Thursday, November 11, 2004 for 2 weeks in a row.. i was on outfield training.. first up was my field camp and then situational test.. one right after the other...
2weeks of being outfield certainly was a lil tough for me at first.. never did i felt so dirty in my life before.. dint get to shower for like so many days... and i really hated the smell of combat ration.. just felt like puking at the sight of it... and sleeping on uneven grounds certainly did not feel right.. my back aches like crazy when u wake up every morning... but well... i guess u'll kinda adapt to it after sometime.. towards the end of the first week... i slowly got used to the outfield conditions and all.. started to learn to eat combat ration a bit at a time.. and by the end of the 2nd week... i kinda got used to it.. well... nt tt i like it very much but at least i'm fine with living on it for a couple of weeks... hmmm... maybe this is wad progressive training is all about.. anyway.. one of the most memorable things about field camp...hmmm.... i think it has to be digging shell scrapes and fire trenches.. not only is it helll tiring but it can also be a rather foul smelling event as I have discovered... it's one thing to smell your own sweat.. it's another to smell your own sweat from yesterday and the day before... plus all that natural earthen compost that got onto your uniform when you're deep in your trench... it's nt very pleasant smelling..and if the previous batch are screwed up.. they'll shit in their trenches before covering it up and when u dig the trench the smell gets soOo bad tt u jus wanna fart on the muthafu*ker's face.. but oh well.. being outfield certainly has it's fair share of fun too.. weird it may sound but i really like to camouflage and conceal myself.. hahah... not jus the part where u find those tall shrubs and pink flowers to put on ur helmet and stuff weed into ur pockets to look like swamp-thing... but i also enjoy painting my face with camo facepaint.. hahah... u people must be thinking tt i'm nuts... but hey.. camo facepaint can really be quite memorable... and as for sitest (situational test) the most memorable thing has definitely gotta be the snake bite... got bitten by a snake on the last day of sitest and was forced to fall out... it was ard 0500 in the morning and i was still sleeping in my tent.. when i suddenly felt a sHarp bite in my back.... and i sprung out of my tent and was shone the torch but i saw nothing.. but the pain jus grew really bad... burning sensation ard the bite mark... immediately went over to the medic and was emergency evacuated back to the medical centre... the swelling was very fast and my pulse was too high blood pressure was too low and a fever was developing.. so i went into the medical bay on 1st priority... but in the end.. it was nothing too serious... thank god it wasn't venomous.. and the fang marks were about 1cm apart so tt's nt too big a snake... wHat aN exprieNce.. | |||
