I'd have to say that post count trumps TOB (time on board).

My Drill Sgts favorite line was. "I'll smoke your a$$ like a cheap cigar". He must have used that line twenty times a day.

Modern day Basic training is ajoke.
I have two guys in my firehouse that just got out of basic. they were telling me all about it. it sounds like a CubScout den meeting compared to when Iwas in back in the 80's.

One used to have us sing a cadence while running: Up jumped a ranger from a coconut grove... he was a mean mother fu#$er you could tell by his clothes... he wore a three dollar beanie and a two button stitch... he was a hard core engineer, a son of a Beotch... he lined a hundred women up a against a wall... swore to himself he would fu#$ them all... fu#$ed 98 till his balls turned blue... then he backed off, jacked off and fu$%ed the other two.
Ahh yes, the good ol' days. I heard that quote on day one in Boot Camp, on day one at OCS, and sung that Jodie a thousand times in both as well.

Nope, can't talk like that anymore. No comment from me....but if I could......

I'll be the Sargent in charge of the motor pool.

I can't believe nobody else claimed that job yet.

Special Forces for me!

Although, I'm really an Army of one...

Oh, don't expect me to be clean shaven or have short hair.

"My Drill Sgts favorite line was. "I'll smoke your a$$ like a cheap cigar". He must have used that line twenty times a day."

Somehow, the imagery of the DI's statement is a little disturbing. Did he realize what he was suggesting? Think about it.
