"Worst drill ever" stories
We all love the Guard, and we love serving our country, but that doesn't mean it's all "Hooah" and high speed 24/7. So, let's list a few of those not-so-awesome moments we've had at drill, AT, schools, and deployments.
- My #1 worst drill has to be the one where I was first sent to run the ECG room during a PHA/SRP weekend. If you've never had/given an ECG, you have to understand that all of those yetis have to have patches of their chests shaved in order to accommodate the ECG leads...and it's the medic's job to shave said hairy chests. Let me tell ya, THAT was NOT in the recruiting brochure and sure as **** is not one of the perks of the job.
Call me old if you want. Keep up with me if you can!
