waiting for my prac date and rather excited! :)

at prac and depot are they looking for ...

yeah I guess the crap parts are to be expected atleast there outweighed by the good times though, Im guessing things got alot easier after week 6? I was told the corporals take those 6 weeks to get the people that dont want to be there out of the way so they can focus on those that do.

how've you been finding the training so far? is it what you expected from what you were told before you got there? have many people opted out of your platoon?

Pretty sure you have to do 3.5 mile then 1.5 mile best effort with no rest in between? Sandy?
