The use of institutional boot camps are on the decline. There is no evidence to support that it is effective on recidivism. Although it's purpose is to develop self discipline, respect for authority, responsibility and a sense of accomplishment many are being rearrested within a year of being released. (Schmalleger & Gmykla, 2015). The cause for this is because the boot camp is based off of military styles and concepts. However, the military is for the most part a choice and not a condition or punishment for wrong doi to creating ngs.

The length of boot camp is about three to four months long depending on the branch you go into. Boot camp is very mentally and physically challenging but prepares you for your duties in the United States Military.

Beast Barracks is the West Point’s six week basic training period for incoming freshmen officer candidates. It compares to Freshman Orientation Week because the incoming freshmen in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M, go through a similar basic training process. Such as on the first day Beast Barracks they are instructed to go to different stations to get issued their items. The fish in Corps did the same thing on the first day of FOW. Another similarity is, they also learned all of basic knowledge and customs of the school. For example, marching, wiring a uniform, how to eat in the mess hall, and to follow all the rules and regulations as freshmen. Which are all the same things we learned during FOW.

The soldiers crept through the jungle, keeping their eyes and ears open. Thick beads of sweat dripped down their foreheads. It was getting more difficult to concentrate with the task at hand. The hot, humid air wasn’t helping. Suddenly, one soldier tripped over a wire. Within seconds, he was gone.

Most American soldiers who were drafted completed eight weeks of basic training, followed by courses in infantry, artillery, engineering

AFEP Camp—Advanced Field Exercises and Physical Challenge Program is one of the many special training programs that Marines have the opportunity to take advantage of and earn certificates in their records while serving on active duty in the Corps. It is one of the most difficult and challenges programs in all the Corps advanced training and extension certification programs offerings. To earn the certification that it imparts means that you are one of the most physically adept and capable men in the Corps. The thing is that it’s so difficult that most of the men who sign up for the program end up dropping out within the first few days of its getting underway each cycle. I had been on the waiting list the AFEP for more than 14 months when I finally got the word that I had been given a spot.

Orange heat burned on her cheeks, red and yellow flickered in her eyes as the flames danced across the wooden boards. Why didn't she listen...But she had listened. She had learned. She had made mistakes.

It was precisely 0500 and I could hear the cadres yelling from outside the tent. I frantically jumped out of bed and but my combat boots on. This was just the start of Basic Expeditionary Airman Skills Training Week (B.E.A.S.T. week) in week five of Basic Military Training for the United States Air Force.

The end of my junior year, all the pressure and excitement of transitioning into senior year was weighing over almost everyone around me. Typical, I suppose, for most everyone in high school. But I had something bigger weighing stress on my shoulders and that I spent five months preparing for. In December of 2016 I joined the Pennsylvania Army National Guard, ever since that day, June 13th, 2017 had been looming over my head, because that was my ship out date for Basic Combat Training (BCT). BCT is a rigorous ten-week journey that transforms civilians into soldiers while teaching recruits the Army Values, resiliency, and tactical surviving skills.
