I notice that this piece in the Washington Times does not indicate one of the ways in which the Army has managed to meet its recruiting goals.
Namely, it is taking more people who score low on the aptitude tests (from the Baltimore Sun, free registration required).
The Army exceeded by 256 its goal of 5,600 recruits for November, while the Army Reserve brought in 1,454 recruits, exceeding its target by 112. To do so, the Army accepted a "double-digit" percentage of recruits who scored between 16 and 30 out of a possible 99 on the military's aptitude test, said officials who requested anonymity.
Maybe those rumors about recruiting from New Orleans refugees aren't so preposterous, after all.
Thanx and a tip o' the hat to Steve Sailer.
That is all.
