To be fair, it isn't just marching up and down, being shouted at by some cunt, a la Lads' Army style, there is an element of choice.
Good, bad or indifferent?

I'm the only member of my family who *hasn't* been in the army.
I don't take well to people shouting at me. Depending on my state of mind, I either start crying or shout back.
I would have been happy to do something less military when I was a student, though.

Bad idea.
Ask a soldier. Professional soldiers want to soldier, not babysit a bunch of lary chavs that aren't interested.
Having said that, we need some cannon fodder, and a lot of the colonies have been getting terribly uppity recently.

The thing that I've always wondered is...
How did they do that 'hidden camera' bit? This was the mid-90's; cameras were bigger and attached to an outside-broadcast van?
How come nobody was ever having a shit, or a wank?
