but, the AAF comes with a "price" as does everything else the Army "offers".
And Crew Chief..if you are still a member or read this post...when I was outprocessing in 2005 (I think they stopped issuing them in 04), they were still refusing to take shelter halves that didn't pass the "smell" test or their "keen" eye...I was kickbacked for a damn shelter half that was never even opened when I received it at Inprocessing (though I should have known better) or was even going to be used. I loved outprocessing
121804, enjoyed your post! (Being in the USAF, we stayed in billeting or in a hotel instead of getting issued shelter halves...
As for the current recruiting incentives; the military is just like any other employer. They're trying to get the best recruits and have to decide what financial incentives will work best to attract the number of recruits they need.

- Provide jet fighters so that the fighter jocks will be able to make neat moves with their hands at the O' Club on Friday nights after they've borrowed those jets from the maintainers who own them...
