I feel like bathing in that mud

its the same in every country of the world.you can't be a soldier without rigorous training

I knew you copied this useless stuff from a movie

DrObum:
One is a stimulated environment, the other is a wicked and inhuman treatment with no goal.

If you know, you know.

That's all.

germanized:


You dey mind am? The gutter they make recruits crawl through at Depot NA is enough to give them infection, not to talk of the whipping...
They dehumanize soldiers instead of training them in modern warfare.

when they go to battle field are they supposed to only crowl in sterilized environments,and pls give us good examples of modern infantry warfare,we want to learn

GenSpecifics:
Are they flogged in the process of undergoing such drills?

Ah ah?
Oyibo wey no dey flog pikin. Na man dem go flog?

And yet small Bokoharam boys are playing ping-pong on top the heads of our Armies.


Comparing Nigerian soldier to an American soldier is an insult and inhumane.

---

The same way Taliban are playing ping pong on American and NATO army

After all the rigorous training, their brain still go dey function well and will be ready to protect the lives of their citizens unlike the ones wey dey for 9ja

Russia and China Army Treatment is brutal Than Any Army in the World

I know people like you will still quote me word for word, but check the facts, our soldiers are in no way better.

Modern warfare relies on the use of technology and weapons rather than just crawling through gutters and getting flogged. After training, they give them inferior AK47s that get jammed easily... Go and join them first and let's see if you will come here and praise Nigerian Army.

No Army in the World must be allow to be in their comfort zone or else they will be massacre when it is time for Real War. Brutal Training Give Soldiers more Confidence and it also boost their Morale.

Are we going to have this hackneyed debate again?

Both of it work together, Physical Aspect give the soldiers the Skills, Confidence and strength to make use of the Technical Aspect very Well. When they already have the Physical skills and strength to make use of any technology wouldn't be much of a Problem and as long as they are fit they can acquire all these Technology and Upgrade any time

You shocked and embarrased the federal government and the nigeria army with the word 'flogged' that you mentioned which is absent from the US army.

I wonder if their female soldiers go through the same process

Noooooo
No One ever does that and lives to see the next day

All you guys, the American Special Forces are trained in different types of terrain sometimes simulated to enhance their mental awareness and of course to harden them. Their regular soldiers don’t go through the stupid unnecessary stuff we subject our soldiers to. That’s why they seem to be more advanced than us. The last commandant of NDA used to bring truckloads of hockey sticks so that instructors would use it in “chawussing” cadets. You can imagine. Garbage in, Garbage out if you ask me.

Take it from me as someone who has friends in the army. There's nothing to commend about the Nigerian armed forces. Lack of deployment of technology and intelligence is the reason we're still struggling with Boko haram. Intelligent soldiers will produce intelligent results. Ogbon ju agbara lọ.

Those pictures are stolen from an American movie they are not the real USA Army Training.

Ntin harsh here, if u in the military at first it'd would feel like wickedness but rily it a lyf saver.
Such drills are pyschological training to prepare ur mind and body for the rigors of battle!..
It hlps the mind to kip pushing even when the bdy is past tired, and also hlp the bdy respond when it called upon.

Check the NA training videos on YouTube.
Our people just love to glorify sufferness. Intelligent soldiers are what we need. 99% of warfare is intel and good weapons.

What is inhumane? That is the type of conditions they will meet in the trench.

A Soldier have to be Physically fit and Strong first, everything else can Come later. The Almighty USA and NATO forces with all their Mighty Technology have not yet end Taliban in Afghanistan after 18 years of fighting and Spending 5.9 Trillion Dollars.

These guys are simulating possible combat conditions.

On the other hand, I see no benefit to be derived from having someone stand on their head — which our beloved military have been known to do

...among other pointless nonsense.

Don't mind op. Mud-swimming is a part of military training. Flogging or whipping is idiocy with zero tactical value.

I can see that the Taliban has survived so long because of their superior physical strength.

The Almighty USA and NATO forces with all their Mighty Technology have not yet end Taliban in Afghanistan after 18 years of fighting and Spending 5.9 Trillion Dollars. The Taliban have no Airforce, They have no Body Armour, They have no Humvee and They have no Armour Cars but yet they have been kicking American Ass for 18 years with just Ak 47 and Some Bombs . You people keep praising USA like they are Super soldiers LMFAO

I have a Nigerian friend in the US army who said we don't train in Nigeria while my brother who went to NDA also said thesame thing that what they do to them in NDA is mostly wickedness in the name of training. Why flog or beat your fellow cadets just to pass a message

Kindly explain the flogging
