This would appear to be totally glossed over. I recently heard this place described as worse than TINS in Dammam. Like many military jobs in the Middle East, a high salary, single as opposed to shared accommodation, and three flights a year is usually in an indication that you'll be teaching sleepy cadets drawn from the ranks of the unemployed/able.

Much worse than TINS. You will be teaching the "brutal and licentious soldiery". Don't do it unless you really need the money.
