Army training is very rough and tough, so before you sign up, you must consider this. It is not going to be easy doing all the drills. The sergeants and instructors will yell at you all the time while they are training you.

The instructors have nothing personal against you so you must not let their constant yelling upset you. They have a lot of training sessions to put in and fit into a limited period of time. Besides, you have been living an ordinary civilian life all this time and they need to prepare you for tough military life by giving you suitable military training. Also remember that your instructors are not there to make casual conversation with you. They are not your friends so if you try to chat with them, you might end up doing push ups in a mud pool. Drill instructors really don’t care about how intelligent you are. They are not interested in what you say and think. They are most interested in how obedient you are and how quickly you get accustomed to the drill. The number one factor to stay away from any negative attention from the instructors is punctuality. Always be punctual and you will not get into any trouble. Punctuality speaks volumes about your self- discipline. This is a character that is vital in all forms of military training. Do not listen to various stories about military training from people who have been there. Most often many stories are overly exaggerated. Military services enforce discipline. People on an average are in disciplined and need this kind of training.Duration of the training or the time Bundeshwar soldiers ( in german Zeitsoldaten Bundeswehr ) are trained is not fixed it could be six, eight, twelve and thirteen years.

There are several reasons why punctuality is the main factor in military discipline. These training says the importance of soldiers on time ( in german Soldaten auf Zeit ), or simply stating how important being punctual is, every soldier should value time,If a person is not punctual and is late for a convoy or patrol, the convoy or patrol will have to leave without him. Another reason is that you have to relieve a person on duty. If you are late, he will have to stay at his place of duty longer. He may not be fit for duty. He may be tired and sluggish and need relieving fast. Yet another reason is that being punctual shows your people in charge that you are serious about your job. You may be needed and your patrol may be in need of another pair of eyes and ears. If you are late you may jeopardise the entire patrol.
