I couldn't have said it better. It's PASSION in teaching that is needed. I remember so well taking a class on a Navy base overseas for a driver's license in that Country. Turned it in when I left, thinking I'd never need it again. Oopsie, 6 months later, I'm back taking the class, which is mandatory, to get the license again. But this time, the teacher was AWFUL. He read from the book, didn't look up exept to check the time on the wall clock and I have never hated being in a classroom for 7 hours more than I did those 7 hours. I even tried to complain about the guy, and then he tried to keep me from getting the license (in Japan - someone on base can keep you from getting the license). It became a which Commander had more pull (mine did) and finally I got the dang license, which I now knew not to turn in when I left the Country.

It never ceases to amaze me that the same knowledge could be imparted in such entirely different ways. Lesson learned - ask about the teacher before you take the class.

But in the case of the Military, I guess that can't be done so they have to listen to whomever it is throwing the info at them. I pity them and will say another prayer for every servicemember going through any kind of training.

God bless our Military!!
