This reminded me of a funny incident
There I was, no $hit..
Fresh out of basic, getting ready to start EOD school. Being fresh out of basic awaiting a school slot, our lives revolved around doing details.
Background: EOD is well known for being rather earthy and rough around the edges.
There was a common latrine that needed cleanin. Our mission was clear - clean that $hitter in the name of democracy!
One of my fellow students actually walked up to the SNCO and said
"I was an honour graduate from basic, would you like me to take charge of the cleaning detail."
Huge tactical error. Scarred up crusty EOD SNCOs are not normally impressed with honour grads. After basic, honour grad means precisely dick. Being an honour grad surely won't get someone out of cleaning a latrine.
The SNCO told the troop that because he was a honour grad that he would have the honour of being in charge of the detail. The SNCO then ordered the rest of the students out of the detail and ordered us to sit down and watch the honour grad clean up the latrine by himself.
He never mentioned being honour grad again.
Ahh the good ole days, man they sucked.
