Help Wanted

Shinseki said it a couple of years ago - in today's world we need more troops. Casey, the current Army chief of staff, says the same thing. The commander of Walter Reed says the hospital is still not performing the way it should because guess what - it needs more people. We pay about as many private contractors as we do soldiers in Iraq, but the contractors' interests are not our interests. Most people who signed up for the National Guard have found themselves really an intrinsic and necessary part of the regular Army.

Is a volunteer army the best choice for us today?
