Ann's post also reminded me of a discussion I had with one of our JROTC instructors this summer. He was a drill sergeant for many years in the Air Force. He indicated there are proven psychological studies behind all military training methods, and that while they may seem extreme and over the top to us as civilians, there are reasons for everything they do. They are proven to work and do produce leaders who can think and act quickly in life and death situations.
The link Ann posted demonstrates this principle very well!
