Make sure to ask about the stripes for buddies program... if they are even still doing it.
Most times, in order just to get someone in the door, they will bump up the starting rank to E-3 (PFC). Even if they don't actually know other people going in at the same time a recruiter will sign off on the paperwork stating that your boy went in with a few buddies just to get someone to sign.
Better pay off the bat and less wait time to NCO (Non-Commissioned Officer).
