Apo 00211,  army recruiting come answers critic i read a recent article Hal took me Back to the year 1976. Recruiting scandal reported in army Battal  from 1976 to 1980 my husband served As an army Recruiter. The Cream of the crop so they say. A great assignment the envy fall Welt the Nightmare resumed today. I could write a Book on a my recruiting the loss of Trust in people and the dog eat dog attitudes. Furthermore there were always endless hours on the phone calling applicants going to their houses and most of the Lime having doors slammed in your face. The pressure by higher authority to meet quotas or fact a ruined career record was the cause for great menial stress. Army recruiting is something you cannot under stand until you have walked in their Shon. Is a Job that requires More than being Alt that you can be. I watched Strong marriages end in total loss drink ing problems develop nervous breakdowns and even suicide. You might be saying to yourself that this is All Over die world not just in recruiting. For 19 years 1 have been a dedicated wife. I have an open mind and believe thai god will keep one Strong if he has Faith in the lord i lost a great Deal ores Sci for Chr army recruiting command because the pressure applied was overwhelming. To voice my opinion on this subject matter is something thai will continue until the army and All branches of the military Tower the quotas which is probably never or Call Back a draft which no one wants. This scandal will pass and you can be sure another will come along. In the four years i experienced in recruiting i saw recruiters that did not make quotas disciplined with punishment with reassign merits to other duties writ ten reprimands and bad ears and oers. Their Pride was taken away. There is no excuse far dishonesty then again in this Type of situation it is Only human nature which permits one s conscience to oversee this dishonesty. You become brainwashed. If your career reputation and possibly the welfare of your family were on the line would you not consider breaking a regu lation in turn relieving the pressure put upon you by higher authority deep Down inside you probably would. But definitely you arc saying no in Public because you do not want to be stereotyped As a Cheater or a dishonest person. When will the pressure fad Gwendolyn s. Fryer Frankfurt editor s note it. Col. John f. Cullen chief Public affairs los army recruiting come replies recruiting Slough Baulne so the army s Bat cos Are a Nomen for the Job. Only Spinall percentage of Recruiter resort in cheating the Vail majority of usares 8,000 recruiters fill the ranks with Quale fled competent recruits through Good management and smart use of time. Becnel Tang scandals make big news became they happen infrequently integrity for la stressed from the first Day at the Rectra Tunc school until toe last Day a Soldier works for the recruiting come. We Itow gov believe that Mission la never made unless it by made with integrity. We agree with the Reader there is no excite for dishonesty. Curly dog was no Labrador Reader says this is trivial in the Wake of world events but 1 just had to comment on the Story of Jet the dog who was trapped in a Boxcar for Over a month the associated press possibly so informed by the dog s owners referred to Jet As a Black Labrador which was further described As having curly hair. Al though it s possible the dog was a Labrador mix. Jet was no True lab. There is no such thing As a Labrador with curly hair. However there exists a curly coated retriever which can be either Black or liver in color but this is quite a distinct and separate Breed from the much More popular Labrador. Sol. Diana Cook Raf Lakenheath England an explains schedule discrepancies 1 have just had it with an and its scheduling on three different occasions 1 have circled television shows to View set aside the time Only to Sil Down and Stenbo Iball of All stupid things instead.
