recruitment to exceed 10 per cent of the military’s end-of-year goal if that target is met ahead of time, with an overall objective of returning to “full strength” in five years.</p><p>“If we get close to the end of the year and we are at target, we’re not going to stop,” she said. “If we can go above, we will.”</p><p>She added steps have been taken to streamline the recruiting process, and
