Article Abstract:
The US Army recruitment has come down by 7000 soldiers that have lead the Army Officers to take a decision that the entry standards should be relaxed and they should accept Category IV recruits who scored the military entry aptitude test at the bottom. Although this would diminish the quality of the Army, training might improve soldiers' power to take decision on the warfare activities.
