It's one of many "dirty little secrets" of our military. Although, it isn't really that secret, many, many people who have served will say to get whatever the recruiter says in writing.

Finally, why in the hell (not to mention how could you live with yourself) would you lie to potential recruits about the position they would be in?

Because for every cool/great job, there is at least one that is really dangerous, shitty, or needs a large amount of troops. Most recruiters are stuck with filling those positions, sometimes in any way possible.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
