Weblogs: Hurricane victims - A handy source of recruits!

Bad Catholic: "We ran a photo in the paper today that was taken at a Houston job fair for Hurricane Katrina evacuees. A woman was examining positions available with school districts. On the right edge of the photo were other job postings. One in particular caught my eye: 'US ARMY! Free training!'

I mean no disrespect to veterans and recognize that the Army offers opportunities to a lot of people who might not get them any other way. But is it really all that moral to try to sign up people who have just lost everything they own and really don't need more traumatic experiences?"
