Urban Tool in Recruiting by the Army: An Arcade

That's kinda...wow. Would be cool to try out those Apache simulators, though.

It won't make me join the army unless there's homing lasers...... and core bosses.

Apparently the "America's Army" series didn't do enough to get recruitment numbers back up to quota...next up, Harvest Moon Afghanistan - Opium Pals.

Gaming magazines seemed to get a disturbing increase in ads for the armed forces about 5 or so years ago.

I have a friend that goes to the army, and apparently, they have the Call of Duty games as part of the simulations.

I wouldn't mind playing with some of the toys- always liked the sim stuff.

Join the army today! It's just like shmups, except you don't get medals when you bomb houses.

Okay the War in the Pacific was nothing like the 19xx series...

Also if your score gets too high, you have to stop playing the game due to "international condemnation." The enemy will also be allowed "free hits."
