Probably found that 90% of the results didn't line with Pete fantasy of what real men should be.

It's Hegseth's military so I'm gonna guess they just realized they don't have the supplies they need to do the job, rather than any benign or sensible reason.
With 2.1 million troops my estimate is 5808 testosterone blood tests need to be processed per day - and they aren't like pathogen screenings where you can batch by mixing blood from 1000 people and run one lab test, then binary search if positive. Every person needs individualised metrics
That's probably 100 full time staff to draw the bloods alone assuming they can do 60 per day working 7 days a week. Unless bloods are already a part of the annual check?
I'm guessing blood draw is already part of the annual checks, but the testing is where it's going to be a problem.
Troops already get blood drawn every two years, specifically for HIV screening but for general health purposes and tracking as well.
pretty likely. when ever these fools try and implement these sort of things they always fail to realize it's a medical process that requires blood drawn and lab work. it's not as simple as they always seem to think.
I know it's not his line, but it fits. "Nobody knew this would be so complicated. Nobody."
small-d donnie has issued an executive order that no one can have testosterone levels higher than his own!!!
Does this mean Hegseth won’t be personally tasting semen samples in the locker rooms? It’s not gay if you’re only checking for testosterone levels.
