Dave Airhart did not climb a playful climbing wall, he climbed an unwelcome mountain of military exploitation of our youth, and upon conquering it, rightfully and courageously reclaimed his campus placing his flag of dissent atop a symbol of deceit. These diversions which recruiters bring to campuses are an abuse of the inflated military budget; they are tools of manipulation which perpetuate the Lie that the military is an adventure and war is a video game; they are theme park tactics aimed at recruiting our young to die fighting wars for profit.
