In my mind stress is critical in the formation of a dependable warrior. USMC has been turing out a good product with high stress fast paced training environment. While the idea that every Marine is a rifleman is a little far flung you have to appreciate the intent and mentality of that philosophy. Keep stress levels high and if the recruit can't take it kindly show him the door and give him a t-shirt for his efforts.
