alnilam posted:give me twenty, maggot! there was this drill sergeant who was this lanky guy who could run like a 4 minute mile. his hat holder thing that keeps the brim straight had boba fett and darth vader carved onto it. he once referred to the group of trainees as 'his clone troopers'. huge star wars EU fan. when he was passing out mail one day the company commander walked by and somebody jumped up and tried to call attention and he was like 'sit the gently caress down' and the company commander laughed, and after he had left he was like 'listen, if darth vader is sitting here addressing you, you don't jump up and interrupt because the emperor walks in.' anyway, the story has nothing to do with how much this man loves star wars. there was this one guy who just shook like a loving leaf every time was about to fire a gun, he was just terrified of them. he was the last person to qualify and he had bragged about how he use to go hunting with his dad all the time and he'd do great, but apparently it was totally a lie judging by his reaction to the m16a4. everybody else had manage to get a 3 shot grouping in the same area (for sighting the weapon) and he was still struggling and he had the star wars drill sergeant guy standing over him while he tried and tried and tried. The guy just started verbally berating him and then finally was like 'jesus loving christ private, do you need a hug??' and the guy goes 'YES DRILL SERGEANT' and drops his gun and hops up and hugs the drill sergeant. everyone was like WHAT THE gently caress (silently) because like in basic these days, they will never ever strike you... unless you put your hands on them, then its kind of like you gave them permission. the guy's eyes just bugged out and he just stood there for a second then he hugged the guy, and he hopped back down and got ready for another try. everyone was dead silent, and the drill sergeant goes, 'You better get that grouping now motherfucker.' And he did! I guess the hug helped. He faced no further punitive action that I know of. |
