Only 30 days for field training? Drats, I had to suffer for 50 days in basic (although, not much suffering happened, as it was, as you say, a mind game. The heat was the only problem).Relaxing till school starts
No, we have FT at Maxwell on the OTS complex. However, some ROTC cadets also go to Elsworth but they are going to move them to Maxwell in a year or two as well. And did you happen to know of a MTI named Sgt. Phebus?Only 30 days for field training?

Nah although the old series is pretty dang fun to watch.am i deprived because I've only ever followed The Next Generation?
Very good series.. at least all the episodes I saw awere good.I like Babylon 5 better, myself.
Too bad the Ranger spinoff didn't get too far. That was good as well.Very good series.. at least all the episodes I saw awere good.

Ya between Vir and Lenir it's hard to beat.Too bad the Ranger spinoff didn't get too far. That was good as well.
I liked the fact that the whole series was planned out before they even started filming. And each major character had a "back door", should the actors be unable to continue with the series, for one reason or another.
My favorite character was Vir Cotto (Londo's aide de campe, of the Centauri Republic). He's just too funny!
You would remember him if you ever knew him. I dont know much about the ranking of MTI's but he has a blue ribbon on his cover which I was told means he is in the top 5% of TI's or something like that. He was.... intense. One of my favorite quotes from him while we were preparing for our final parade with General Lorenz,Ahh. I can still imagine the heat, though.
No, can't say I recall the name. I only dealt with 3 MTIs directly (my flight's TI, my brother flight's TI, and a sub TI), and only about 4 others can I recall their names.
Sgt. Phebus said:I want yall to be the most motivated bunch of retards ever!
Sounds like basic, all right. Yeah, the blue ribbon was the top of the MTI corps. I learned quickly not to mess with them. We called them "blue ropes", because of the blue cord around their hats. (Which caused some confusion when we went to Tech School, as the MTL [Military Training Leaders] had blue ropes around their left shoulders).You would remember him if you ever knew him.

Another funny story from him, he was chewing out our sister flight which happened to have a prior enlisted in it. Phebus found out and asked him who his TI was. So he told him, turns out Phebus knew who the TI was and immediately pulled out his cell phone, called the TI, and gave it to the cadet.
Thanks for the support.My husband and I watched a show on the Marine Corps survival school last night on the Military Channel. I was SO impressed. Thank God for our servicemen and women!
