The Army needs to get better at recruiting PSYOP soldiers, general says

Lt. Gen. Jon Braga, head of Army Special Operations Command, told Military Times in an interview that the service has “got to do a better job” of advertising job opportunities for young people.

“If I just said, ‘Hey, you want to come and be a psychological operations operator?’ some people are like, ‘What are you talking about?’ But if I went in and said, ‘Hey, do you want to be a military social media influencer?’ I think I know what you told me just there,” Braga said.

The job of a psychological operations soldier takes “influencer” to the next level. As the Army describes the job field, those soldiers are tasked with swaying the “opinions and actions of foreign governments, groups, and individuals.”
