Yes, because... Children are vulnerable to influences
Children are susceptible to marketing that promotes something as fun, exciting and glamorous.
Because joining the Armed Forces represents a dangerous commitment to one's country, and they don't present it as such when marketing in schools, they should be banned.
No one can have escaped over the last few years the media attention on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. To think that children wouldn't know that the armed forces are dangerous is a naive and frankly ridiculous proposition.
