Didn't want to start a new thread for this, but we start jumping Monday, god willing then graduate this next Friday. I've been PTing my ass off, and running too. Cardiac hill is fun shit if you're not going at an Airborne Crawl.

DEPS, let me know if you're curious about anything in training or otherwise up to this point, I'll see if I can help you out.

Driving the fuck on,
Malarkey.

X2 on that one troop, 350 was baseline "capable MF" back in the day. And I have to think that current "sports theory" has that as an old benchmark for the current athletes in the ranks.

Otherwise, that ain't ice water in those veins...and can be smoked at will. Let every sleeping Griz, sleep...there is always one awake and waiting on your ass sooner than later... ration all available piss and vinegar for the long haul.

Self confidence is mandatory...Constant realistic self assessment and adjustment even more so.

IMHO

Keep your head out of your 4PC, never let quit be an option, always keep the faith.

Graduation becomes more and more a group effort down the line.

Again, IMO
