When I was in boot camp at Parris Island they had a motivation platoon. If they felt a recruit was lagging, they would send him to motivation for a day. The recruit basically spent the day crawling through the swamps and sewer drains at Parris Island. They would be standing at attention to greet us when wh came bake to the barracks for the evening. The sight of them scared the rest of us into performing better. Permanent motivation was apparently a week of motivation.
