Glenn Reynolds makes an interesting observation on troop retention

It's interesting that retention seems to be going much better than recruitment. Perhaps the view of what's going on that the troops get in the field is more positive than the view that potential recruits get from the media.

Never thought of it that way. Is he right, or are there other reasons?
