Maybe if all those guys who spent $20 on their flag at the Wal-mart store that they've attached to their vehicles would sign up and serve their country, we would have enough. That's right, they're too busy bitching about the Dixie Chicks, Susan Sarandon and supporting the troops to actually JOIN the troops.
Yeah, except they'll have a helluva time being able to join! Right now we're dealing with a medical disqualification because my son broke his arm 5 years ago and has a metal plate in there (not on a joint). He's passed strength tests, but they're concerned they may have to pay $$$ to have it removed in the future - we're talking $1-2K tops. :angry: We will probably have to remove it and even then there's no guarantee they'll let him in because he was on Ritalin until 1996.

And the AF has closed enlistments for their fiscal year and won't start again until October unless you pick something very out of the ordinary.
