President Donald Trump is following through on his promise to reinstate service members who were kicked out of the military for refusing to comply with Covid-19 mandates.Trump is signing an executive order directing the Department of Defense to bring back the affected service members and restore them to their prior rank.

“The Executive Order directs the Secretary of Defense to reinstate all members of the military (active and reserve) who were discharged for refusing the COVID vaccine and who request to be reinstated,” reads a White House fact obtained by obtained by Fox News.The fact sheet notes that over 8,000 troops were discharged because of their Covid-19 vaccination status from 2021-23 and only 43 returned after the Biden administration’s Department of Defense removed its vaccine mandate. It is unclear how many service members will rejoin the military now that Trump is in office and providing back pay.
