“I’d like to know the ethinicity of these Drill Sergeants.Perhaps they were followers of Revs Wright or Farrakhan? “


Probably not, from the articles that I read the army sent them to sensitivity training and considers their mistakes, as just mistakes of a couple of guys that just aren’t up to speed on this kind of stuff.

“Another drill sergeant allegedly referred to Handman as “Juden” – a German word for Jew and a perjorative term.

“That drill sergeant has lived in Germany and did not know that it is derogatory,” Manganaro said. “It doesn’t matter if you are aware or not.”

The sergeants received a letter of reprimand and sensitivity training that requires them to teach a class on various customs and religions.”
