[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 585531, member: 1963"] Wakegirl, don't forget that recruiters are highly trained salespeople who earn points for each warm body they push through the mill. husband was a drill sergeant for two years. He didn't sign up for another tour as such because he couldn't handle the difficult children. He always said he was trying to build the very best soldiers he could, not run a federally funded reform school. Immaturity is one thing and some ADHD folks, husband included, do very well in the military because of the structure, but entitled brats don't usually do well. It doesn't look good on a DS's record when his recruits wash out due to behavioral problems that the military is not there to fix. I hope it works out for him and this is just in my opinion, but it is what it is. [/QUOTE]
