Weekend 9, Blenheim Plt where firing today. The last weekend for the 18 (?) who passed, of the 23 SUTs on the day.
Three months ago we took a load of blokes who looked as if they'd been dipped in glue and thown throught the CQMS's door.
Today I watched 23 guys marching to the 100-metre point; all in step, all squared away. all as fully prepped for their future Army careers as posible.
I thought to myself; "I dd that*." From >60 crows to 23 SUTs who would, when asked "How you feelin', soldier?" shout as one, "like a mean motherf*cker, Sir!"
I did that. I earned my pay. I'm proud of them.
*Obviously I had a bit of help. Some Random Black Man; various SMEs. Lots of Infantry JNCOs. Lots of them.
I'll give it 12 hours before Spaz gets his crayons out.
