Any recruiter that cold approaches me can fuck off

If that recruiter is trying to get me to kill people they need to fuck all the way off into the sea

When I was 18 I had a Marine recruiter chase me down the street.

I was 18 when 9/11 happened. The recruiters would hang around GameStop looking for ~~suckers~~ recruits who were playing the demo consoles they had up. And usually start the conversation with "I wasn't here to recruit, but . . . "

Being a customer to GameStop, yes.
