Initial Entry Training

In a time were numbers and money hold more weight then standards is a time when we as the senior leaders and the Army as a whole need to look how we conduct business. I understand that doctrine at all levels is a guide to ensure all missions are completed but where does the compromise of standards fall into place. Initial Entry Training is the start of ones military career and ones exposure to the military. To have standards compromised so early in ones career sets a poor example of standards from the beginning. I will not try to defend the driving factors that lead to the lack of ethical dilemmas, I will just address that they are out there.
