    Michael McNeil, William Elliott, Travis Halmrast, R.I.P. (27/28 Nov 2013)

    Trav was by far one of the best #1's I've ever worked for on the guns, always looked out for us troops below him and always managed to keep up morale while keeping us motivated. Outside of work he was always a hilarious outgoing happy guy, still can't believe it. RIP to all 3 men :cdn: :salute:

    If you knew he was faking it... why did you give him a chance? And yes if true, this is obviously not acceptable behavior and would result in harsh disciplinary action if caught.

    BMQ easy style?

    Sounds quite a bit different from BMQ as far as the schedule goes, usually 12-14 weeks (first 4 CB'd) the rest are 5 day weeks starting at 0500 going to 2300. Not to mention that if you're going infantry you WILL want to be in good shape.
