Memories For This Unit
Worst Moment This was winter training, those of us from Recon were NOT the trainers. I dehydrated badly, it was so fucking cold, our mummy-bags were rated to 20�F it got to -15� or more every night. The training, supply, preparations SUCKED.	Other Memories I guess I should NOT have taken that Schnapps with me, it exacerbated the dehydration.
