Comments:

Hale cited one recent example where a 61-year old English teacher with the Defense Language Institute English Learning Center in Texas was deployed to Iraq. This despite the fact that other candidates with equal or superior qualifications volunteered for the tour of duty. He says the teacher, who chooses to remain anonymous, was singled out because of her work with the union.
