The anti-military crowd always makes a stink about something like this.

I think you would be surprised at the number of military personnel in the state of Maryland. Edgewood Arsenal (Chem WMDs), Aberdeen Proving Grounds (munitions testing) , Fort Mead (spooks), Fort Hood (Bio WMDs), The Navy Academy, Defense Logistics, Defense Mapping Agency, US Navy Hospital in Bethesda. I can go on and on… not to mention the Pentagon workers and people I know who work at the CIA.

I didn't see any stink in that article.

At a time of heightened awareness of military recruitment, the aptitude test offered free by the Defense Department is drawing criticism.

That seems to be the jist of the article. "These poor little kids are going to get "press-ganged!" seems to be the most hysterical part of the post. That's the part you added.
