IN THE MILITARY

I was reading the posts in the discussion of ITS A MILITARY THING,

One of the posts described how the Judges gave "Bad Boy,s" a choice of jail or the military,

I was a drill Sgt when this practice was done quite often, Talk about a bunch of off the street punks!!! However we did manage to turn about 75% of them around, and make them responsible individuals.

This practice is no longer done or in very rare cases.

I remember when during Parents Day at basic at Fort Brag N.C. A mother came to me and stated" Drill Sgt, I hope you can make a man of my boy" I just looked at her and said " how the heck you expect me to do in 8 weeks what you couldnt do in 18 yrs?
