Seems that every time someone past about problems with kids that are of legal age someone always says the military will set em straight. You guys are living in the dark ages!

1. The military is not a daycare for your lazy brats!

2. It isn't like the good old days anymore. Drill Sgts can't touch a kid, call them names or anything else. Being a Drill SGT today is one of the best ways to ruin your career! One little mistake like calling a kid a s@@@ head can see you relieved of duties and a performance eval that will stop promotions for a very long time.

3. If your kid makes it thought training (drill Sgt's are only allowed to can about 10% so they let kids pass who they would like to get rid of but because they hit the 10% can't) once in a regular unit it's very easy to kick them out. They made it really easy back in the early 80's. Just a little paperwork and it's "pack a sandwich and a map" cause they are going home. DUI's, bad checks (3 in 6 months), non payment of debts and just in general poor perfoamance are all grounds for discharge. They ain't going to waste time making your kid an adult, they are going to send em back home so you can try.

4. We have people in country with bad guys shooting at them and planting IED's. By what right do you have to send your lazy bum to be an added burden to these fine young men and women?

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
