Charming and all that, but doesn’t answer my question.

No drill sergeant presently in the British Army signed up, or trained, for the task of beating recalcitrant young adults into *insert approved outcome here*. That is not what the army is for. Why should the army, or its drill sergeants, be expected to pick up a broken society’s crap?
