Meanwhile in Colorado, military recruiters are coming under criticism after a high school student exposed that recruiters were urging students to lie about their past in order to qualify for the military. The student journalist posed as a high school drop-out with a drug problem who wanted to enlist. The recruiters essentially said no problem and went on to tell him how to create a fabricated high school diploma and how to cheat on his drug test. The student recorded the interactions and part of the video aired Monday on CBS News. The Army has suspended the two recruiters involved.
