Recruiters Lie.

[KUJO]

Oh yeah. I almost forgot, Recruiters lie, The Army, Army National Guard and the Marines. I can say that because I have seen them lie. Sorry, don't know if the Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force or Air National Guard do.

My dad always said "If your recruiters lips are moving, he's lying..."

One Army recruiter I know failed to inform his potential recruit that there was an Air Force recruitment center 5 blocks down the road

Is there a reason they cluster **** them all together? The one down the street from here seems to recruit them all.

DOD tries to get all the recruiters stations in one location... cheaper rent! Thats why you see "Armed Forces Career Center" everywhere and solo stations closing down.

Ah...cheaper rent...There's Marine and Army recruiters that often horse play at a Jack in the box I frequent...they look pretty bored...

I had always heard that recruiters lie
my guess is that some recruiters lie

That was over a decade ago. The DoD had the money back then ,I guess.

Some do, no doubt about it.

Id say a fair 70% to 80% of the time its applicants hearing what they want to and new Privates (barracks lawyers) who think they know what the heck is going on.

ALSO, the National Guard and the AD Army are two different animals, please do not equate the two.

Amen Brother!
I let myself get roped into a Guard unit after 4 years of active USMC.I must have had a brain fart when I was surprised that the Guard was NOT like the active Army who I had worked with while I was on active duty.

You're right about the Private thinking he knows too much.
Ever notice that all privates are the smartest Soldiers or Marines for that matter,,,Until there is an NCO around?

Or a recruiter is missing a sheep?

My recruiter didn't lie to me. Marine Corps boot camp was just like camping, man! And he didn't steal my blues, or pork a number of h.s. chickidies while in the billet.

Naw...didn't happen!

Cavtrooper - you shouldn't admonish someone for painting with too broad of a brush if you intend to do the same in return. I don't presume to claim that you lie, but don't use yourself as a representation of all recruiters.
