things i've learnt outfield in the past week:

1) people can get very selfish when they're tired.
2) infantry tactics win by sheer numbers, some of the drills we learn are pure suicide.
3) its hard to think properly when you're being shot at, your men are shouting at u for orders, and when you're wearing a helmet.
4) bunny hopping does work when running through the thick undergrowth of the jungle.
5) it takes less than 10mins to get up, fold the blanket, get dressed into long no4, pee, brush teeth and fall in in the morning.
6) the tiredness creeps up to you only after the mission is complete. the human body has this uncanny ability to keep going when charging up a hill, flanking the enemy or doing fire movement. but once the objective is overrun, your legs turn to jelly.
7) i can live through 4 more weeks of BSLC. i really can.
