The 1st PT test

Here an update:

Sad to say but 10 ppl had to be recycled. Some were sick. Some just didn't make it on the PT test.

The guys were able to meet the battalion commanders, Sargent Majors, etc today. The had E.E.O training. They also received their black ascots. That seem to be pretty exciting.

They didn't get to go to finance and do the rest of their processing because today main focus was on the PT test.

Tomorrow they will attempt to finish processing, get their equipment from CIF and do more platoon training time.

Thursday is the Water Survival test. Michael is was a lil nervous because he is not a swimming. He barely does the doggy paddle. As long as you attempt it, you can move on.

There were still talks of BOLC II but you already have my opinion on that.

No real word on the long weekend. There is a training calendar but it is subject to change at any moment.

Thanks for reading!!!!

Ohhhhh forgot to mention his PT scores.

His over all score was a 230 I think. Shoot I didnt write that one down.

15.23 on the 2 mile run. He was a lil disappointed because he wanted to take a minute off of that.
75 Sits one short of Max. He said he almost had it but collapsed.
62 push ups.

Not bad for an old man!!

He said not bad for initial PT test. Tomorrow is the first day of morning PT.

Before you can go to chow, you have to do a push up for every week you been in training or something like that. They use to have to do pull ups but they had a hygiene issue with people not washing their hands.

Until next time......
