Dang, TR. You probably just killed the thread with that question.

I know for a fact that two guys in those pictures are now officers. I went to school with them before I graduated.

Back then, they kept all the female troops behind the barbed wire at the WAC shack...or don't you remember?

Yeah and got caught a few times doing infil/exfil techniques training. Took a couple of practices until I had it down pat.

I refuse to self incriminate. There is a Bill of Rights that says I don't have too.

It could be worse, remember the "Tender Hearted Killer" episode that was printed in a hometown newspaper detailing all kinds of BS that was lapped up by the MSM?
I was in O&I (AKA: Oh My Eye!) when that hit the motorized oscillator.

Senior ROTC Cadets spending their summer training camp supporting Robin Sage; definitely not Hudson High 3rd LTs.

I'm not appalled. In fact, this is perfect. Very realistic in terms of G's. I've seen real life G's do waaaay worse. It is sobering, however, that one, or more of these guys, are officers now. But, as an LT I did stupid stuff (just nothing like this).

At least nothing that was (1) photographed or videotaped by someone's cell phone camera and (2) posted on the WWW. I am sooooo glad we didn't have those things when I was younger and less...ummmm...impulsive. IMO some thiings were better old school.

We had Cosmo-nauts when I went through Robin Sage. They were Helicopter mechanic. Phase three started Nov 1 and ran almost to Thanksgiving.
"There we were . . . it was a dark and stormy night . . . " we had to scoot out of the G-Base. (It was such a nice comfortable base too! Hootches and a big firepit, water close by.) So were herding these guys down the old carriage paths and we've been walking a few hours in the dark, and the wet, and the cold. (And they have no idea where we are but I'm sure they thought we were lost.) As we're stopped for a map check I was trooping the line I overheard one guy complaining "Man, this sh!t is not worth a Three Day Pass!" I leaned over and whispered "You think that sucks? Todays Veteran's day, It's the middle of a Four Day Holiday."

No, wrong patch. They are definitely not from Hudson High School. Probably a local ROTC unit or possibly VMI. I'll have to pass on your name for USMA cadets to my son though, he'll get a kick out of Hudson River riff-raff. He's a ring knocker from 88.
