Some years ago, the Navy discovered that they needed to insist that officers spend a lot of time sailing sailboats, sort of like kids on the playground with tricycles before you let them have cars.

I'm guessing that our hyperregulated modern military, worried more about which uniform is in and which is out, forgot that you are giving expensive toys to not very experienced boys and girls and you need to train them to do their real jobs.
