Military Manners

If you have served in the any branch of the armed forces, or watched movies dealing with new military recruits, you are likely familiar with the style of how leaders communicate orders. In the British Army, there is apparently a new trend toward manners where yelling ("barking") orders is no longer encouraged. Rather, they are taking a "touchy-feely" approach and "asking" recruits to follow orders. Interesting. http://bit.ly/8U5t3Z
