The U.S. Army is offering its largest enlisting bonus ever to entice recruits to join for six years, as the service struggles to hire skilled recruits amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The Army Recruiting Command announced in a press release on Wednesday that a bonus of up to $50,000 will be given to qualified individuals who sign on for a six-year active-duty enlistment.
