YES It will make a good test even better BY JOSEPH A. MONTE I STRONGLY ENDORSE efforts to require parents' consent before their children take the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test The purpose of the ASVAB is to determine qualifications for enlistment in the U.S. armed forces. [...] in my 16 years of experience, only about 1 0 of the 300 students who take the test in a typical year end up choosing military service.
Only one candidate dropped out of the academy in the last year for academic reasons, suggesting that the test may screen out some desirable candidates. * The city should allow other standardized tests such as the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, the test used for qualifying to enlist in the military, to substitute for the police department's own written test.
It begins at home. On television and in video games we teach our kids that force makes right. A loaded gun wins the argument. Once our kids reach high school age, we set the hook. This year, as in decades past, Memphis public schools, along with other schools throughout the country, will test our children for war. High school juniors and seniors will take the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery test (ASVAB).

(In contrast, four-year colleges spend an average of $2,000 per incoming student.) Recruiters hit pay dirt in 2002, when then-Rep. (now Sen.) David Vitter (R-La.) slipped a provision into the No Child Left Be- hind Act that requires high schools to give recruiters the names and contact details of all juniors and seniors. In 2005, privacy advocates discovered diat the Pentagon had spent the past two years quiedy amassing records from Selective Ser- vice, state dmvs, and data brokers to create a database of tens of millions of young adults and teens, some as young as 15. In 2007, the Pentagon settled a lawsuit (filed by the New York Civil Liberties Union) by agreeing to stop collecting the names and Social Security numbers of anyone younger than 17 and promising not to share its databas...
