Army recruits at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, may appear to be going through the motions of most beginner soldiers, but they’re part of a slightly different crop.
This group is made up of people who want to do the job and serve their country, but are just slightly below the army’s strict standards.
To demonstrate, the Army ran “Banfield” senior story editor Paula Froelich through a sample of physical drills potential recruits will go through in the prep course.
Plus, when “Brangelina” called it quits in 2016 after two years of marriage, it wasn’t only their given names that were torn to pieces.
