35. America’s Buffalo Soldiers

Buffalo Soldiers were name reused from a decade ago. The idea was to let teenage boys re-enact the conditions back then so they would focus less on wrong-doings.

The discipline used turned deadly for one of the boys. For others they would carry emotional scars for life. The manager of the program was given a 6 years prison sentence for the death and only recently released. Maybe the death should have meant an end to wilderness programs in Arizona but it didn’t and other programs continues to endanger the lives of teenagers even up til today.
