Military training?

[javaguru]

I went into Basic in better shape than I came out.

I was there 2 weeks before I heard the work "push-up". AF basic was only 6 weeks long then.

I lost 17 lbs, but it wasn't from anything strenuous, they didn't give you much time to eat.

We played maid everyday. Make the bed, D.I. would rip it apart and we'd make it again ... sometimes this went on for hours.

That's the Air Force..what did you expect...

Much respect to the A-10's...

the last two beds in our barracks were bunk bed with caps on the top.

near the end the D.I. gave us the Officer and Gentlemen speech saying, "in every class there's always a group that thinks they're smarter than me" ... the he pulled the cap of the bed post and pulled out candy wrappers we stored in there for several weeks.

When you design the airframe around the weapon system you must be on the right track.....Just sayin...

Its called pre-basic training; its not mandatory but if u arrive at basic and got ur checklist completed u make rank; (ie. Pass your pt test, know your liniage, military alphabet, rank structure for enlisted and officers; and a few other things..) been available since at least 05' but not mandatory, jus reccommended and u get a pay increase so why the fuck not if ur govmt. property anyway, might as well get paid

Its been available well before 05' and they call it Delayed Entry Program also.

Joining the Navy kept him stateside. He spent the Vietnam years at Millington TN and Norfolk VA, at the NAS. Later he served in Irving TX, Miramar NAS in San Diego, Philadelphia, and Chicago. And a few months at Mildenhall in England.

Used to live in San Diego, Ah Miramar....the Marines own that base now. Good thing he made out on that one. He went to North chicago to train booters?

I don't know much about his service beyond what I already wrote, except that for most of the time he was a chief, sitting on his ass in charge of an avionics warehouse. Problem was that whenever I asked about his service, he just started reeling off a bunch of alphanumeric crap that makes no sense to a civilian, and I learned to just not ask anymore.

Who the fuck uses the military enlistment as a weight loss tool?
