Why is military training physically and psychologically challenging?

I understand the military has to "weed out" candidates who are physically, psychologically or emotionally weak, but I'm looking for a book or insight as to how military recruits are trained AND also what is the purpose of particular training exercises. I would appreciate hearing from those who've done extensive reading about military training or especially veterans who have gone through military training first hand.Why is military training physically and psychologically challenging?Because war is physically and psychologically challenging!

The techniques %26amp; tactics used depends on what type of mission you're training for. There are a dozen ways to do everything, just like a mechanic has 10 tools in his box that all do the same thing. The more tools you have available, the more sucessful you'll be. You can IM me %26amp; we can get into more specifics about my experiences.Why is military training physically and psychologically challenging?disciplin.....its that simple

Because life and death situations are physically and psychologically challenging. The point of military training is to get you out of your comfort zone and teach you to function in an unknown, high stress environment quickly, decisively and properly so that when the feces strikes the oscilatory blades at a high rate of velocity you instinctively know which way to jump, what to do, and who to follow.

To answer from my point of view...



They need to break you down to your weakness...



They must destroy your confidence and re-build it the way they want it!!!
To instill instant unfailing obedience.



To ensure that only those willing to defend our nation with deadly force are in a position to do so.



It is not to make robots, or killing machines.
