My school's recruiter specifically targeted athletes. Like I'm trying to get a college scholarship, not join the ROTC

Our recruiters held pull-up competitions to see who could do the most during lunch. Sad if you think about it....the winners get to be pressured to join the military since they show good athletic ability.

Oh whoops, I suddenly seem unable to do a single pull up, guess I win.
