National Guardsman getting finished with their enlistment terms are not being discharged. They have to stay in for mandatory additional months. The other services have the same predicament because there are not enough bodies for the Iraq front.

I heard that soldiers are being told that if they don't re-enlist early, they will be sent to Iraq for the rest of their terms. Our Army is being blackmailed!!!

Soldier recruitment is falling far short of what is needed. New soldiers will have to be added soon.
