Re: I made corporal!

Re: I made corporal!
Thank you, SSG. It's nice to be able to help the new cadets get things done- I never got too much of that.

Re: I made corporal!
Scary-
Though I understand your frustration, It's good to know I can train motivated cadets new stuff, and help them on the road to serving their country. Yeah, it aint exciting or glamourous, but it beats having to BS w/ the brass, cause they dont really give a rat's, whereas a new cadet will soak in whatever you have to say, and look to you for leadership. I'll train the new cadets as long as possible, and plead ignorance with power point! Who knows, though. Seems like Alpha Co. has enough computer jockeys to get the job done. -C/Cpl.

Re: I made corporal!
Ai-
Just had lab- the orders given were to be pressed and dressed-then we did IMT, low crawl, hi-crawl, etc. Whatta clusterfuck. Oh, well, I put on a good show for the 4's and the observers, and had fun! One of the cadets got deployed to louisiana- he's prolly stackin sandbgs right now-charlie mike brother. -C/Cpl. Black |
