*Facepaws.* Dammit! If I go to boot camp I expect to be whipped into fighting shape in a no-nonsense manner, not freaking coddled! This is supposed to be war, and people seem to think it should be kindergarten!

Well, yeah. Not that I intend to go to boot camp anytime soon...but if I ever did, I'd expect to be trained in combat. And if combat isn't pretty, then combat training shouldn't be either.
