Milo and green bean night snack never tasted so good before .... or since then. Ah..... memories of youth. 

It was the effort we had to go through to earn that mug of it..

The engine oil, rifle grease and kiwi that went inside was the extra vitamins which made us men..

Ok bring bunk down one confirm is before my BMT time. 

I can't remember how many times canteen break was given during my BMT probably 2 or 3 times... but during BMT I actually have no urge to buy canteen stuff.

My time was $330 per month so I drink tap water🤣

$450 was my OCS junior term pay, but wow, it felt so fabulous 🙂

My son is posted to this newly formed (Yr2020) battalion. 15 C4I. Looks like a geek playground with high tech toys to play. Myself would wish i had been with the drone unit. LOL..  From the video below, the army boys are not shown carrying rifles, they type on keyboards, literally a keyboard warrior. LOL

C4I is a very interesting development, crucial to Sense & Strike capabilities. 

hope he has fun, learns loads and matures during his time there. And stay safe too.
