I'm guessing this 48 hour timeout was as much about discipline as restoring any possible hearing loss.

  I actually don’t think so. That would be a form of collective punishment which is strictly forbidden and the officers was really careful about not crossing that line. Was a bit chocking for me to learn that, I feel like American movies have lied to me my entire life when the military didn’t let the whole platoon do push-ups every time someone made a mistake :) The guy who fired his weapon got a fine and was eventually kicked out though...

    Do you mind sharing which country and how long ago was this? That's quite a strong risk-averse & duty-of-care-oriented response to the incident. Was this a teenage military service thing? (I can see your username but I don't want to assume.)
