West point had the time to send recruiters to my high school? And they were in the Air Force? Why do you think it stuck out in my mind?

It was a recounting, not a story.
If you were a military recruiter that has a quota to fill and aren't held accountable for what you say....wouldn't you be tempted to say anything you need to get kids signed up? Why the heck would this misinformation from recruiters surprise you? If this surprises you, you might also be surprised to know that Keith Richards has done drugs or the Iraqi war wasn't really over 3 years ago.
