What Grumble describes was what I saw in the Navy.

What Point99 describes is more common in Air Force training, both UPT, and MWS.

You could say both training centers are similar to the military. TK is more like the Air Force. Houston is more Like the Navy. Both get the job done.

I've never been to the IAH facility. But I've been through five programs at TK. I never had any complaints about my training there, other than van rides to the hotel, and midnight sim times.
