<p>YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO LET THAT OUT!!!!!!!</p>

<p>now its compromised... i'll have to let the other training officers/NCOs know, and i guess we'll have to change it now...</p>

<p>dang it! i just know recognition won't mean as much to me now that i know what's going to happen. thanks a lot. :P</p>

<p>Wait, wait, wait... if Recognition is more physically demanding than BCT, then summer is gonna be a cakewalk... ;)</p>

<p>clearly! ;)</p>

<p>guess i dont have to work out anymore. made my life easier. thanks guys! :-p</p>

<p>yeah, it basically is. as long as you bring the cakes, i'll arrange one for you...</p>

<p>say, eagle, are you running basic this year?
and hornet, are you emt'ing again?</p>

<p>yes i am. flight commander. it's going to be a long 3 weeks, but should be rewarding.</p>

<p>I respect you for doing that. My cadre were super tired/stressed when we talked to them about their jobs. Our assistant flight commander said he was more stressed than he was when he was a basic. Are you doing first or second beast?</p>

<p>43 days.</p>

<p>first. get to set the standard and be the first to instill standards in the basics. you also get to teach a lot of the key things that they will use for the rest of their cadet career, and in some cases further on. i'm not too concerned with sleep since i got the privilege to work enlisted BMT at Lackland for 6 weeks, and that was just you and the TI for 6 weeks. those were long days</p>

<p>I wonder how Cadet involvement will change next year with the longer BMT. Would it require you to forego your normal leave period?</p>

<p>Good question. I'd assume the answer will be yes.</p>

<p>it won't change it at all. cadets will still be sent down in two groups of 6 week periods, with the middle three weeks over-lapping.</p>

<p>not every sees a whole flight all the way through. i jumped around the first 1.5 weeks until i finally got a baby flight at pick-up tuesday night/wed morning. i saw them for 4.5 weeks (through warrior week) then left. they recieved honor flight, and i couldn't be there for the graduation. it was sad, but that's life.</p>

<p>i was informed at lunch today that I saw eagle himself and didnt realize it was him...</p>
