Re: supeona an army recruiter

If the recruiter resides within the jurisdiction(not out of state)of the court issuing the subpoena, she must appear, or risk having a Rule

To Show Cause issued against her.

However, if this military person is your recruiter

and is, supposedly, making her best efforts to

enable you to join the U.S. Army, why would a subpoena be necessary to ensure her appearance?
