I think they are just to dumb to realize it.
I agree with you. I am a strong believer in personal responsibility. I also know that many parents dump their children off in public school as a "free daycare" and don't take any interest in actual parenting. I know that some of these individuals have a good heart and a strong sense of duty and they join the military. For many [read "most"] it is their first time away from home.
No amount of training or warning or lecture, or orders is ever going to prepare a lot of these guys for the things they will encounter.

Hammer, meet nail. You hit it on the head. So why waste all that effort and money that went into training that individual. Or, lets look at it economically... $0.15 it probably costs the government per condom at the bulk rate versus the cost of penicilin or valtrex.
AGGGGGHHHHHH, ignore my last; wrong thread. Sorry.
