Army raises enlistment age; Reserves WILL NOT hit Targets

Link: Army raises enlistment age.

Once again, Dadmanly will have to figure a twist to this story so he can keep the impression up that there is nothing wrong with Army recruiting. We are now raising the age to 42 and the reserves have already conceded they will not hit their target this year.

Imagine that! Just a few months ago Dadmanly, Greyhawk and I jabbed as they said there was no problem in recruiting and he was wondering why no one reported it. My response was that now one with a brain in their head believed that. I also have talked about the Army reducing standards for a number of months.

Now, we have proof that I was right. Man, arguing with the far right wing military lunatics is like cow-tipping.

UPDATE: I forgot about this exchange with Blackfive when he was touting that all recruiting was going great. IRR Soldier and I tried to explain to them how their numbers were so tainted that the claim that recruiting was going fine was idiotic. We go the normal "You are a traitor" intellectual argument. Well, looks like we were right.

Can't make your numbers? Lower the standards. I am sure the active army can make their numbers if they accept every human being who can fog a mirror.
