In August of 1969, it was spartan at best. GP-Mediums on concrete slabs,tar paper shacks, shitburning 55 gallon drums cut in halfand the rapelling tower. With the exception of survival training when we killed a goat, I don't remember hot A's at all.However,I do remember SFC "Duke" Synder bieng on my butt every day until graduation.
But then again, ours was the last hard class. (OK, bring it on !!)
