As for the "stress card" issue, you can do what I just did (thanks, gnarledmaw, for the idea). Call your local Army recruiter.

The guy that I talked to said that as far as he knew, the "stress card" had been done away with. However, he has been out of boot camp for quite some time now and isn't sure that they don't still do it. He did say that he was in a training facility and a guy pulled one on him once. He is checking around to see if he knows anybody that kept one, and asked to have me call back in a few days for a copy of one (if he can find one).

Don't believe me? Call your local Army Recruiter and ask. Phone book, under "Recruiter".

He won't. I don't need to ask anybody.

Your arguing with many people who've been through Basic Training and even a Drill Sergreant who worked in BCT was on board who have never heard of a 'stress card'.

Not to say I'm discounting you, just that calling a recruiter isn't exactly my cup of tea.

I was an Army Recruiter and if asked, i would probably reply that you'll have to ask your Drill Sergeant what the local policy is on that when you get to basic. Then I would ask my station commander, what the hell is a "stress card". :^)
