I was a G Chief once. I got the impression the TL didn't care much for me. WO Ian C was the Team Sergeant. One of his troops KIAd a box turtle. Seems they didn't realize that that particular species holds a very special place in the hearts of PL nationals. Ian came up with some rather innovative ways of expressing his remorse. The funeral was beautiful - full military honors. I thought them charging over the hill screaming "Viva La Tortuga" at the top of their lungs was a nice touch as well...

Somewhere a True Believer is training to kill you. He is training with minimal food or water, in austere conditions, training day and night. The only thing clean on him is his weapon and he made his web gear. He doesn't worry about what workout to do - his ruck weighs what it weighs, his runs end when the enemy stops chasing him. This True Believer is not concerned about 'how hard it is;' he knows either he wins or dies. He doesn't go home at 17:00, he is home.
He knows only The Cause.
Still want to quit?
