Connor Gallagher said on Naked Capitalism he's been seeing this sorta ads. Is the US military this desperate?

I’ve seen old ass supply sergeants like that. And she has a combat action badge so she has been in combat. If someone has the skills the army needs they’ll take you with an age waiver. Not every soldier needs to be a hard charging front line grunt.
I suppose this is true. I'm not a military fellow myself. I guess I'm just not used to the idea of the military putting ads everywhere targeting just random civillians, but then again I'm not American so maybe things are different there.
I am American. If you're in the age range and male you'll get phone calls harassing you to join periodically. The adds are also everywhere... however in the modern age of targeted advertising that might just be because of being the target demographic for military recruiting.
