career_radio-checker said:That could be a good way of finding volunteers to clean up the class room before heading back to the shacks.
*Walks in with official looking documents* "Alright, who here wants to join JTF2"
*sorted amount of hands go up*
"Alright, you guys are going to assault the cleaning duties. Everyone else on the bus." ;D
And regarding the sleep deprivation, the rifle stock makes a comfy pillow while looking for those commie bushes moving through the night.

Command-Sense-Act 105 said:To further that one about finding volunteers, here is a ninjasniper deflation technique coupled with a way to increase challenge:
Give them a bunch of papers, application forms, personal history essay assignment, etc at about 2300hrs at the end of a long garrison day and tell them that those who want to go JTF/CSOR/whatever must have them all filled out, in triplicate, neat and complete, by PT time in the morning and show up for PT with them in hand. Stress that no one else can see their papers due to the security issues involved with the Unit. They'll stay up all night filling them in.
In the morning, when they are all standing there with their papers in hand formed up for PT, start them on PT. Don't collect the papers. Have the instructor running the PT say that he has nothing to do with them and can't collect them due to security/confidentiality reasons, but they must bring them along because the JTF LO (or whoever) may show up at any time and they don't want to miss their chance.
Conduct PT. Beast them, preferably a run through some water or muck. Have the instructor admonish them to keep their papers dry if they care about getting in.
Have them carry the by-now sorry and bedraggled set of papers around all day with them - classes, meals, smoke breaks, extra PT, cleaning stations, etc. Have someone collect them that evening, then either:
1. Give the course grief over lack of attention to detail/messy papers, etc and make a show about putting them in a burn barrel and getting rid of them. Segue this into the "attention to detail" or "do you think you will pass" or "do you think you are special" or "teamwork is needed here because you didn't help your pals keep their CSOR paperwork neat and tidy so bladed your course mates" rants.
2. Find "special jobs" for the "special people" who handed them in.
3. All of the above.
Either way, another factor that will induce self-stress and work to separate wheat from chaff. Completely self-imposed.

I knew there was something I liked about you.
