17. England is obvious example of military recruiting crimes.
Not to sound too harsh, but I think anyone looking at a photo of Pvt. Lynndie England:



...can tell she is likely mentally deficient (the perfect soldier, a Forrest Gump, too dumb to ask questions). Does this look like a "Master Mind" to anyone?

If you missed it, I recommend finding a copy of the September issue of Vanity Fair (with Jennifer Aniston on the cover) and read "The Recruiters' War" (review), about military recruiters routinely enlisting young people that do not meet the legal requirements to be a soldier because they are so desperate to meet their quotas.
