I recall the term for being sent back in training was being "asswalled"
or "azwalled" or something like that. It was my biggest fear and it
usually happened because you got sick or injured. I remember doing PT
sessions while running a high fever and being sick as a dog but I
refused to go to sick bay in fear of having to "go back" in any of the
training. All I wanted was out of there.

That's all any of us wanted. I was in basic with a NYC transit cop
who took the final PT exam while he was sick. He collapsed unconcious
after completing the mile run and we never saw him again.

1965, Air Force was not physically as hard. We only lost one guy, and he
got a medical discharge. Doing push ups he got a shoulder separation. He
had them before, and the pre induction physical should have caught the
defect he was ttold, we marched. And marched. And marched some more.
Besides running, and running and running and jumping jacks while a cyborg
led us. Had to be a cyborg , as he never tired.

When I went through boot camp the various companies competed for
"flags". Our company commander was intent on winning the athletic flag
so we did a lot of PT drills, usually first thing in the morning and
after dinner at night. Still didn't work. Some other company won the flag.

We could test out of a lot of the "off schedule" PT.
If you could do the 25 pushups, 30 situps and 10 pull ups, you did not
need to go to the fat body sessions.
They doubled that before we graduated
We still did plenty in the course of a normal day tho.
Most of it was more along the lines of "cardio" than strength
training. They said it was just to get our blood going after a couple
hours in class.

Somebody (I suspect my dad was right in the middle of it but being almost
10 years older than other recruits they all looked up to him) took the
guts out of the officers gasmask before bivwack. They got tear gassed
that night, my dad still roared with laughter telling the story of the
sarge flying out of camp with no mask driving a jeep....:0

Anyway, nobody tattled so they ended up digging and filling holes till
someone gave up. They never gave him up and they dug holes from what I
can tell for probably a week and a half until the officers decided it
wasn't productive....

Why would someone look up to an idiot like your dad? **** like that is
asking for penalties!

**** you you silver spoon piece of ****..

**** you you stupid ass. Your dad was an idiot to do crap like that.
Apple did not fall far. And I earned my money, did not inherit silver
spoon.

Sorry dude, you brag about it too much to have worked for it yourself....
maybe you got it off the backs of others like harry, lord knows you troll
from deeper under a desk than he.

I worked my way through college. You were to lazy to try. And I am
comfortable. Worked hard in the computer design world. You lazed around.
Dip****!
