that's not true. whilst a leader is a team player, there's
always this 'herd' mentality in bmt. he could have well been chosen
as a sacrificial lamb, maybe because he has a 2nd nose or a 3rd
ear. oer perhaps he's simply been chosen as someone to pick on by
another person with much more charisma.
like i said, it's unfortunate that he dosen't click with his
platoon mates. but it should get better. and if it dosen't then
he'd have to re-examine himself. not that it would hurt to do so
right now; but it could be a skewed or distorted opinion seeing
that there's little to no time to think in bmt.
Really, get to know ur section mates well at least. I'm glad i did.
Tho i was sick like half the time in BMT, i chipped in wherever i
could to help my section mates. These are ur BROTHERS in BMT.
People whom u should turn to for help. They may not give u the best
advice all the time, but at least they know what u're
thinking.
Til today, I still go out with my section mates. We hang out, eat
dinner, n play games together. (Aka Section Movement Outings) I'm
glad to have been known them.
i dun hang out with my bmt mates anymore; though in retrospect i
should have kept their contacts.
not everybody enjoys their bmt life, despite being touted as "the
most fun part" of ns life. 'brothers in bmt' only applies if you
haven't already been labelled as 'sister' to begin with. there was
this guy in my platoon whom despite his herculean effort to try and
click, simply couldn't. coz' he reported a loss of handphone one
day and caused everyone to stand by bed. the night of book in on
the last week, he was 'blanketed'. now, that was juvenile and i
would have no part of it. i think it's silly, and sad @ the same
time.
and no, i'm not trying to substitute myself with a 2nd person
perspective. 
i personally enjoyed sispec more then bmt, despite being told
otherwise. largely because i was wiser and smarter when it came to
human interaction by the end of bmt. everybody has a unique
experience, so ya...
