本集介紹Aenbie 與 Dave今天再度訪問到正在復興崗就學的外籍生Vincent！ Vincent是北喬治亞軍校生，但到了復興崗之後，覺得復興崗軍校有許多嚴格的管制，例如MDM的安裝與管制。 另外，在北喬治亞軍校，早上有群體的體能訓練，體能訓練後就幾乎沒有連隊集合時間，下午5點後也可以換穿便服離開學校。 當然，兩所軍校都有階級制，必須要服從與尊重位階較高者；不過，兩所軍校在階級上的體現不太一樣。相對來說，復興崗的低年級軍校生受到更為嚴格的管制，高年級軍校生的生活比較輕鬆，更重視如何學習領導統禦。 英文重點PT （physical training）：體能訓練civilian clothes：便服uniform：制服rank：階級laid-back：輕鬆的 （以上內容為受訪者短期交流之個人意見） --Hosting provided by SoundOn
