Army game recruits 'Real Heroes' - Yahoo!

Okay, I think I need a patriotism transplant... I am having a conflict of my own here. As an avid gamer I have very mixed feelings about both versions of the Army game. I realize that oft-times positive things do come from such game play, yet the Army gets a fresh batch of recruits as well!
This is the rub = Now you REALLY CAN be an "Army of one".
Is it alright that a pasttime so seemingly innocent as gaming can lead to our young ones joining the Army??
Who knows - so read more about it and you decide.
The debate does go on however about how potentially dangerous and distracting gaming can be – so this totally takes the cake in so many ways.
