[Scary]

Well the bad story is from Land Nav. As I'm sure you're aware, like 90% of the guys who go through LTC don't have a clue what they're doing at all, with Land Nav being one of the tougher tasks. Well, they basically give a course on map reading (this is a map) and how to use a compass (it always points north) and let them run around on the course in buddy teams. Well, at night, aparently one of the points was next to like a 15-20 ft well (RIGHT next to it). As you can see, someone didn't see the well and fell down and broke his back. So my buddy, after hearing this, had his buddy hold his LCE the rest of the land nav course and vice versa.

Other than that, what I hear is there's a lot of time spent with 2LT's and not so much with DIs/SGTs.
