How many 17 year olds enlist per year?

I did. My mom signed for me. Still, even for older recruits, it is best if they consult with their parents.

I was 17 also. And when the E-6 recruiter showed me the pay grid I said "What's this? You mean I get free food, housing and I get paid." It wasn't about bennys to me or anyone I served with. Of course it was 83 and a real leader was in the White House.
