    You only fall out of basic if you’re an invalid. The military is very good at beating compliance into anyone else.

        Given the degree of physical, psychological, and - not uncommonly - sexual abuse you experience along the way, I wouldn’t recommend the experience.

          You sound like you are objecting for the sake of objection. You have been provably wrong in certain cases.

          I wouldn’t recommend the military either, but there are facts and then there are falsehoods. You have been treading on the side of falsehoods and that is mighty dangerous because abuse of all kinds does occur in the armed forces. However, the amount of incorrect information you have been touting may lead people to believe that the abuse suffered are falsehoods as well.
