A friend of mine is a member of the Orange County Recruitment Awareness Project, a group of people that hand out leaflets to high school students letting them know what military recruiters don’t’ tell them.
It’s hard to argue that recruiters don’t lie to our children about educational benefitsâ€â€the #1 reason why they sign up in the first placeâ€â€and you can read this story at ABC News about some other low things recruiters have done.
My friend is coordinating a leafleting event at an Orange County High School this coming Monday, November 20. It will take place very early in the morningâ€â€we’re talking zero periodâ€â€right about 7 a.m. It usually lasts for an hour.
If you or someone you know would like to participate, email Thu-Trang Tran: autumnpage@gmail.com. If you can’t make it this time, but you are interested, email her and tell her to hit you up next time.
“Orange County Recruitment Awareness Project”? That’s the best acronym I’ve seen today.
OCRAP! That’s right up there with my all time favorite – Children Uniting Nations Together. LOL
