37. One of the discrepancies of the military.......
you swear allegiance to the Constitution , but you give up your constitutional rights (you fall under the military code of justice).

I am conflicted on this one. I hear they have revamped the MRE's but when I was in they had to much salt and not enough roughage. And the worst part-only 4 blocks of TP. As a women, I always came back from the field bloated, constipated, and with a major rash. I don't know if it made me a better soldier, but it made me a more meaner person.

I agree with his reasoning as this does too much to 'normalize' war, but this takes it too far in the other direction.
