I hope you didn't say "Yes Sir" to your Drill Sergeants

Not once. They didn't know my name till 3/4ths of the way through when my lead drill looked at me and said "Who the hell are you?" I got to do my first 100 push ups in a row because he didn't know who I was.

Summer of 1980, Fort Benning, Ga. Sand Hill. Basic and AIT. Hottest summer ever!

Lol. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same. They knew me pretty quick. I went in with a buddy and we laughed at everything and isn't take it seriously. They saw that pretty quick and fixed that for us.

Regardless of branch of service, what year did you go through basic and at which base?

Me: US Army, Fort Dix, NJ Winter 1989/1990

Cold as a witch's knee in a brass knee brace. I think it snowed 2-3 times per week.

Strike 1
That started 4 years later in 1993.

Maybe you should just stick to calling people "Jethro" and pointing out how intelligent you are in comparison. That has worked so well for you so far. Why deviate now?

got in2 a fight with a dude my 1st day. since i was the shortest guy there, he decided it was a chance to prove how much more bada** he was than me by belittling me. then i stomped his face in. funny how all the big tough guys really aren't that tough when the people they bully don't back down. ran 7 miles that day in the georgia heat. had no idea how humid georgia was until that day
