Funny, I always thought "bloodwings" were a great way to ruin a perfectly good brown T-shirt.

Hazing, like many things in the military, only serves to prove that there is a threshold of learning when the suck is involved.

After a certain period of time, suffering is pointless and you gain nothing from it. "Realism" and "training value" be damned.

Hazing turns into abuse when it becomes part of a daily activity or a mindset.

2 weeks of freezing / starving is 10 days of stupid unless you're doing SERE.

Just as shaving-creaming new privates in country is a waste of laundry facility time.

I was only in for a single tour, though.
