Army to expand recruiting incentives
From the Yahoo article:
Army to expand recruiting incentives - Yahoo! News

Under a new proposal, men and women who enlist could pick from a "buffet" of incentives, including up to $45,000 tax-free that they accrue during their career to help buy a home or build a business. Other options would include money for college and to pay off student loans.

An Associated Press review of the increasingly aggressive recruiting offerings found the Army is not only dangling more sign-up rewards — it's loosening rules on age and weight limits, education and drug and criminal records.

Hey, I have an idea.

Instead of recruiting criminals, drug addicts, 42-year-olds, and the obese... and throwing money at them that we borrowed from China and Japan... How about we let gay people serve openly?

Nah, that's just CRAZY talk.
