Recruiting in cyberspace

Article Abstract:

'Stealth Force,' an adventure series that operates on airforce.com, represents the latest effort at recruitment by the US Air Force. The Internet has emerged as one of the venues by which the US military hopes to attract new recruits to fill its ranks, an operation where it has failed for four consecutive years. 'Stealth Force,' aimed at teenagers ranging from 13 to 17 years old, hopes to put the air services in the minds of the potential recruits as they approach graduation.
