Again you show your total ignorance of the enlistment process.
You think that you can only look at a single most outside layer of the enlistment process and call it a government equivalent of a soft drink ad but you ignore the hours of discussion, counseling, meditation, testing and advice from all kinds of sources not only the recruiter but clergy, relatives and friends that goes into making a decision to sign up.
I mean if you seriously think that all it takes to get people to join the service for almost a decade is a 30 second TV commercial or a stupid low quality video game then you must not have much of an opinion of the men and women who serve our country. Maybe i'm biased but I give them a lot more credit than that.
