Pentagon Mulls Recruiting Campaign Honoring Charlie Kirk

Pentagon officials are considering a new military recruiting campaign aimed at paying tribute to the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, NBC News reported, citing insiders.

The potential campaign, using a national call to service theme with a slogan like "Charlie has awakened a generation of warriors," could involve Kirk's student group, Turning Point USA, and U.S. universities as recruitment hubs.

Led by Anthony Tata, undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, the initiative faces opposition within the Pentagon, fearing it might seem exploitative of Kirk's death.
