I went through basic in the 90's, and we certainly weren't as radicalized and polarized then as we are now, so that could have something to do with the different experience. Or maybe it was just because it was a different branch. Also, basic wasn't co-ed when I was in, and men don't tend to form as tight of bonds when women are around, since they compete with each other for the woman's attention instead of banding together to overcome adversity. I saw that happen in AIT, which was co-ed.
