Prussian Army's scheme of classifying recruits
They classified them on two axes:
smart vs. stupid, and industrious vs. lazy.

Smart + lazy became commissioned officers.

Smart + industrious became non-commissioned officers.

Stupid + lazy became cannon fodder.

Stupid + industrious were taken out back and shot before they did any damage
