An Arizona Daily Star article reports on the lengths that Army recruiters are instructed to take. It makes the newspaper recruiters life sound easy.

The newspaper says that the Army's 10-page School Recruiting Program Handbook includes these tips:

• Deliver donuts and coffee for the faculty once a month.
• Cozy up to the office staff. "Have something to give them (pen, calendar, cup, donuts, etc.) and always remember secretary's week with a card or flowers."
• Offer to lead calisthenics for the football team.
• Try to "eat lunch in the school cafeteria several times each month. This will give you more visibility."

That is going the extra mile.
