PS- Montcalm, Scaglione and Conrad were some of the cadre in my RIP class. I never knew there were so many abb excersises until I met SSG Montcalm, same for the pushup and SSG Scaglione.
Then there was SFC Bohanen and the hundreds of flutter kicks with a full can of Copenhagen in his mouth in 1989.
