Too much a "soap opera" with all the contrived stories jammed into a mini-series. One thing, though, the same stereotypes shown in "The Cadets" were the same people in my basic training company. People seem to be same most everywhere.
The most poignant point was the voice-over at the close stating how they all met the end of their short-lived careers.
