Trust builds retention some government officials express that they do not understand Why fewer younger people find military service attractive. Any average person can understand that it would have been very difficult Mohave recruited and retained a effective military Force just of the paycheck Mili tary members received in the Early fifties. Congress most certainly is Why the two great recruitment promises were the a i. Bill and guaranteed free life Long medical and dental care for All military members and their dependents who stuck it out until retire . -. Retirees now realize that our govern ment lied in the recruitment and re enlistment propaganda and reneged on the free medical and dental promises. Now some Brilliant members of con Gress want to deny 330,000 potential Reti Rees after they have already served 15 years of military service with their new gimmick High 1." these congressmen want to cause great potential damage to the military to save a Mere $649 million Over seven years. There is a proposal in Congress to raise the surcharge on commissary items to generate Money to Cut the Federal Defi Cit. We Are All aware of other Quality of life initiatives that Cut.

By any Chance can the younger generation be doubting their government Slong term truthfulness and commitment to adequately care for its present and future military members and its retirees maybe old echoes Are being heard loud and Clear. I Gen Hudgens Stuttgart Germany truth about Citadel in response to Gloria Steinem s re. Marks on Shannon Faulkner i have put the punishment the Haz ing the humiliation that she took is Steinem seems to be referring to is. Faulkner s failure among the corps of cadets at the Okadel i attended the College of Charleston located 1.8 Miles away from the Citadel and i have also married a Citadel Grad uate. Is.

Faulkner s first year As a Day student and i had Many friends who were cadets at that time i know firsthand the jaws that were Laid Down to the cadets in reference to is. Faulkner. She was never punished for failing to attend All of her classes As cadets Are she was never hazed during her i Days As a member of the corps she was under surveillance by Federal marshals. She was never humiliated on or outside the Citadel at any time by any fellow Cadet. The president of the school made this perfectly Clear. A Cadet was to be Dis missed if any negative actions were re ported to him. In fact is. Faulkner Wasto have no special treatment. She did not fail due to her treatment by the corps As is. Steinem would have the readers be Lieve. She failed because of. Her performance which had been affected by her numerous speaking engagements and press interviews. I believe in women s rights and i am a Strong supporter of Many women s issues. However there Are 84 All female four year colleges across the country and Only two All male. A single gender education should be a Choice for everyone. There Are certainly definite advantages to a sin Gle gender education arid the Citadel is no exception. It has created a Bond that has lasted Over 150 years. No is. Faulkner will not hear Praise from this woman or from any of those who have known the Citadel experience.
