Back in my cadet days the base training was formally named "Two Week in Training". There is nothing like being called a Twit all the time. I would prefer rat I think.

for example: if you just counted straight to 20 you might start thinking, "holy shit. that's alot. I'm exhausted" and tire before you might using the other method. it's an old training trick. I've used similar ones in the past with great success. |

The "trick" was to NOT get the attention of my team leader, squad leader, platoon Sgt, 1sgt, etc... Doing push ups with a boot pressing on your back is way harder, no matter what number you are on!!!

Nope, I have scoliosis. Seriously though, I learned how to deal with highly stressful situations at NMMI. It was a great experience for me.

I went to boot camp in Orlando. Our sister company had real sisters. Because I was the starboard watch LPO, I got a cush assignment and a girlfriend during work week.
