  1. Background: The war in Iraq has taken the luster off “Be All You Can Be” and “Army of One,” the U.S. Army’s recruiting campaigns.

    Suggestion: In helping the Kremlin combat dissidents, the Russian Army, known for widespread and often fatal bullying, could come up with something like “That’s All You’ll Ever Be. One by One.”
