<p>I don’t know if I agree that this place is a ‘brainwashing factory’ at all. Sure there might be a ‘right way’ and a ‘wrong way’ to do things according to the SOP, but that does not mean I can’t think for myself. It would be dangerous if an officer just accepted orders right away without thought. There is always a time and place to voice respectful dissent, and without this dissent the Army would be a horribly ineffective organization to say the least.</p>
