Brief Description of Midterm Project on Army Using Video Games as a Recruiting Tool

When we watched the video called Digital Nation it talked about how the army uses video games and simulation as a way to recruit teenagers. They actually have a recruitment center that allows kids from all over the world to take part in these activities. Many people are against this type of recruiting and protest outside of their building. These people believe that war is not a game and video games shouldn't be used as a recruiting tool. The army believes that kids can tell the difference between video games and reality. They just use it as a tool to get kids interested in war.
I will explain how the army uses these tactics of recruiting, the pros and cons, and what my opinion is on this type of recruiting.
