear weapons more than it is the Department of Energy.”By late Friday night, the agency’s acting director, Teresa Robbins, issued a memo rescinding the firings for all but 28 of those hundreds of fired staff members. “This letter serves as formal notification that the termination decision issued to you on Feb. 13, 2025 has been rescinded, effective immediately,” said the memo, which was obtained by the AP. The accounts from the three officials contradict an official statement from the Department of Energy, which said fewer than 50 National Nuclear Security Administration staffers were let go, calling them “probationary employees” who “held primarily administrative and clerical roles.” But that wasn’t the case. The firings prompted one NNSA senior staffer to post a warning and call to action. “This is a pivotal moment. We must decide whether we are truly committed to leading on the world stage or if we are content with undermining the very systems that secure our nation’s future,” deputy division director Rob Plonski posted to LinkedIn. “Cutting the federal workforce responsible for these functions may be seen as reckless at best and adversarily opportunistic at worst.”
