A better idea would be VETERANS and WASHOUTS.
Att exposed to battle (and surviving) would become vets/stronger.
Def soldiers exposed to battle (and surviving) would become vets/stronger.
Cov/ac would get better at what they do.
Soldiers left in the barracks cowering behind a "peaceful" player with no balls get fat, lazy and out of practice, and progressively WEAKER.
Hmmm... so you could build vets by simply beating the crap out of some n00bs... no... needs thought.

Maybe make their veteran-ness (huh???) dependent on the strength of the opponents they've fought too. Oh, and vets should return with less damage to their weapons, being vets.
[Edit]
Attacking n00bs has a negative effect (makes them washouts). They get fat, lazy, overconfident.
