If you play America's Army you're not only being recruited but trained as well, without pay! One of many reasons I don't play this game. The effect of video training exercises on soldier behavior is pretty extreme if you ask certain retired generals.
As far as realism goes I have yet to see a game where you are taken hostage for several weeks being beaten on a regular basis. Or where your burnt corpse attracts a crowd that further dismembers you and hangs you from a bridge. Or a game with realistic ambushes: no warning, bang! game over. Think how much wanker-fanboy complaining there'd be over those kind of "glitches."
