Mine last week of Army basic

[Fearless-Falcon]

Last week I finished Army basic training woot finaly!

I got some images of the last week (week 17) that where taken by mine instructors. I lost the graduation day pictures.

We are a very young platoon (most of us are 17 years old) because we all did OJKL (a junior army/school program)

Nice Pictures!

[ardy]

I hope you didn't think that was too hard, or even a challenge, because if you did you'll have problems with going SF.. ;)

edit: how long was the excersise and how much did the backpack weigh?

[Fearless-Falcon]

No it wasn't hard (Air Assault was much tougher) but thats because it's basic training. Army Basic is 17 weeks.

[red baret]

[Scottie]

Great pics!! :D

Love them all
