Welcome to Gaia! ::

Oh man, I have tons...

From a Master Corporal weapons instructor:
-"Feeling tired Officer Cadet? How about you hold up the Mega for me, make me feel a little bit safer"
-"What am I, the best looking guy in NATO? Do you want my autograph? LOOK THROUGH YOUR SCOPE!"
-"SHUT UP" *every time we laughed at what he said, or broke a smile*
-"I'll have you doing push ups to infinity Officer Cadet"
-"How many Taliban can you kill with a 30 round magazine Officer Cadet?" *kid said 30* "WRONG...I could kill 30, you could probaly kill 12...but you will learn to kill 30 when I'm done with you Officer Cadet"
- "Where's my killers in the room...who here are going combat arms?"
-"What's your trade Officer Cadet?" *I tell him MARS* "oh so you're going to watch Whales f*** aren't you? LOOK THROUGH YOUR SCOPE, NOT AT ME"
- "What's the first marksmanship principle?" *kid couldn't answer so he then asked the kid next to him...who answered...then asked the first kid again, who said 'I don't know'* "What date?" *the kid answers the 28* "WRONG, it's the 27th...what day of the week is it?" *the kid answers Tuesday* "WRONG, it's ******** off the crack pipe...someone sort him out"
- "Ever seen that snickers commercial where the man his so hungry and find that snickers machine out in the middle of no where, and so he has one...well Officer Cadet, I see no Snickers machine out there and well I picked up 12 casings out there...so I hope to God you were just too hungry and not too dam lazy"
"Learn to shoot an a** off an ant"

From a Sergeant weapons instructor (pardon the crude language, just I never saw someone swear this much in my life...and it became part of the humor):
- "Now take your f***ing finger, and put it on the f***ing cocking handle and f***ing put that into your f***ing rifle"
- "The next f***ing step is to f***ing aim...sorry about my bad language...now f***ing make sure the f***ing range is set"
- Flips out that one kid kept using his right thumb to take it off safety instead of his left hand, so pulls out a knife and places it against his thumb and tells him if he dares do it again...he'll cut it off
(for the rest of this, I'll remove the f bombs)
- "If you're using your bayonet, that means you're out of bullets and are really screwed...so don't be afraid to show aggression and stab'um like you never stabbed before, and don't stop"
- "MORE AGGRESSION, stomp your foot...you're going to kill someone...I want to see your war face!"

From a few staff members on course:
- "When we get off this bus, there shall be no hopping, skipping, jumping or anything that happens within the first 15 minutes of legally blond"
- "What is ******** in English?" *Kid: uh...mam, I think ******** is English"*
- "You look like a bag of chips"
- "This looks like s**t, and I know s**t isn't the right word ,but I don't know a better English one" *gotta love having francophone instructors...best is when random franco Sergeants come up and yell at you in French*
- "Now when you pull back your bed sheets, make sure it's as tight as a puss-*stops*...I mean just make it tight."
