My daughter will graduate from basic training next month. Many of you have seen the contest I have running for her, if not, here is the link:

I have discovered that quite a few people have been there. So I thought it would be fun to hold another contest where you can share some of your adventures with us if you would like to.
It doesn’t have to be a poem; just a few lines will work. I bet each of you that have been there have something to tell. It doesn’t have to be about you, it could be about someone else or even a story that has been passed around over the years.
I’d really like to hear any funny stories you have but anything will work as long as it is true.
Please refrain from bashing the Army or religion in this contest and if you use curse words please label your piece as such.
If I don’t get enough entries, this will be deleted. You may enter more than once with 1 story per entry.
