Services Exceed 2010 Recruiting Goals

Have they raised their standards to what it was a decade ago? If you look at the numbers you will see they are barely meeting their goal which is a red flag to me. What are they doing? Stop recruiting once the goal is met? Set the goal lower? I mean, you got guys on 3 tours of involuntary duty out there so why stop recruiting? I am curious to see how these numbers related to previous recruiting decades.
