Motivating young people...

ok...i wanna thank missy, bryan, and sophia for helping with the supply room, and kinda thank marty and cj for their directing.

now what am i doing the rest of the week?

Staff Meeting Thursday @ 8:25 TOpics to discuss: Uniforms,NCO Promotions, Shoulder Patches,

so...uniforms are to be turned in soon. i'm going to miss wearing mine.

and i dont care if cj doesnt like the background. :)

DeathEater2006: Before we leave tomorrow we gotta check the supply room
sharpdisaster04: k
DeathEater2006: Make sure Marty has his key
DeathEater2006: Call him or something
sharpdisaster04: hmmm....i'll try to remember
sharpdisaster04: he;s at boyscouts
DeathEater2006: Cuz I gotta make sure the 4 new rifles are hidden.
sharpdisaster04: haha...what rifles...we dont have any
DeathEater2006: Exactly
DeathEater2006: Just gotta make sure the inside of the lockers for the rifles we dont have are empty.
sharpdisaster04: haha....ok
DeathEater2006: O.o should we take the labels off? Cuz two whole lockers for imaginary rifles might not tide over well with Cadet Command Inspectior
sharpdisaster04: yeah...that might be a good idea
sharpdisaster04: or make new labels..."no rifles"
DeathEater2006: lol

Ok, ok. Let's clear somthing up. Even though staff officers are not part of the classroom, they still play a very important role in the battalion. If it wasn't for them, no one would have ribbons or berets, or anything of that sort. Also, the staff is what primarily leads the after school programs. Let's take rifle team, for instance. We needed rifles, and targets, and pellets. The staff organized all of that. So when the staff sees somthing that's not supposed to happen, and the platoon leaders of the class don't do a damned thing about it, then yes, we get pissed. We get pissed because when we see somthing like that, we feel like we're the only ones in the battalion that care about the program. Now, I know that is not true, but somtimes, that's just the way things seem to play out. So if we have to step on some platoon leaders' toes in order to straiten out a cadet, then so be it. We've all put in too much work to just stand there and watch the battalion just fall apart in front of us.

But you don't have to take my word for it, just ask any of the staff officers, or c/LTC Roberts. They'll all tell you the exact same thing.

All of u officers and higher ranks abuse ur privileges and take advantage of lower ranking cadets!!!! Like this morning i heard about a dillema this morning in 1st period... U guys dont even have to participate in class, so y does it matter how the class acts? U think ur better than everyone else and that is the worst quality that anyone could have in a position of power!!! U act like drill seargents when really ur just staff officers!!!!!

Private: "they cant make me do push-ups. i'll get my mom in here. i'm not going outside. its hot. i'll get mr colleck to ignore the write-up"


ha, ok. i mean, i may not want to do them, but i dont complain like that.

this private needs to drop. and if he didnt go outside i was gonna make him.

...some people...

so, i graded the quizzes in my platoon.

its funny really...

open book, and people still failed.

but..you know how people were complaining that i was not in class for the lecture? and that i was exempting myself from the class?

i scored the highest on the test...and it was a decent grade.

he gave us a retest and i finished at least 5 minutes before the others, and i got a 100%....the ONLY 100%.

irony kills me.

i'm in supply right now getting 2 hat pins for 2 cadets in my platoon....

i'm happy because everyone except 2 people have their uniform on. and one person has a somewhat logical excuse :)

..i got a 95 on inspection because i have toothpaste on my pants...grrrrrr...i'm slacking.

right now i'm in jrotc...all by myself. i love this class.

the major and sgt. went somewhere. but i'm to answer the phone and take messages, and if another teacher comes, i'm to be invisible because i'm unsupervised.

but the quiz today is going to be open book, and i have the jist of what it is on. :)
