Yeah people have different reactions to such an odd environment. I had a really bad time the first two weeks of Army basic training, but by week 3 I was actually kind of having a good time with it, in an odd sort of way. Everything still hurt really bad, but it was also kind of hilarious and was glad I stuck it through to the end.
Didn't make an extended career out of it, but my years there gave me a needed boost of confidence.

For a lot of the young folk in my flight, the confidence they gained by getting through even the wimpy USAF basic training was very valuable. And there are quite a few other benefits as well.
