When I was at Marine OCS, one of the guys in my platoon had a magazine in the John. He left it in there and the Sergeant Instructor found it. SI came out and asked whose it was. He fessed up and the SI returned the magazine. Then SI said he wanted a copy of it by Friday. The whole platoon had to split up the magazine and hand copy it, words, pictures the whole thing front to back. It was pretty ingenious.

Made the comment that all this fine Georgia mid summer rain sucks while in formation, so pvt. Dunny got to mop up all the rain water in the parking lot and street, and when I carried bucket to the third floor Latrine to dump the water down the drain, I got to yell out "drill sergeant, private dunny requests permission to dump this fine Georgia rain down the drain" then wait for a response while holding such said bucket chest high

Not the worst thing I ever did to someone. I found an M109A5 unsecure in the motor pool at Dona Anna Range. Had a mechanic park in front of the Flag Pole. Suffice to say my BN didn't suffer from unsecure tracks after that. One AT at Camp Roberts myself and the Sergeant Major went around taking pictures of ourselves in unsecure vehicles. Suffice to say the nightly BN meeting was entertaining.

CPT Gary Wilkins
Greets, Petty Officer Litz! I was in the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps as a High School student (I ended up going through Army ROTC and became a tanker--but my Dad was Navy). Went for 3 weeks of basic training to the Naval Training Center (flew there in a C-130) in Orlando, FL (BRACed some years ago). We had our heads shaved, etc. Regular Navy recruits preferred us over high school Navy ROTC students (who did nothing but bitch). One evening, I locked my "A&B" drawers, but failed to check whether the lock was securely latched. The Master at Arms came through and when he pulled on my lock, the lock arm pulled out. I then had to bring both drawers, one at a time, to the Chief Petty Officer's office ( First Class P.O. Ackerman) at the front of the building (a long way!), dump them out (and my grandmother had given me maybe 15 or so of those little damn hotel soap bars, I had about 15 pairs of folded socks, along with other assorted items, in those drawers). I asked the Petty Officer if the socks counted as one item. He said "Hold the pair up by one individual corner." The other sock peeled off. "No," he said. So I had to carry first each drawer, then the lock, then each item, back to the barracks one at a time, taking off my shoes at the door each time so as not to scuff the deck. Finished after 3.5 hours, well after lights out. Royally sucked! But, damn me if I EVER failed to make sure my lock was secure after that--and I stayed in touch with Ackerman for nearly 15 years after that experience.

SSgt (Join to see)
I have a feeling someone knew before then, just waited until 3 am to notify the platoon sgt about it on purpose to make it just that much for fun for them.
