    Imma be real with you, every country that has a military recruits from schools. Lots of countries don’t even ask, they just make you go in anyway. America isn’t an oddity at this.

      The oddity is having a military recruiter for a specific school. All we had was a stand for the military at a fair with all studies options (context: belgium)

          Yes. Recruiters have a region they recruit out of. All schools, colleges, walk-ins, job fairs, and cold calls in/ from that region,

        How’s that odd? When you work somewhere typically you work in a specific area.

        This is more or less what we had at my high school/secondary school in New Jersey

      I know that my country has a military and doesn’t recruit from schools. You actually have to put in a lot of effort to get selected. (Although this might be because we are the most populous country in the world.)
