The branch reported it enlisted nearly 350 soldiers every day that month, Army officials announced Tuesday on social media.

Army recruiting officials expressed their admiration for the challenging job of inspiring the next generation of soldiers to serve. They congratulated the recruiters and encouraged them to continue their excellent work by using the hashtag #BAYCB in a post on X.

The almost 5 percent of jobs cut affected posts that remained empty, according to the Army.
