    Soft boot camp for a soft generation

    A lot people "invite" the pain in the beginning, but after day three of inprocessing, thats gone. CS gas isnt really all that bad, just depends on how well you can control yourself. The worst thing I have had was OC spray, I felt like my face was melting off, and it was 20x worse than CS gas...

    Soft boot camp for a soft generation

    The Military Justice System (UCMJ) needs to be changed!

    The differences are the penalties; when convicted in a SPCM, the maximum prison sentence is 1 year, 3 months hard labor, or forfeiture of pay exceeding two-thirds pay per month, or any forfeiture of pay for more than 1 year. I would double check the source in which you are referring too...
