Hi there and welcome to the forum. I suspect you'll hear from the mods about your spamming but that won't be my doing. I have some questions:

1. Why do you want to communicate via PM? It leaves me with the suspicion that you don't want your "accidentally inaccurate" statement debunked.

2. Please explain your up to the minute understanding of service obligations accrued during medical school, inservice versus outservice residency and inservice versus outservice fellowships.

3. What is the current status of the CCC requirement for midgrade physicians?

4. Are subspecialists recently out of training being involuntarily assigned to lengthy operational tours with no opportunity to practice in their specialty? How is the army ensuring their competence upon return to practice?

5. Tell me about life at a MEDDAC as a midgrade physician.

6. What is your background?

And just like that, he's gone. Doubt he saw the caveman's club coming. Then again, that would have been an almost perfect parody account...hmm...will anyone remember this come April 1st 2017.

The only problem is this makes several of us look like we are talking to ourselves. What's the DSM dx for arguing with imaginary recruiters on the internet.

Shots fired. Only natural to head to ground. Especially when you're not carrying

if i hadn't seen it in real time while travelling TDY i wouldn't have believed it-- i may have attributed it to an alcohol fueled @Gastrapathy hallucination. but this latest recruiter did, in fact, exist and i think set a new record for shortest termed .mil recruiter on SDN ever.

a toast to our departed army medical recruiter: may your future grounds be more fertile, and may you pay attention to the skeletal remains of your predecessors the next time you venture into new lands.

maybe we should hang a few on the yardarms like they used to do with pirates?

Physicians aren't that scary. We're more snarky, condescending, and sarcastic.
But as most amedd recruits don't stroll into the recruiters office with 30 careers .mil physicians this would be an unfamiliar feeling for most recruiters...who are often not officers and almost never actually physicians
 
Well, there are two ways of going about it, aren't there? You could come on the forum, encourage potential applicants to speak with you privately, making it clear that you have an alternate version of the truth when compared with the actual physicians on the forum - or - you could use the forum as a learning opportunity. Find out what the goods and the bads are from the perspective of people actually IN the service AS physicians, and try to address them when you recruit. But, when you're a used care salesman, that's too much work.
