in point form.
1) we are a conscription, non voluntary force, draconian rules will
lead to havoc if discipline is uptight and not flexbile.
2) much of the discipline in the past is based on unnecessary
regimentation, though it is indirectly linked to their operational
discipline, many will not see this if they are always subjected to
this regimentation without the understanding the rationale.
3) current day discipline is more focused on operational aspects, i
believe we still maintain the standard during outfield at a
somewhat acceptable manner.
4) you teach the men about field discipline, they can't see the
importance now, but during real war time i think they will keep
themselves automatic as it is between HIS OWN life &
death.
5) being non voluntary force, we must win hearts instead of forcing
their hearts. we must make people be people to serve their
countries. it is just unfortunate that some people we take this
soft approach for granted and gain for their selfish reasons.
