I remember the recruiter in "Private Benjamin" telling Goldie Hawn a thing or two. Here is an interesting article I found....
Top 10 Lies (Some) Recruiters Tell Applicants
1. Your chances of being sent to a combat zone are slim.
2. You are much more likely to get murdered in your home town than you are to get killed or wounded in combat.
3. You are absolutely guaranteed to get the job listed on your enlistment contract.
4. If you don't like the military, you can simply quit.
5. If you refuse to ship out to basic training you will go to jail.
6. Once you complete your enlistment you can get out and won't be called back again.
7. You have a great chance of getting the assignment (location) you want.
8. If you spend 20 years in the military you can retire and receive one-half of your pay for the rest of your life.
9. They don't yell in Basic Training anymore.
10. This is the modern military. We don't cut off all of your hair during Basic anymore.
