I doubt that is true what you stated. Certanly I dont believe that what I have read is misleading propaganda. Its suppost to educate the kids about the real truth of what happens when you sign up. The paper that I have read is the truth and reality that kids should know before they sign the dotted line at the recruiter's officeMobBoss said:Its not a myth. People get that money paid out all the time. Hell, I myself still have 15 grand in an account from the Montgomery GI Bill...going to use it after I retire.
As for the job skills thing that is insane. While the highest bonus's do go for combat arms, they still need a lot of people as cooks, engineers, military police, translators etc. Also the test is not the "top half" unless you think scoring a 50 or higher is top half. All your quote is a very misleading piece of propaganda meant to discourage kids from enlisting. Here is a truthful link: http://www.militarypay.com/Bonuses.html
No, its not just a advertising scam. If it were we would have the ACLU all over us. Your little paper is propaganda however, nothing more, nothing less.
Quite frankly, I dont believe in the maximum time that a unit to be deployed to is two years and then rotated out. What I read from the anti-war sites is certanly truth to my eyes.MobBoss said:No, by LAW the maximum that a unit/person from the guard/reserves can be deployed involuntarily is two years and then they must be rotated out. The TYPICAL rotation for all units active or reserve is a one year stint. That is the truth and not a lie.
*Sigh* I guess you may have been blinded by the military machine and left you misguided.MobBoss said:Dont tell me my business and put out lies and propaganda.
