   Nobody ever accused recruiters of being ethical.  I put them somewhere   
   between politicians and used car salesmen.  Though, between those two, I'm   
   not sure which one comes out as less ethical.  Oh, add navy detailers to   
   that list as well.  "Dude, my detailer said I could get shore duty in   
   Hawaii."  *opens orders*  "WTF, the Enterprise???"
