I'm condemning recruiters who purposefully misinform potential recruits. I find their behavior reprehensible and I would hope they'd be penalized. The problem is that the behavior is known to the whole military, but no steps have been taken to avoid it. That is where the broader condemnation comes from. "We see this is wrong, but we're okay with the results so don't expect us to do anything about it."
Cops get shot at, but the can quit. Also, they're not stop-lossed. The military is unique in their contract. Yes, it's not a one way street, but I challenge you to join up tomorrow and leave within a week. I'm sure the people you represented would appreciate the efforts of Berkeley.
