Contest Directions: If you see grandmas and grandpas carrying machine guns and wearing khaki - don't worry - they are just new army recruits (unless you see them in the Bronx, where it's just a tradition).
[ US Army has raised the enlistee age limit to bring older recruits and meet its recruiting goals. "Lots of older people are fit and are living longer, and they figure they can do this. We have been very satisfied with the older recruits so far," said a spokesman for the U.S. Army Recruiting Command.]
Come to think of it there are at least some benefits for the seniors to join the army:
1) They stay fit by doing drills and eating healthy food (sorry, no McDonald's in the army for you, grandma).
2) They can travel to exciting new places, meet interesting new people, and kill them.
3) In a hostage situation they are likely to be released first.
4) If they have a party, sergeants
won't even realize it.
5) Top army secrets are safe with senior recruits
because they can't remember them anyway.
6) Army commanders find it easier to control senior recruits because their supply of brain cells is finally down to a manageable size.
If you think of more, let me know. Now I gotta go and give my grandma a call - she forgot her bazooka last time she visited (damn, she forgets everything).
In this contest you are asked photoshop senior, older people in the military, or create promotional materials (billboards, adverts, etc.) for recruiting older people to the U.S. military. Your entries have to relate to the US military (Army, Navy, Air Force or Marines) only, no other countries please (they did not approve older folks in the army yet!)
