Recruiters always under

a lot of pressure to meet the quotas - imagine how they feel if they were assigned to recruit rather than volunteering to do it! It's kind of strange because that's the way it was during the VN war too, during any war I guess - need as many troops as possible and they don't get too picky about it.
I wonder if all the media noise about recruitment troubles is setting us up for something else? We'd have to know about these troubles in order to accept a draft I imagine.

Recruiters *prey* on young people. sm
You do realize recruiters are part of the military you scream so loudly that you support. Recruiters have always come to high schools. I happen to think that the military is a fine career. No one is twisting anyone's arm. Military has been a part of our existence since we settled here and had the calvary. You are suggesting that high school students have no free will. That isn't logical in the least.
channel 2 reported on recruiters tactics
Channel 2 did a bit on their nightly news. I believe it was a college paper reporter who went undercover and told the recruiters he had done drugs and other things that would have disqualified him and the recruiters were salivating at the thought of signing him up and told him ways to get into the service even though. These recruiters would take a dead man if his body was still warm, for pete sake. I say, you need people in the military, check out the people in the administration, ask if their children will join for the *better good of all to bring democracy to the world*.
