well... i don't wish to elaborate much.. but in general.... it's like this...
1. due to safety concerns... much training have been toned down... components of the 7 day field camp and held OUTSIDE the 7 day time frame.
2. no more section based training during field camp.
3. group training is a 1.5 day affair.
4. non-tact break for 1/2 day.
5. no need to pass ippt, range and IFC anymore to pass BMT.
6. you can ATT B all the way in BMT and still no need to recourse.
7. only way to recourse is like you OOT (OOC), early in the course. ppl who OOT like in 2nd half of BMT are given the discretion.
Wow, I just wonder if the Army knows what they are doing? How can we convince outsiders that SAF is a deterent force if we can't get the basics right?
