Didn't You See the Banner? "Mission Accomplished!"

This is just completely disgusting.

Army Recruiters Accused of Misleading Students to Get Them To Enlist

And how are they doing this, you ask? By promising huge paychecks? By lying about the amount of time they have to serve? By painting a rosy picture of service in Iraq?

Nope. By claiming the war is over.

Nov. 3, 2006 — An ABC News undercover investigation showed Army recruiters telling students that the war in Iraq was over, in an effort to get them to enlist.

ABC News and New York affiliate WABC equipped students with hidden video cameras before they visited 10 Army recruitment offices in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

"Nobody is going over to Iraq anymore?" one student asks a recruiter.

"No, we're bringing people back," he replies.

"We're not at war. War ended a long time ago," another recruiter says.

And the thing is, there are people out there that are misinformed enough to fall for this.
