Best Friends Can't remember any names. I recall three guys in my squad were on their way to WOCS school for helicopter flight school after basic training. They were from CT or VT area.
Best Moment Had a few great moments. 1.) Selected as Squad leader by SFC Moore. 2.) PT score making me eligible to wear a "super jock" pin, that allowed a few perks, like going to the front of chow line and no KP. 3.) Maxing the Soldier's Stakes Course - 1000 of possible 1000 points. 4.) graduating with my dad flying over from Germany and my Uncle Wilson driving up from NC to watch.
Worst Moment
Had a few bad moments too. 1.) Failed the first PT test which was 5 events. Maxed each event except for the horizonal bars because they rolled, slipped off. 2.) a week or two before graduation I had my squad leader stripes taken away by SFC Moore because he found my footl locker unlocked. Lock was on it through hasp but apparently didn't secure and dropped open. 3.) got extra KP duty. I was waiting an hour for phone booth to call Germany (to my future wife) and as I literally got connected the drill sgt told me to get off phone. Drill was from another platoon. Call was about 30 seconds tops. Nice guy-not! 4.) one of the fire guards (dumb ass) was caught smoking by a drill sgt who had the whole company fall out in their skivies doing pushups in the snow/freezing weather on the hard ball (asphalt)in front of building for about 30 minutes. The next day a huge number of troops went on sick call. Luckily I wasn't one of them.
Instructors Drills - SFC Moore and SSG Dutton. Interesting note -almost 20 years later, I ran into SSG Dutton in 1996 at St. Mere Eglise drop zone at Fort Bragg on his last parachute jump, retiring as a CSM. He wasn't wearing his Drill Sgt patch so I had to comfirm it was him. I think it punctuated his career to have a former trainee recognize him from his previous 20 years. He was a great Drill. Mucho respect!
