ATTENTION: President Bush’s proposed U.S. troop reduction in Europe, which came up in budget hearings Monday (A4), may have less impact on military recruiting in Orange County than elsewhere. . . . There were just over 1,000 regular Army and reserve enlistments here in 1989. . . . A bigger draw than a guaranteed posting in Europe, local recruiters say, is the Army’s college fund, which can yield $25,000 in tax-free tuition for four years of service.
