I remember the 1st day enlisted... blur like .....
after the numerous admin issues, by late afternoon, everyone fall-in to OC speech...
Imagine a blur guy in late teens seating there waiting for speech.. The OC first message had been drilled to my head...
1st message given was, obey all instructions, regardless right or wrong... do it first then complain, if complain first and dont do, will be charge.. when cpl ask you to jump, you can only ask, how high cpl?
2nd message was, dont expect beauty sleep.. OC say, research shows a soldier only require 4 hrs of sleep to remain active, and min of 2hrs sleep in operation environment.....
He do live by his words, a verage recruit taining day will end around 12 or 1am and wake up at 5.30am.... 6 days a week.....
