Pac-Man recruiter sails through Navy enlistments
Chief Petty Officer Julie Reed, 27, led the Navy with 83 enlistees last year, selected as the top recruiter among 3,500. She used arcades to spot recruits, challenging young men to Pac-Man and offering to pay for the game while gauging their qualifications for service. Reed notes women may get better initial responses on the phone and that arcades attract the target age group.
