Over 200 active duty and retired service members are vowing to hold the Biden administration accountable for 'trampling' on their rights by enforcing the COVID-19 vaccine mandate. 

The mandate enacted in August 2021 led to the forced firing of over 8,000 service members who refused the shot on religious or medical grounds. 

On New Year's Day, over 200 service members declared that they will do 'everything' in their power to get accountability since not a single leader has resigned or been held to account despite the rollback of the vaccine mandate last year.

In a letter obtained by DailyMail.com, the current and former troops accuse Biden's military brass of 'continuing to ignore' their pleas to correct the 'injuries and laws that were broken.' 

They are threatening to even force Biden's top leaders to be brought out of retirement so they can be court-martialed and held to account.

'While implementing the COVID-19 vaccine mandate, military leaders broke the law, trampled constitutional rights, denied informed consent, permitted unwilling medical experimentation, and suppressed the free exercise of religion,' the letter states. 

It goes on to say both service members and their families were 'significantly harmed' and their 'suffering continues to be felt financially, emotionally, and physically.' 

'Some service members became part of our ever-growing veteran homeless population, some developed debilitating vaccine injuries, and some even lost their lives,' the letter continues.

The mandate was eventually rescinded in the December 2022 defense authorization bill, but it did not reinstate service members who were fired for not receiving the shot nor provide any other compensation.

In the open letter, they explicitly name now-retired and still serving top commanders that they are demanding accountability from. 

Those include the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley who exited the military in October and Gen. James McConville who served as the 40th chief of staff of the Army until 2023.

'These individuals enabled lawlessness and the unwilling experimentation on service members,' they state.

'The moral and physical injuries they helped inflict are significant. They betrayed the trust of service members and the American people. Their actions caused irreparable harm to the Armed Forces and the institutions for which we have fought and bled.'

They have 'refused to resign' or take any accountability for their actions, the service members state.

The letter goes on to mutually pledge to hold them to account through 'lawful word and action.' 

It is signed by a handful of candidates who are running for Congress in 2024 including Mara Macie, a military spouse in Florida, and Cameron Hamilton in Virginia, a former Navy SEAL.
