Vulgarities in the army

There was a response to NS men spewing vulgarities at their superiors due to resentment and frustration. This act of insubordination leads to detention in the barracks or a monetary fine. There must be a reasonable explanation as to why this is treated so seriously.

In the response, this act was seen as no big issue. The dominant issue was to learn how to fight instead. I beg to differ. The army also trains boys to be fine men, to be strong in character and this rule is one of the methods. Even if they can fight well, their vulgar speech just makes them barbarians. They would be just like animals.
