In my country it's compulsory to serve in the military for either 8-11 months. The schedule you wrote is pretty much spot-on with our basic training.

Ours:

  • 0600 - Wake up scream
  • 0605 - All units outside in group formation; morning run & exercises
  • 0620 - Making beds, cleaning rooms, hygiene
  • 0700 - Breakfast
  • 0715 - Back in the barracks, other units having breakfast
  • 0800 - Classes start
  • 1230 - Lunch
  • 1250 - Afternoon break, no napping
  • 1330 -Classes
  • 1700 - "Reserved time". During basic they'd use this time to screw with you, to grow discipline etc. Later on we had free time to do sports/read.
  • 1905 - Dinner
  • 2020 - Evening lineup
  • 2100 - News
  • 2120 - Cleaning rooms, hygiene
  • 2200 - lights out

I'm from Estonia.

It amazes me just how similar they are. I just hope these schools are heavily regulated and checked by the government. It baffles me how you weren't allowed to call/tell anyone if you were being wronged to. We had every chance to write complaints on our COs or even call Minister of Defense if we felt we had been done injustice.
