There is nothing new about this policy of decreasing or increasing requirements. It has always been an ongoing off and on thing.

Actually the Navy and Army have been decreasing enlistment requirements since 1998 thats actually how I got in without a HS diploma, but the thing people have to realize is that you don't need to graduate HS to be smart, I had to quit HS to take care of my family, make a mortgage payment and have enough cash to have a good time. I've been on my own since 16 and joined the military at 18 so I really think it's a better plan not to exclude someone because of their education.
