Maybe these young potential recruits need an agent representing them when dealing with the US Military....something like a player agent in professional sports.....or better yet a union. A soldiers' union; I'll bring it up at the AFL-CIO meeting in two weeks in Chicago. I get to go for a day or maybe two, and hope to return unbloodied. It would be a real service for someone to make those recruiters put their promises on paper and have the 'contract' duly notarized. It might stop some of the outrageous lies and deception. (wonder how many 'recruits' they would sign up then) |

(wonder how many 'recruits' they would sign up then) Their promises are put on paper. It's called an Enlistment Contract. http://usmilitary.about.com/library/pdf/enlistment.pdf Read it carefully. -- John H. On the 'PocoLoco' out of Deale, MD |
