Kerry's Army?

Today's New York Times reports that the Army is already planning to lower standards in order to try to fill its existing quotas of 20-30,000 troops, in the face of complaints from soldiers about pressure being used to try to keep them in the armed forces: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/01/politics/01recruit.html?hp
