    One of the drill sergeants in my cycle was leaving halfway through. He walked off the drill pad one last time. We all told him “Have a good day, SERGEANT!” as he was wearing a normal patrol cap instead of his campaign hat.
    He left, walked for about ten seconds, executed an about face, returned to the drill pad, and smoked us one last time for a good fifteen minutes.

      @@arandomhorse1488 As a former Sergeant with 10 years in and one tour to Iraq, I can tell you if you're ready to answer the call and join the greatest military of all time, here's a few tips to help get you through. First off, if you drink or smoke, quit that shit right now. You don't want to be going off to basic training while being dependent on nicotine or alcohol. You don't receive the time for either in training. Second, work on your PT (physical training). Believe me when I tell you, the ARMY will get you in shape, it's going to hurt, it's going to suck, and sometimes you may wonder what you got yourself into, but you will make it through it. Drill Sergeants won't let you fail. So, the better shape you're in before you go, the better. Third, you are giving up your freedom to give freedom to everybody else. This is called sacrifice. When you sign on, you are giving away most of your rights and saying that you are 100% willing to do exactly what you're told, when you're told to do it, and in most cases, without question... Fourth, you will no longer be an individual. You will be a member of the greatest team on Earth. You are a link in the chain and a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. Everything you do has to be what's good for the team. Fifth and most improtant, you must want to challenge yourself physically and mentally. The military starts out rough for everyone. It gets better though the longer you're in. It's never really easy though. If it were easy, everyone would do it. Fact is though, only 1% of our nation's population will serve in our military willingly. Take pride in that fact. When you become a soldier, you sit on a higher pedestal than most people, and you must never do anything to reflect negativity on yourself or the military. Hope this helps. Good luck.

    Thank you Drill Sergeant for your service, I did my basic at FT Lenoardwood in 1976, I had just turned 17 on September 2nd and I enlisted 26 days later, little did I know what awaited me once I got to basic training, it was shape up or ship out!!! I chose shape up, at the time I didn’t realize why the DS was constantly jumping up and down and yelling get down and give me a 100😖 but I learned real quick what that meant, I did everything I was told and then some because it just made sense!!!! See the front and lean position isn’t to comfortable especially after 2 hours🤣 I think about my time in the service a lot but I will never forget what our drill sergeants were trying to accomplish. I’m thankful for men like you, whose job was to make men out boys. Again thank you for your service and God Bless you “Drill Sergeant”

    Will be 45 this year. Signed up way back about 6 months after i witnessed two airplanes fly into two buildings on 9/11. I didn't stay in for 20, i lost my younger brother to Iraq and didn't reenlist, i came home to be back with family. More for them than me i now realize. But damn, not a day goes by that i don't think about it. This. All of it. Everything. I miss it more than anything and would do it all over again.

    I graduated from B610 in 1991, from that place, before they had a Walmart and a mixed basic training of females and males. We were the first set of females for the Male Infantry Drill Instructors. I was probably the only one they couldn't make cry. I had to explained to the staff that I grew up with ALL males, had Nuns for teachers, my Mom grew up near Whitey Buldger gang and my Dad grew up in the projects in Charlestown. The drill Instructors use to tell me I was crazy. I use to tell them they were paying me to get into shape and I did not have to pay a gym membership! At the end of graduation, they told me, I should think about becoming a drill instructor. My nickname from the drill instructors was Private Benjamin. If you have never seen the movie, you should. I just never wanted to call home. I loved every moment of the Military. Thank you for your service, dedication and for shaping the minds, and teaching the young soldiers to have Honor, Respect and Dedication.

It is because of people like you training us to be soldiers that keeps our great nation free. Good luck with all your future endeavors.

    @akilla214u2c 4 года назад

    Hoooaaah! I was in basic in 1994 at Leonard Wood. The memories never fade, you hated it while there, but missed it when your gone.
    Even though I was a high school runner, the Army had me in the best shape of life, never before and never since. It was better than the college experience, I would not change a thing about that time.
    Today, I'm a Federal employee, GS14, leading others, and it was the Army that got me to this point. Some Army experiences dont end with a fairy tell story. Some stories end better than mine with, retirement, education, degrees, federal job, combat time... not in that order.
    GL new soldiers make the best of that time. You only get it once.
    Go Army For Life! Yeah, that's my new slogan.
