"The rebellion comes at a time when the U.S. military is simultaneously under pressure to lift sagging enlistment numbers while coming under increasing criticism over its recruitment tactics. U.S. Army officials recently announced a one-day moratorium on recruitment, scheduled for May 20, in order to give recruiters a chance to "focus on how they can do a very tough mission without violating good order and discipline."

But federal officials are warning that any open defiance by school districts to the military recruitment guidelines contained within the 2001 federal No Child Left Behind Act will carry severe consequences: the complete loss of federal education funds."
