The U.S. Army will not meet its mission to recruit 80,000 soldiers this year and has officially lowered the goal. Officials say the service has been able to encourage more experienced service members to stay on the job in order to satisfy the military’s growing demand troops. Army officials say the updated goal will be 76,500, and six months into the recruitment year the service has brought in just 28,000 new soldiers.  (AP Photo/Charles Dharapak, File)
