When I was doing BMT in Foxtrot coy, my PS 2SG Don was taking
his last batch before ORD. During field camp, he dug a MG trench by
himself. (Although it was rather half a MG trench cuz by the time
we woke up in the morning, he had only dug it halfway.) 
Then during our fire and movement "test", he led a section armed
with a parang and M-16.
