Military Lowers Standards To Fill Ranks - CBS News
The longer the war continues, the harder it's proving to fill the U.S. Army's ranks. A strong economy also means there are easier jobs around.
So the Army is accepting a growing number of new recruits with everythging from health and weight issues to lower academic test scores to criminal records.
The number of incoming soldiers with prior felony arrests or convictions has more than tripled in the past five years. This year alone, the Army accepted an estimated 8,000 recruits with rap sheets, reports CBS News correspondent Kimberly Dozier.
Most are guilty of misdemeanors, but around 100 in the past year had felony convictions.
"Burglaries and narcotics are probably our two top categories," according to Col. Sheila Hickman.
Nonsense. I remember the days during Vietnam where they were giving felons a choice between jail or military service.
BTW, If you can find somebody who hasn't been convicted of a misdemeanor feel free. That would mean they couldn't even have been in traffic court. They talked about 100 that had felony convictions. Were they rapes, murder? No. They were burglaries and drug convictions. Crimes that seem to go hand in hand due to addiction.
So you have a problem with drug offenders? If that's the case, then our president shouldn't be in the Oval Office, because he's just as guilty as any felon they let in because of his Choom Gang days in school.
