I got an interesting piece of mail today....
From the Department of the Army, HQ, U.S Army Recruiting Command.

They want me to find out how I can strengthen my college education!

If I mail in the reply cards, I could get a knit cap from the Army for FREE!!!!!

I WILL BE 57 YEARS OLD IN MAY!!!! DO THESE PEOPLE EVEN CHECK THESE THINGS????

1. I just checked your profile....
and see that you are female. So you never had to register for the draft back in the day.

I am one year older than you, and hope that I never get one of those letters. Jeez.

:eyes:

Had you been male, you would have signed up for Selective Service. But this is ridiculous.

3. You get a knit cap for joining the Army?
It truly baffles me as to why they are having trouble recruiting new soldiers. :sarcasm:
