I saw it in the Army Times

I have mixed feelings about it.

My view is that Basic should be hard. Real hard, more like the USMC boot camp. It should shock all the "Civilian" out of the boys and girls.

You never know the measure of a person until you see them stressed out to the max. Hate to have a bad event in the middle of nowhere at O'dark thirty with somebody who has to perform and do it "NOW".
