What happened to recycling? If you couldn't meet the requirements by the end of Basic
 ing, they would send you back to Day One to start it all over again. When I was in Basic (1970) we had an individual, who was in his 3rd cycle of Basic. He was a biomechanical marvel in relation to upper body strength, as he had none. At the end of his 3rd cycle (#2 was a PT Flight) he could not do 3 correct pushups. As he was going into computers anyway, he magically graduated.This sounds like the military equivalent of a participation award. Basic soldiers shouldn't have to throw those nasty grenades anyway. (That's sarcasm sparky) Any question that the inmates are running the asylum?
