Boys were taught to read and write, but the government emphasized physical skills, such as running, jumping, boxing, and Wrestling. However, they participated in chorus contests and dance contests. Boys devoted all time to the army at 18. They had to eat meals in the mess hall with other soldiers. Boys over 30 devoted much of their time to taking part in military exercises.
