quick story to this thread. In JWTC training they brought a 14' Boa Constrictor to show everyone. then they passed a small box of baby boa's around and we each had to take one. the OIC said "these are her babies" and if she hears one of them scream we will not be able to control her. Of the 30 people in that class 8 immediately fainted and 2 defecated in their pants. Next class was with arachnids. They brought out 6 tarantulas and told us to pass them around. These guys where bigger than my hand. needless to say the same ten guys (and 2 more) simply fainted or resigned from the training. (not to bust anyone!!! but 2 of them were NAVY!)

as an aside to this of the 30 military personnel in the class ( 6 Navy seals, 4 marines, 20 Army officers) only 12 of us completed the class (4 seals, 2 marines, 6 Army) we were the largest graduating class from the last three cycles. the one before us only had 8 graduates.

Not that I've been made aware of. ¿Did you do that on Okinawa?

Sounds a bit "Dicey"... ¿What was "Plan A", if the owner of the dump truck had come to see what was going on? (Not that it's really any of my business, and you SHORE don't have to get into any details about it, for MY sake... Just 1/2-curious.)
