FILE - Army Secretary Christine Wormuth, testifies before a Senate Armed Services committee May 5, 2022, on Capitol Hill in Washington. The Army plans to increase its investment in marketing and is expected to expand a new program for struggling recruits, but leaders offered few new details on how they'll fill the ranks after falling far short of recruiting goals this year. Wormuth told reporters on Oct. 10 that a new recruiting task force is coming up with ideas.
Asked if there is any sense the Army will be able to meet its goal this year, Wormuth said it is too early to speculate. During a trip to see the program at Fort Jackson, S.C., in August, McConville had said that the program could get set up at three other Army training bases. Commanders had suggested they could put up to 10,000 potential recruits through the classes.
