Awesome day at PT
HELLO Marines!
My name is Erik Redding aka Poolee Redding, and today i had yet another PT function out here in NY. Today two drill instructors came out and a Sgt Major( Sgt Major Heyward ) and it was intense. A ton of physical training which was awesome and i just loved every second of cadence while runing near civilians. After a lot of the PT was over all eight of the RSS stations sat platoon after platoon and we all had a tug of war against each other 10 v 10.
It was a very awesome MOTIVATING day and i cannot wait until i leave in September for recruit training.
I am not aloud to say this yet but

I had a great function today (also in New York), we learned about making maps and such for others to read, did some drilling, IST, and finally went over an m16a2...
We were supposed to get an m16a2, m9, and a bunch of other guns... but logistics failed (welcome to the Marine Corps haha).
Next month is family month... which should be fun

Yea today was my first real encounter with the drill instructors from PI I ship in a month they figured it would be necessary to give us Poolees a taste of boot camp. Enjoyed every moment

Haha I joined the Idaho guard last June and got out in July to join the Marine Corps. Tell him itll be better in the Corps over the Idaho guard. The guard was a pain and didnt tell me I was out until I called them a week and a half before I was supposed to go to basic. Oh well MCRD SD here i come tomorrow.

You guys are making me feel left out lol. All we do is IST every second Saturday. The recruiters say that if all the poolees would pass the f***ing IST we would do some of the things you all are talking about. We are getting new poolees. Guy came in yesterday and could only do 0 pullups 22 crunches ran in 13:28 or something (not sure because I had to run back and try to motivate a guy who ended up running a 15:18). He was somewhat of a fat body but made weight. Some of these guys aren't even trying, and it is hard to help someone like that.

We have amazing recruiters, in addition to the second Saturday of the month IST stuff they hold a two-three hour pool function every Wednesday. The Wednesdays are the most intense because thats when their really trying to get us into shape and prepared. On the Saturdays we do our IST maybe some drill and play some game for a few hours. I think their working on getting a little obstacle course going, should be fun!

I just had an awesome PT yesterday, we did drill and marching and walking in formation. We also did the "Cock,Drill" etc ... The guys at my RSS (Coon Rapids MN) are all in pretty damn good shape. In addition my recruiters and the Sgts at my RSS are cool as hell. Enjoyed it a lot. I can't wait for the Mini Boot Camp that's coming up... we're definitely going to be the strongest RSS there.
