Bubba, I used "professional" to note their effectiveness at reaching the desired end result - a platoon of qualified shooters. The Army was very, very systematic at teaching BRM, starting with dry fire drills in the bays and continuing all the way through grouping, zeroing, pre-qual and qualification, in addition to three very beneficial days spent in the EST 2000 simulator. The approach to most other events was not as comprehensive or organized, and thus my comment.
BTW, my Drill Sergeants would
never use a curse word or shout, and if they had done so, I certainly wouldn't be posting about it on the Internet!
