Is there a precedent for ANY military recruitment tactics being honest? Or any type of advertisement/promotion methods for that matter? :p
It'd certainly be silly to put a disclaimer 'warning: military service may be hazardous to your health' on it, too. 'The young' should know better.
Certainly not. But is that practice more excusable only for that reason? Again the answer: certainly not.
