But these poor college kids have it so much rougher today. I feel so sorry for them.

Yeah, so much rougher than,say, going through a frat Hell Week in the '50s that was designed by and for WWII and Korean War vets going to college on the G. I. Bill (as I did); or through the Camp Smith NCO School with West Point Cadets as tac officers and a platoon sergeant whose first military hitch was in Canada's Princess Pat's Light Infantry Brigade before he came to the States (as I did).

These "college" kids have it so-o-o tough.

My Post #108 badly written/edited--I didn't come from Canada, the sergeant did, not me . . . but I had him as training platoon sergeant.
