Re: salt creep

Well like anything...there is some good sides to it and some bad sides to it. And I just went through it. Yes i was exhausted the whole time but that didnt mean that you didnt get your sleep. Only time you didnt get it was during the nights you had firewatch and during some of the night movement things we had. Oh and the crucible.

Re: salt creep

Yeah you get plenty of sleep in Basic. AIT when you start getting some freedom back is when the sleep starts to wane. Then it is your choice to sleep or not. I think that the service of my father was a lot more capable than the my Army days, but it is definately a different time. Everything is PC now, co-ed training, etc. The DI's hands are tied when it comes to being physical, its just a kinder gentler Army. Good for the soldiers what it means to the country's defense remains to be seen.
