Listen I'm not defending the army but I'd be willing to bet 5$ that more soldiers are victims of any of the heat related illnesses (trying to sound smart here hehe, like heat exhaustion or shock or whatever) then they are of water intoxication.
Also we did the same thing when I was at basic in south Carolina. Except we didn't have to drink the whole canteen. Just take a couple of sips, but we did it frequently.
"All trainees are reminded: drink 1/2 to 3/4 canteen per hour, not to exceed 12 canteens per day. You will drink 3 non-caffeinated, non carbonated beverages with each and every meal."
Is what was recited daily when I was in basic training. And yeah, heat stroke is a big issue. I don't think you can blame the instructors really; everyone knows someone that says water tastes bad or whatever. All the instructors know is that everyone better be drinking their water.
Yup
That's exactly what's wrong with these army drill sergeants. They see the trainees under their care as statistics. It's a one size fits all approach, and they're so married to treating people like machines that they can't open their eyes and see when they're literally poisoning someone half to death. It's inhuman.
Yeah that's the whole point of training lol
And it's bad.
I mean it accomplishes what it needs to lol
