Forgive my ignorance, but I take it PRETC is in effect a 'mark time' place where recruits get sent while they're waiting for their trade courses to start? ???
We've had the same over here in SEME - we created an Company called Soldiers Awaiting Training (SAT). A few years back in its worse case scenario there were over 1,000 soliders in the 'Company' waiting for courses to start. I've known of some soldiers who waited over a year before they started trade training.![Eek! :o :o](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png)
Fortunately times have changed and the training process has been overhauled since then. It's interesting to see though how much our Armies mirror each other though - our soldiers hated SAT too; days spent doing fatigues just to fill the time saw a lot of them wanting to can their career before it had even started. :-[
