A couple of points. Althought they share some features, isn't there a difference between 'tough love' wilderness camps for teenagers who are sent there by parents, and penal institutions to which offenders are sent by the state?

Also you claim the boot camp regime is about" promotion of fear, degradation, humiliation, discipline, respect for authority, absolute strictness, drill, physical conditioning and severe punishment in order to break the will of a person and to make him or her totally submissive" Doesn't such a sweeping statment (which may well be true) need backing up with examples?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Cute 1 4 u (talk • contribs)

So done. For future reference, you can self-revert by viewing the article history, then clicking the "last" link in the line of your edit, and finally the "undo" link on the top of the right-hand column of the edit diff page. –Henning Makholm 23:17, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

Boot camp (correctional) → Boot camp — The software is located at "Boot Camp", but this page is located at "Boot camp (correctional)". I feel most people looking up this term are looking for the "correctional" page. Also all of the other topics borrow the phrase from the correctional version. I have also requested a move of the current "Boot camp" page to "Boot camp (disambiguation)". —Henry W. Schmitt 18:56, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose leave the dab where it is, or move the military training camp to boot camp, becauee Boot camp originally refers to military recruit training. AND the correction usage comes from it, not the other way around. Plus Apple's software is not from the correctional usage. 132.205.44.5 22:08, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
