I just found some more smoke. Yesterday the Army reported a strength increase of 1,259 in June. On the surface that looks like an improvement. I commented it was much too low because June is supposed to be the biggest recruiting month. Things are much worse than I thought. I just learned that 1,207 of the Army's reported end of June strength increase is the new West Point Class. That means, not counting the cadets, real Army strength increased a mere 52 men in June (historically the biggest recruiting month of the year.). We should get June actual recruiting numbers today or tomorrow.
