Na, it was Ft. Leonard Wood. In the beginning the caption said Missorui. Had to be Ft. Lost in the woods. I went there for Basic. I was not JAG. I was a Medic.
.
I work with a guy now who went to basic in the early 2000 and he was saying something about stress cards and male/female platoons. WTF.
F.M.
I heard about the damn stress card, however i've yet to see one ever. One of my old cheif SSG Thomas is a DS at Ft. Sill, and the last thing he told me was you can't call them privates anymore (It's degrading to the individual) what a load of shit.
Hell AIT is no longer ran at DS at Sill anymore it's Civ. Instructors, and these New soldiers are given more freedom. It seems to me we are more worried about feelings, and not giving these new soldiers the discipline they need.
I Can't recall how many soldiers i have seen come into the unit and either get chaptered out or get confined it's total bullshit. I asked one of my soldiers once about soldiers in a counseling session about his unability to adapt, he replied that he figured that Basic and AIT was so relaxed; so would be the Unit.
I say the way its going we are setting up these soldiers for failure from the beginning. Sorry to say but i hate the thought of wasteing time and money on soldiers how can't flip the bill. Soldiers today are just to damn sensitive......
