First, I've been in the Army for 18 years. This show truly is awesome. I can find the same personalities from the characters in multiple Soldiers I've met, supervised, and been over the years. The over zealous, always amped troop; the guy filled with potential but barely does the minimum; the hoah guy who is better than everyone else etc.
I read a lot of reviews that said what I was thinking initially until I found out that all of the errors in the first episode were intentional and that a contest had been advertised prior to the air date that invited people to find the ar 670-1 errors. Even Geoff Stults apologizing because he knew how wrong the violations were. He knew this because he and the other cast members went to a miniature basic training and hung out with Soldiers about to deploy who were going through an IES defeat lane.
Bottom line, I know the cast and writers are doing their best to represent the Army while at the same time producing a comedy. After all it's a COMEDY and a good one at that.
