Why in the hell was he with his Drill Sergeant in the middle of a war-zone...? we move bootcamp to the sandbox?

Adds an element of realism you just can't recreate at NTC/JRTC.

I heard the desert eagle revolvers were the most coveted due to their 3 round burst capability.

They sure do. I'm wondering if somehow, by some monumental brain fart moment, that this guy had mistaken an M9 for a DE. Far fetched, I know, because they look nothing alike. But I have seen some pretty retarded Joes in my day.

Why I'm even giving this buster a small benefit of doubt I don't know. Just feeling nice this morning I guess.

Joe will be Joe, it's possible he's confused, M9's are big with a blue/black finish I remember running some 11C's through the pistol course years ago but not sure if they even do that anymore. Maybe he was an MP or something?

Don't believe everything you hear....

One of my DS was in my platoon. And our PSG was the DS for most of the NCO's in my platoon as well. It was pretty funny running into him after basic, guy didn't tell any of us that he was coming to Riley.
