The U.S. Military and Well-being

The U.S. Military has been making making their new recruits take a class about happiness and well-being. How is it that people who are being trained to kill others or enemies of the country be taking classes about well-being and the happiness of others? How are they going to use what they’ve learned in the those classes in a battle field? Or is it that the class is for themselves for when they’re are out of service for good? I mean it is a complex argument that cannot be just left alone meaning how are corrupted soldiers going to utilize happiness in war? Maybe, for those who have gone to battle and have see the worst of horrors, this class is to teach them about how  to come out of that situation sane or to be able to live their lives without the burden of what has happened. Maybe it is also to teach them about just being or becoming happy. However, why are they being forced to take a class about happiness before they go into service? Is it to feel happy about killing? These are serious questions that I have because I can’t seem to understand the reason behind this military class.
