I have to admit, the typo in this sentence made me laugh.
rectify :
1 : to set right : REMEDY
2 : to purify (as alcohol) especially by repeated or
fractional distillation
3 : to correct by removing errors : ADJUST <rectify the calendar>
4 : to make (an alternating current) unidirectional
IMO the "recertification" effort is an attempt to get
everyone "marching up and down the square" Monty
Python-style.
Interestingly, a number of people are reacting to the
drill Sergeant's question the same way that the soldiers
did in that skit:
"Is there anyone who has something 'better' to do than
marching up and down the square?"
"Why yes, Sergeant, now that you mention it, there is."
"All right...well off with you then..." :-)
Fade to black, with the Sergeant left alone onscreen,
marching up and down the square...
