I am not even going to watch it.
I joined the Army in 85 and was hazed and participated in hazing. Can't deal with it? Get the fuck out pussy! I want men with balls and a spine in my military.
I joined the Coast Guard in 90 and was hazed and participated in hazing. I think you know how I feel about it.


Go watch it because it was way out of line for normal hazing.  After watching it I suspect you will change your mind.  The soldier was hardly a pussy.

My son has a couple of little scars where he was pinned with his Crossed Sabers after Cav Scout OSUT and he was pounded at his SGT pinning and that is expected.  Being slammed in the chest with a big wooden mallet is way out of line, especially when the trooper was sent to the hospital for it.

The way I've "heard" of it being done around us, normally the whole company lines up and smashes your chest in. Some go soft, and just shake the hand, but the big guys that do damage are always the ones that hit their hardest.

There is no place for "hazing" in a professional military. If the US military wants to be "professionals" then leaders need to stop stuff like this.

A firefight is enough "hazing" for your CIB.

Ranger School is enough "hazing" for your Tab.

Anyone who thinks you need anything else needs their head examined.

College isn't going to teach you not to slam someone in the chest with a wooden mallet. You should know that from common fucking sense.

Phi Alpha Brother: Assume the positions.
(Pledges turn around and bend over.)
Randy: You want me to bend over so you can smack me with that paddle?
Brother: Yeah.
Randy: I like drinkin' and I love ridin' tricycles, but if someone hits me with a paddle I'm gonna knock 'em on their ass. I thought we were friends.
Brother: We are. But... the older brothers did it to us when we were pledges so now it's our turn to torture somebody.
Randy: If you want to get someone back why don't you paddle the guy who paddled you? Not some poor guys who didn't do anything to anyone.
(Brothers start paddling each other as Randy and the other pledges watch.)
Earl: (voiceover) Randy never thought he'd be so satisfied watching guys spank each other on the ass. But, as it turns out, he was.

I think his point is that in certain MOSs, minorities dominate the senior NCO corps and in others they are hard to find.

11, 18, 19 and 12B world there aren't a lot of minorities in my experience.
13, 14, 42 there area  lot of minorities.  Though I am not sure that holds true for the PFAR community.

Not sure if 14 or 42 belongs anywhere near these conversations.  What's next, aviation.

Actually, in PFAR where I am not assigned anymore, 3 of the 4(including the FSC) 1SGs are minorities.  The Bn CSM is a minority.  The BCT CSM, a 13F ranger batt guy is a minority.  Are we being invaded?  

All but one of the above are studs.  

My experience, 20 years in the artillery/recruiting/OC duty is I've had 2 minority 1SGs.  One as a a SPC, and he was a stud who got screwed over later on down the road. The other as a recruiter, and he was a tabbed 11B prior to converting.  Amusingly he is in the same school as I am.

A dysrythmia makes more sense given the context. You can send a person out of and into V-tach/V-fib with a sharp blow to the sternum. I'm guessing that calling a loss of consciousness a "seizure" was just the layman trying to explain what they observed.
