All of the recruiting offices are closed for training on reasons why being a recruiter is not grounds for suicide.
I've known people who were recruiters and for years after their tours, they were all rather bitter about the tyranny of the quota system and that it didn't matter if they were shipping disillusioned PhD candidates or sweepings from the local criminal court as long as they sent warm bodies to the Recruit Training Centers and/or OCS. That more recruiters don't kill themselves is a minor miracle.
Second, and I've said this before, nothing is going to change until the military lifts the stigma of seeking counseling for mental health issues. Until they do that, all of the safety stand-downs and suicide prevention training sessions will not be worth a crap.
