>I don't remember if it was the same article or a documentary I saw where the recruiters were discussing how they were coaching potential recruits who had issues that would normally immediately disqualify them. They were coaching them on how to hide asthma, drug use, etc.
That was going on when I enlisted in 1984. I don't know when the Army raised its bar on education but it was well after I joined up. There were some real winners in the units I served with.
