Air Force Reserve Command recruiters reached their Fiscal 2012 goal when they recorded their 9,229th enlistment of the fiscal year earlier this month, according to a release from the AFRC Recruiting Service. This marks the 12th straight year that Reserve recruiters have reached their annual target number for enlistments, states the Sept. 26 release. “We’re the finest recruiting service in the Department of Defense,” said Col. Steve Fulaytar, the Reserve’s recruiting commander. He added, “We prove it every year by meeting and exceeding the goal to ensure we provide the finest citizen airmen available for our nation’s defense.” AFRC met its Fiscal 2012 numerical accessions target on Sept. 12, 18 days before the end of fiscal year, according to the release. AFRC has roughly 400 recruiters worldwide, states the release. (Robins report by MSgt. Paul Flipse)
