    Default Just got home on leave

    After 3 rough days........ And I already love doing this!

    Wednesday was hard, alot of new people, impressions and we managed to get very little sleep to thursday. Thursday was a blast, hard physical workout, lots of discipline training etc.Today was alot of information, learning various stuff.

    Got sent off for leave a few hours ago, and had a beer with the other dudes on the team.

    And the platoon we are in, just work great. No personal schitt or anything to take care of, we all respect each other, and we have all adjusted to the mentality of "One for all, all for one".

    Overall, I am extremely psyched about this. I have never been more motivated or had more drive for anything. Heck I cant wait until it is monday and we have some more training.

    Major plus for me, was our Sergeant/Instructors.. Those guys rule. Two of them really made a impression on me, and I really saw what I wanted to become someday, proud, honorful etc. Made a very strong impression


    So, anyways.. Just letting you all know, that I am alive and well here in ole Denmark!

    Take care fellas,

    -Alex (Private Alex)

    Nice bro! Was wondering today how you'd be getting on! Will look into that rifle.


    The lack of sleep is the one thing preventing me from trying the army too

    I like that type of army! A few days on and a few days off. That means one can visit the women more often! What am I saying??? I am a 51 year old married OLD FART!
    Glad to see your thread/ post bro!

    Glad to know you like it there.
    Best of luck hope everything goes well and keep enjoying your experience.
    Just remember a Sergeant needs a moustache, keep that in mind.

    See you later Private Alex.

    Bwhahahaha... Well, this is the initial draft period, remember? I just found we have leave every weekend.

    Once we start the REAL stuff in december though..... Sheeesh it will be HARD.

    Pierre --> Lack of sleep... Come on, 8hours sleep from wed to fri is fine... Sleep at 0100, up at 0500


    But I guess, all of this really does conclude my little Denmark > USA thing, eh??? I even have smoke breaks occasionally Of course it helps when the Sergeant himself smokes....

    BFJ --> I have actually grown a moustace.... It is allowed. But no, no pics

    DLT --> You would have loved this, then.... When they let us off on friday for weekend leave, we got told that we had 3 missions for the weekend.

    1. Get laid

    2. Get drunk

    3. Get picture of sister/girlfriend for sergeant.




    Anyway, thanks fellas.... I aint complaining yet, and doubt I will really complain... This is just so what I was looking for

    Yes, that has happened to me....

    Also, try standing in attention and not being allowed to move, under ANY circumstances, and have a wasp sit on your face.






    Did I tell you I am dead scared by wasps btw? You can probably imagine what happened


    Yngwiestein --> Yuck.

    Jerryjg --> We do have a total Gomer Pyle in our platoon. Not me, but you get the picture
