Annihilation of critical thinking, cultivation of blind obedience, proportion of violence as the main way of resolving conflict. Yeah, that's not bad at all.
Not all militaries function in this way. I'm sorry yours does.
As an example, Israel has the concept of Rosh Gadol which empowers members of it's service to be better than the system itself.
Given the atrocities committed, I'd say they've failed utterly.
