In 2000 I was in basic training in South Carolina. I'm from California and my battle buddy was from Hawaii. One day it's snowed and my buddy left formation and ran around catching flakes with his tongue.

Drill sergeant just let him do it. It's the only time I've seen someone get away with something in front of drill sergeant.

Aww, that sounds so goofy and sweet! The drill sergeant sounds like a nice guy, what did you think of him?
