You rarely notice any difference, except maybe you are a bit more aware of certain sensitive issues. I've never been "hurt" by any of these types of training.
I'm certain even people who have served in the Military know what I am talking about.
DON'T MAKE A MOUNTAIN OUT OF A MOLE HILL, FOLKS. I doubt very seriously that there will be "rule compliance Nazis" at every YE event. My advice: take the training, take the background check, and keep participating in YE.
Since you seem to think that this is a "Mole Hill" and everyone else is over reacting, then maybe you'd feel comfortable sharing your Social Security number, birth date, and home address on this forum for all to see?
Don't want too? I certainly will understand if you don't, but realize that anytime you submit that information on line, you are running the same kind of risk. I, for one, will not take that risk........
