| Nice video, and I agree its better than the "Be All You Can Be" or "Army Of One" stuff......is it going to change people's perception of the military ro what we are currently doing? I don't think so.....I think the best recruiting tool we could possibly have would be a chain of command that has a friggin clue, and a media that isn't politically driven, and reports our action in an unbiased manner......until the public perception of the military and its mission change, I don't think any commerical will matter INTEL QX9650 ASUS Maximus Extreme 4GB DDR3-1600 Sapphire HD 3870X2 Danger Den Torture Rack (Custom W/C) Seagate 750GB HDD BFG ES 800W PSU | ||||||||||||||

| I really like it. Some of the previous slogans and movies, sugar coated things too much. This one seemed more real world to me. I hope I see it on some of the networks and the cable channels. They did a nice job on it. For the record, I wouldn't be pushing either one of my kids into the service. But if that was their choice, I would be proud. I am very appreciative of anyone who serves our country. God bless all of you! Guess you know where I stand now. ![]() Commodore 64 overclocked into outerspace ![]() | ||||||||||||||

| Well I recommend serving in the military to everyone.....you don't have to serve in combat arms, get a free education and the other benefits provided and serve your country in some capacity.

| With a war going the military is going to have a hard time recruiting no matter how good their commercials. This is their best effort to date though. Thanks to all who have served and those that are serving now as it is a very selfless and noble thing to do. | ||||||||||||||

| You have never been forced to watch AFN commercials. They are absolute torture. Some of them are informative, but most of them are the worst acting you have ever seen. I found some on Google Video LOL. So now you can all see what I am forced to watch. http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...fn+commercials http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...fn+commercials http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...fn+commercials http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...fn+commercials These are just a few examples.
