The Army is preparing to roll out a new policy that could lead to soldiers diagnosed with a chronic skin condition that causes painful razor bumps and scarring to be kicked out of the service -- an issue that disproportionately affects Black men.
According to (and I’m not checking how good these sources are so whatever) thegunzone.com 17% of the us mitary is black men.
Thats 2.6million apparently, which means 500,000 in terms of active, reserved, and civilian members of defense. 1.26 million is the active number, or about 225k troops.
83% of that is about 188k active troops with the condition.
Total including reserves and civilians in the defense industry, yes. About half that number is active, about 1/4 reserves, and 1/4 defense industry civilians.

Did you happen to see or know the total active military personnel to know what % of the US military that 188k will be?
Edit: nvm I googled it lol its 2.86 million so that’d be 6% of total military personnel
