"Tom Beard" wrote in hlink.net: With recruiting at record levels, Record low levels, perhaps. The various recruiters for ALL services are turning away people because quotas are full. And you think deleting the url completely contradicting that fantasy is going to make reality go away? You mean this one? http://abcnews.go.com/sections/wnt/U...nt_040602.html How about this one? http://www.military.com/NewsContent/...041404,00.html Or this one? http://usmilitary.about.com/cs/joini...cruitgoals.htm Or this one? http://msnbc.msn.com/id/3540775/ Even the ABC story you giggle at is slanted to the National Guard and Reserve recruitment issue, NOT the active force. Congress needs to authorize a larger active force and the need for NG/Reserve forces will diminish. I think we're quibbling over the meaning of words here. After NG and Reserve units and personnel are activated and shipped over to Iraq, they are considered part of the active force.....not the regular component, to be sure, but as much a part of the actives doing the fighting as the full-time professionals are. NG units and personnel in particular are removed from the legal control of their respective state AGs when they're activated and are placed under the legal control of the DOD. George Z. |
