It's not necessary. Soldiers would obey more if you just be nice. Common sense.

I feel like this is something you'd ask.

Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

There's probably a good explanation for why they act like unreasonable assholes but I can't think of what that reason would be.

To harden them to the stress of combat and weed out those who crack under pressure.

If someone can't handle being yelled at, then how can they handle the stress of combat?

But they don't have to be rude about it.

I guess. If someone yelled at me for shitty reasons I'd just get pissed off and probably yell back.

They're very rarely actually rude, and it's not about obedience at all. Yelling is not the same as being inconsiderate.

And, trust me, when you're actually in trouble in the military, it's much more calm and collected. Drill sergeants yelling is just a way to handle things for a certain period of time in training. After a couple of weeks, there's very little yelling.

I would much rather just get yelled at than be in trouble in the military.

Its like that for like 3 weeks during basic.

Its just a way to make you handle stress and have discipline. You would have future soldiers leaving their stations unattended, forgetting their weapons and sensitive material laying around.

After 2 weeks of yelling bet your ass nobody forgot their shit again

Some might say this is why we aren't winning anymore.

LOL,I know people throw around this term loosely, but I actually burst out in laughter when I read this comment. Some might not take people who say stupid things seriously.

Wasn't there a comparison video where the army drill sergeants never raised their voice really and the Marine drill sergeant was much more stereotypical
