i loved the stories my friends tell me...
there was this warrant, did the route march with them without a
rifle sling, so he held onto the... ehhhh... can't remember the
name of that part, what's the plastic covering the barrel???
ok anyway he held the rifle that way through the route march, at
the end he challenged them all to a sprint to the finish. He was
pretty big size (fat like my friend said) so they expected to
outrun an overweight uncle. Well, they all lost.
Then another story was about this other warrant who they thought he
carried pillows in his field pack when doing route march, my ex
unit colleague was something like his runner. So when they were
taking a break, the one time the warrant put down his field pack,
my friend went to try to pick it up and it was heavy (full pack
eh?).
And on the same warrant, there was one point they were blocked by a
high vertical rock, so the warrant told them to wait. Most of them
thought "Like real, want to climb", he climbed up, full pack and
all... tied a toggle rope for the men and asked the guys to
follow.
