Meh, there was this bullshit years ago again with the Navy here where new recruits were hazed by having engine oil pumped into their rectums or someshit.
Seems the Army and Navy here are full of immature fuckheads. The saying goes, if you don't know how to drink, the army will teach you (as in there is nothing to do on weekend except blow your pay on getting horribly drunk, its an army culture thing).
