Obfuscate.

I went through a simple NCO course at Pendleton before going to Nam, one of the treatments was to be bound and gagged, placed into a wooden box with the lid nailed shut and then hoisted about, followed by the instructors throwing dirt on the lid then complete silence...

and I wonder why I can’t sleep at night...

My son went through SERE about 4 years ago. He attended in Maine in February.
If you evade caputure by the trainers you still have to go through the torture phase. The only benefit you get from evading capture is they give you a ham sandwich as a reward.
We didn't hear all the stories, but various leak out over time.

Thank you for your service for our country tet68.

Something like that might well be the reason my hubby is claustrophobic and has trouble sleeping at night.

At least you went though NCO Training, I went over in '65 came back to the world, got some stripes nailed on.

Volunteered to go back, talk about learning by doing.
