A huge tragedy and loss! Rest in peace, Warriors!
I remember when my stepfather was a recruiter back in the 80s. I would constantly hear him complain about the quotas placed on recruiters, the amount of hours spent on kids/parents only to have a huge "NO" at the end of all that work, liberal minded teachers/parents that thwarted his best efforts. He never made any bogus promises to any potential recruits because he believed honesty was the best policy. Looking back, it's no wonder his drinking increased and his surliness got worse! I was his easiest recruit!
