Brainwash Training in the Army :: Personal Narrative Writing

Brainwash Training in the ArmyI never would have imagined I would leave the Army persuade. Everyone has the preconception that radical training would be kind of hard and that you would leave in shape. Everyone finds armorial bearing camp challenging, and the reward you get for completing it? You leave a brainwashed killer. I joined the Army National Guard while I was a senior in high school. I was tired of Bristol and my unfulfilling keep in Tennessee. I could not wait to leave and go off the beaten track(predicate) away from home and see what other places had to offer. In August I left for Ft. Jackson, South Carolina, a basic training post. There were a five or six of us that left from Knoxville by cutting edge to get there. We arrived around midnight. As soon as we stepped out of the caravan we were ushered into a room like cattle. There was already over a hundred people sitting elbow-to-elbow on the floor. This room was extremely slender and overcrowded, but I managed to w edge myself between two people. Someone was break behind a counter telling that we could not have weapons, drugs, sexy material, and things for gambling with. After that, the people in charge, drills sergeants started yelling at us and telling us to get up and run out of the building. They ran us to other building. This building had our beds in it. We were told to go upstairs, put our things on the bunks, and add plunk for down. The drill sergeants verbalise that we had one minute to accomplish this and that fifteen seconds of it had passed. All of us darted up the stairs, knocking each other down, nerve-racking to make it back down in time. All of us arrived back down stairs to the screaming of drill sergeants. They were saying, Front leaning rest position move. Once the drill sergeants saw me they got really angry. I was just standing there because I did not know what take care leaning rest position was. One of the drill sergeants came over and began to verbally assault m e, yelling, Are you deaf? I said, FRONT LEANING persist POSITION MOVE I told him I did not know what that was. He replied that it was the push-up position in a very unfriendly manner.He said it was all right that I did not know what that meant, because I was another dumb inbred from Tennessee.
