| Basic was quite a ride. Wasn't too bad, although it often seemed like I somehow managed to keep coming up just short of excellence in just about everything. For example: I missed qualifying as Expert on the M16 by one shot.
The number "42" will forever haunt me for reasons other than Douglas Adams now. |

| Poor thing. At least you weren't at Marine basic. (You weren't right?) I hear that Marine basic makes Hell look a lot less scary. |

| Ehh, the Marines just punch up the PT a bit more than we do and insist that everyone scream at each other. And qualifying on the M16 is mandatory, IIRC. In the Air Force qualification is expected but not mandatory, and getting Expert/Marksman just earns you a ribbon and nothing else, really. |

| Really? They've always described it with a certain bit of pride. like, "I survived Marine basic, haha, Idon'twanttotalkaboutit."
You joined the Air Force? Have you received your first assignment? |

| Marine basic runs into their version of AIT which is why they get away with bragging about their basic being the longest.
Active duty Air Force. I've got my assignment, I'm just trying to get the hell out of this damn tech school base. |

| Tech school? Which base are you at? Are you going anywhere interesting for your first assignment? Are you going to be deployed? |
