Flags of Our Foul-Ups

 is a quest in Fallout: New Vegas.

Quick walkthrough
If you talk to Sgt. McCredie, you will learn that Camp Golf is home to a group of NCR soldiers called the misfits, the worst group NCR has. Each member of the group will provide the player with seperate solutions to the problem.

Detailed walkthrough
There are four different ways to complete this quest.

1) Talk to O'Harahan about talking to the whole troop about improving teamwork and strengthening their relationships. You'll need Speech level 40 to convince Poindexter, Mags, and Razz. You will gain experience for each party member that is convinced.

You will receive 200 XP and positive fame with the NCR, additionally the team looks to be working well together. If you choose this option Mags will eventually be promoted and the rest of the team will go on to serve with distinction in the epilogue.

2) Follow Mags advice, and teach the squad. You'll need Guns level 45 and Explosives level 45 to get the squad to pass the firing and grenade range. You will need to pass a guns check of 25, 35, and 45 respectively for this choice.  The "Milsurp Review" will add 10 points to your guns statistic if you need it. You also will need to pass an explosives check of 25, 35, and 45 respectively.  The "Patriot's Cookbook" will add 10 points to your explosives statistic if needed.  Remember that the 10 points gained from the magazines are only temporary and can only be used one at a time.

You will receive 220 XP and additional (31+43+55)*2=258 XP (with 10% gain) while teaching the squad and positive fame with the NCR, additionally the team looks to be working well together.

3) Suggest to Poindexter that you could cheat the system. He'll advise you hack the terminal in the House Lodge so that the squad doesn't have to do any work.

There are two computers you can hack. The one in the lobby requires no science skill, but you need to access it when nobody is looking. The other one needs a science skill of 75 but you can access it in peace.

You will receive 200 XP and positive fame with NCR for picking this choice.

4) Listen to Razz, who will have the squad take Psycho. You'll have to talk to Jack in Red Rock Canyon to get the drugs.
