A key mark of any effective organisation, and one of the advantages we’ve seen time and again that democratic nations militaries over authoritarian nations ones, is perfectly illustrated here: The willingness to criticise one’s own leadership and established procedures.

By acknowledging what doesn’t work, it becomes possible to improve. Hopefully leadership is able to learn from this, and provide more effective training in the future. I seem to remember reading that basic training has been extended recently, that could help.
