In order to remove Recruiting Centers as soft targets will unfortunately be to relocate them from shopping centers and malls to Secured Federal Buildings and Court Houses, National Guard and Reserve Armory’s and Military Installations. I don’t think arming Recruiters or trying to bullet proof offices is going to accomplish anything other than terrorists modifying their tactics. Moving them to these secure facilities will enable security and I don’t believe recruiting would suffer. As a side effect, they would probably save a lot of money too.

When I joined the Navy in 1980, all the recruiters in my town were on the 3rd floor of the Federal Building. But, the DoD decided to move them to strip malls for accessibility. Unfortunately, accessibility means less security.
Agreed.
