Facing Reality

The Army is planning to expedite their increase in staff. Previously they had planned to increase the number of soldiers by 15% by 2012; now they want to do it by 2010. They are offering $2,000 bonuses to National Guard members who persuade someone to join the regular army.

Whether the new troops will be as qualified as the Army likes is debatable. As we have learned, the Army has accepted a number of soldiers who have not met the desired standards.
