I have worked with a variety of recruiters in and out of the service. The pressures on these young soldiers is intense. One friend broke state recruiting records for enlisting X amount of soldiers. He was given a plaque, letters of accomodations, a handful of "attaboys", and told to try and get XX amount of soldiers for the next quarter.

I have the highest regard for those that are recruiters.
