sometimes, i still can't get really used to SISPEC man.

okay, the most screwed up thing about my company, Juilet, is of course, the funny name. i mean, you're supposed to sound maybe fierce in the army.. so when people ask for your company and they go..

ECHO COMPANY!

ALPHA COMPANY!

juilet company........................... -_-


yes, SISPEC is definitely different from life as a recruit in BMTC. most significant difference is that we can book-in and out in our civilian clothing and bags. so there's no need to wear our no.4 uniform, polish our boots nicely and carry that bulky field pack.

they're not treating us like recruits anymore, not fucking us upside down, treating us like dogs and barking at us constantly like in BMTC. in fact now most of us have appointments that require some degree (usually not very big la) of responsibility.

and of course, like in a real army, every section has its own "specialist", for example a SAW gunner, a M203 gunner.

yup. i was appointed the M203 gunner. -_- shucks. beats being the SAW gunner though heh heh... that gotta suck.

so this morning.. a very interesting scenario unfolded.

we woke up, washed up, and prepared to go down fall in when my sergeant yelled for everyone to fall in.

Sgt: OI JUILET COMPANY! NOW WHAT TIME ALREADY! FALL IN NOW!

*everyone scuttles around, rushes downstairs, those already downstairs were yelling for the rest to come down.

*everyone falls in now.

OKAY, LOOK AT THE TIME NOW. ITS 05 50. FALL IN SHOULD BE 05 45. LATE 5MINS RIGHT? NEVER MIND, I SHALL PUNISH THE ICs FIRST. WHOLE LOT KNOCK IT DOWN!

*the ICs (i.e the trainees that are appointed as the ICs) go into pumping position, us too.

DOWN! DOWN! DOWN!

*the ICs did 5 pumpings.

OKAY EVERYONE, DOWN! DOWN! DOWN!

*the rest of us did another 5.

WHOLE LOT RECOVER! FASTER, FALL IN INTO YOUR PLATOON LEVEL AND WE CAN START THE DAY!

all the while my sgt was like talking in a normal manner and not really screaming at us. damn LOL la, if this was in BMTC i think it'll be like this....

a typical morning in Jaguar...


OI JAGUAR COMPANY! WHAT TIME ALREADY! BETTER GET DOWN THIS INSTANCE! I GIVE YOU ALL 1, NO, 45 SECONDS TO COME DOWN NOW! *mutters cheebye*

*everyone dashes down immediately. those who were already downstairs were in pumping positions. everyone gets into pumping positions.

OKAY JAGUAR. YOU GUYS THINK YOU BIG FUCK ALREADY RIGHT? 3 MORE WEEKS TO POP BIG FUCK AH? CAN FALL IN LATE AH? NVM, ALL DOWN! DOWN! DOWN! DOWN! DOWN!

*everyone lan lan, did push-ups

NEVER MIND, ALL DON'T WANT SHOUT OUT TIMINGS RIGHT? START FROM ZERO! DOWN! DOWN!

*more lan lan, re-do again.

FUCKING HELL, CANNOT DO TOGETHER IS IT? WHOLE LOT CRUNCHES POSITIONS, CHANGE! *mutters cheebye*

*changes to crunches

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS! SLOPPY MOVEMENT! YOU ALL DON'T FUCKING MOVE YOUR BUTT RIGHT? SIMPLE, WHOLE LOT PUMPING POSITIONS

*everyone changes double time

DOWN! DOWN! NEVER MIND CRUNCHES POSITION CHANGE!

by this time i can imagine the sergeant's face, damn pissed off and angry LOL. its normal la, they just fuck us upside down.

man. those days in Jaguar. training with my platoon. the good people from platoon1. i miss those days already. HAHA. well, gotta move on, and learn more.
