The U.S. Air Force motto to “aim high” will be impossible for the unvaccinated faithful in its ranks, as those asking for religious exemptions from the COVID-19 shots are being grounded and terminated.
As of March 15, 2022, the Air Force reported that it had rejected 5,259 religious accommodation requests and had granted only 23. That is a 99.6 percent rejection rate, according to a lawsuit against President Joe Biden’s administration brought by 36 members of the Air Force, Air Force Reserve, and Air National Guard.
