>"Calm before the storm"
Oh Boy, flashback. "Stand on the purple footsteps maggots"!!! The first words you hear as a recruit. Not long after, while getting your "bucket issue" another recruit replied to a question from a D.I. with the word "yeah", not yessir! He went to the dispensary with unspecified injuries and was dropped from our series. No one ever even thought that word again. Made me wonder if this was the smartest way to dodge the draft. Semper Fi, bitches!
