Vice has acquired some US Army documents through the Freedom of Information Act that reveals some details about recruitment methods. Recruitment officers have historically been deployed in various US cities in order to increase the volume of soldiers available at the US Army’s disposal for conflicts abroad by reaching out to people directly.

Players are given an extensive arsenal of handguns, grenade launchers, and more to deal with these enemies, and when the game functions properly, it’s one of the most effective on-rails shooters out there....
