Awesome. Glad to hear that they are doing this; the recruiting numbers bear out the premise that people like to be challenged, like to be part of a team that excels, and enjoy the rewards of hard work rather than the trappings of mediocrity.
Now, if the Army would take a lesson from all this, we’d be in good shape.
This is good to hear. I spent 7 years in the Marine Corps. I know a friend of a friend that is in Army basic as we speak. Strange thing happened. He called from his cell phone during basic. Apparently they are given their cell phones back at some point after the first two weeks. All I can say is, wow.
