Sunnylin from China: It doesn’t make any sense to me. I mean, why do we have to go through all these terrible experiences? Maybe it is a valuable memory to someone, but it never was to me. I don’t know how others think about it, but I hate it! I went through three military trainings, when I began junior high school, high school and university, respectively, and each was the worst time I had during my stay in each school, and the irony is that they are hardly military. We’re merely trained in marching and walking moves, and it never makes any sense to me how we’re going to defend our country with this perfectly synchronized walking pace. Our trainers were soldiers and they were usually rude and very unfair when dealing with us. I was constantly scolded and criticized during the training even when I was definitely obeying.
Teamkrejados from US: In America, students can choose to take part in ROTC: Reserve Officers’ Training Corps. This is done on a voluntary basis and the activities happen all year. Chinese military training in colleges seems rather pointless. There is no follow-through after the initial eight day drilling and subsequent parade, unless you count morning exercise, which most freshmen seem to hate. After freshman year there is no hint of that military discipline.
Thedrunkingpig from UK: Self-discipline is important. Being told to follow orders is not. Team building is very important: however, this takes years of practice and requires other skills such as communication skills, something that the average Chinese fail to have. Now I don’t see how this training will help build team building skills when they are forced to obey orders from others.

Knowledge Wisdom from South Africa: There is nothing wrong with military training when you are in college. It is good for discipline and you learn how to work together as a team. Also, when a country might get into a situation where its citizens are needed to defend the country, they have some basic knowledge on how to do it.
DMZappa from US: ROTC does teach leadership and discipline. I graduated from the Army and Navy Academy in Carlsbad, California after spending six years there, Class of 1972. In 1970 I was ready(and willing)to go to Vietnam. My brother went MIA that year and I had quite a change of mind. He never returned. I still carry positive traits in my daily life due to that training. It also changed my way of thinking about the world and my country.
Peter from China: Military training is necessary for students. It is an opportunity for them to learn discipline, cooperation and a firsthand appreciation of the sacrifices of their forefathers in defense of the nation. Most kids today are used to being well protected by their parents and they could learn a tough lesson from it.

My Views on Military Training With the approaching of the new semester, millions of Chinese students are on the point of taking a military training. However, whether it should be necessary for students to attend military training has aroused a hot debate. As a result, there are two quite different views about it. It is not rare to hear that some freshmen complain about the military training. They consider that the military training in college seems to be pointless. During the period, students are merely trained in marching and walking moves, and it never makes any sense to them how they’re going to defend their country with this perfectly coordinated walking pace. Besides, students almost don’t have enough time to rest or recover. What’s worse, a sudden increase of physical exercise, especially during summer, does harm to students’ health. Others, however, hold the positive view. They say that it is a chance for students to learn discipline and cooperation and develop the team-spirit. Weighting the pros and cons of these statements, I am inclined to agree with the latter. Firstly, through the military training, not only do the students strengthen their bodies but also increase their willpower. Perseverance plays a greatly important role during the training and this valuable trait is of great significance for daily life. Secondly, military training, which serves as an opportunity for freshmen coming from different places to get to know each other, makes them united as a family. Finally, it helps to enhance students’ national defense consciousness and foster their patriotism. To summarize, military training helps build students’ bodies and willpower, and at the same time, it strengthens the unity among students. Moreover, military training, in large part, cultivates students’ patriotic spirit.
