Anyone know if they still use the cattle cars?

Well they packed them so damn full you didn't have to worry about bouncing around.

It beat the back of a deuce while the drill sergeant pretended to not know how to drive a stick.

Sand Hill 2001 and I still have dreams about the stairway to heaven. I'm not sure if it is as bad as I remember but it did suck. I also heard they no longer do the twenty-five miler to Honor Hill.

This is foolish as shite.

I was an XO for a brief stint after IOBC in 2004. No 25 miler then. I don't recall a 25 miler in 1998 either though.

Have to ask one of the snowflakes to tell me again how hard it is to take public transportation around campus

I rode in one a few years ago at Fort Sill, when we got back from a deployment. They have seats and air conditions in them now

Pictures bullshite. No ones standing. And they stopped using those by the time I was XO.

I have been contract trash for the last 15 years. Our body count never makes the news.

Fort Lewis circa 2007 they were still in operation. No A/C and there were metal bench seats but the rows were so narrow you had to sit with your legs sideways and there were so many that people sat on top of people.

We did one at the end of our final FTX. I know they did it up to 2004 because my brother did one at the end of his OSUT.

Same in '99. Had steak and eggs when we got in. Then we learned that "recovery" was not what we thought it was going to be.

3rd row, 3rd from the left. I tried to stay out of trouble but my battle buddy was pamales from Puerto Rico

Warriors breakfast lol. Recovery was just more work with sore feet. Did get to make a phone call home for five minutes though.
