I can see from your replies that all is not a bed of roses and the guys should suck it up and soldier on. In most cases I would say the same thing. My point is that when soldiers are being trained for combat, why make their life any harder than necessary. My son and his friends have been in long enough to know the routine of how the military operates(or does not operate). I have heard these stories before and I have experienced it myself.
My son and his friends have been putting up with this since June and have stuck it out but enough is enough. Latest rumors have them moving again, I advised them to wait and see before flying of the handle. Kit have been stolen already and everyone is aware of the paperwork involved when reporting missing kit.
Someone asked what was the issue with money, unless my son or one of his friends volunteers that info, I can't answer it. If my son finds out I'm doing this, they will never find my body.
I agree with who ever said, it is not the living quarters that's the problem, it's the moving. Our boys say the same thing. The money issue was not their doing, HQ told them they were owed money. I don't know the reason why. I agree that training will be a concern, lack of instructors, lack of guidance, lack of material, lack of space but these guys had over a year to get ready.
I'll leave with this quote: Never ask why something was done,
the real answer is found when you ask why something was not done.
