no more bear crawls

[skim]

I personally like bear crawls. I hated seal crawls though. It f-ed up my shoes and belt buckles. I did my first official PFA. 98-90-10:27 Hells yeah

Yeah since the foamy (useless) hand sanitizer just smeared all of it around on your hands. Brilliant.

I also agree that the stuff done at OCS isn't to build strength. It's to run you down and wear you out. You can't get stronger if you aren't eating enough and getting worked all day. Then you simply become one of Gunny S's Rabdo victims.

Buddy bearcrawls were the tops.

Bear crawl = get in a pushup position. Inch your hands toward your feet and arch your back up. Now move forward. Keep doing so as DI yells crawl and you yell aye sir. It's actually a really good strength workout for shoulders/arms/legs that I'd keep doing if it didn't look absolutely ridiculous.

My DI's facebook says he's not allowed to use them anymore, and he was the most known DI for using bear crawls. I dunno why this is or if it's restricted to only him or the entire command.

Am I the only one that read that and went, WTF? :irked_125

Do you chat on AIM too? Leave each other voicemails?

Ok, I'm done.

I thought it was kind of funny when I first read it (facebook), but didn't think much of it. It is first hand confirmation on the bear crawls, so that's what I took it for.

On a side note: glad you changed your avitar Single Seat.

Confirmed.

I arrived in Newport today. We ran into some of the Candios who will be running our Indoc. and they said we are the first class where they won't be able to do them. Just FYI.

Probably not, but this is a common practice among candidates/DIs these days.

I talked to a sailor about skating and he seemed shocked that I used to skate a lot back in the day, worked for a skate company and that I still have my board. I told him "geez, im not a total f-ing tool you know". I guess as an Officer I need my 80's polo shirt tucked into my jorts with braided belt and listen to Yanni.

That's what I hear. We were out to dinner when two ladies in Johnny Cashs walk up and go "Good evening, 06." I'm thinking, "we're so fvcked." They turned out to be very nice and helpful. For the most part, we are prepared - as much as you can really prepare for something like this.

Were they hot?

Off topic: I was referring to him changing the picture below his name (I think that's an avatar): it used to be homosexual of sorts. That's all I'm going to say. If you saw it you'd know what I meant.

Question

Is OCS basically the same as NSI?
