DOVER, Del. -- They wear ball caps adorned with American flags and cover their hearts when they hear the national anthem. They applaud teamwork and love things that go fast.

"You always want to go where you're welcome."
Seems like a smart play to me. I for one am proud of NASCAR for doing what they do in the manner they do it. Many drivers and crew members have visited with different units and expressed absolute support for the military.

If a recruiter becomes a problem do the following:
Get their name and rank as well as that of their Commanding Officer (Not a local supervisor, get the CO - insist on an O-5 or higher).
Then ... politely ask them to stop calling - this should end the problem.
If it doesnt stop call the C.O. and threaten a letter to your congressman.
End of problem
