Stressful, soul crushing? I don’t know...it’s changed so much from decades ago that it seems like a warm, inviting, friendly place with picnics welcoming back the once-feared upperclass Brigade in September, Super Bowl viewing parties, happy first-day-of-classes photos on FB, and stories about how everyone gets along, that I can’t reconcile it with the gray institution I almost dropped out of but was too stubborn to give in to. It was stressful, but it kind of molded me, and Didn’t crush my soul though, as I would unhesitatingly repeat my years in the real Navy that followed.
