Adventurous routine of Rashtriya Military Schools cadets teach us a great lesson.
Friends, today I am going to share the adventurous routine of the cadets of Rashtriya Military schools in India. First of all it is not easy to take admission in these schools. A student had to burn midnight oil to pass the CET (common entrance test) and then the interview conducted by the school and medical also and after all these things the school would publish final merit list and if your name is in the merit list the you are the lucky chap. These schools' primary aim is to inculcate officer like qualities in the young students so that they can be responsible officer in future. Rashtriya Military schools and the sainik schools are the feeder schools to NDA (national Defence academy). These Schools have many excellent officers to Indian armed forces and many other famous personalities. So let's talk their daily routine...

Sat me in that barber’s chair Spun me around, I had no hair
While I was in college I came to a realization. I had no idea what I am doing. I should drop out. I joined the military after that. More specifically, I joined the Army National Guard. Because of that, my body changed. But more specifically my hair changed. I would like to share with you how.

Marine Corps Stories: For the Love of the Gun
The wreath surrounding her rifle badge shone like fresh nickels from the mint. Her pistol badge told the same story, but only when she wore her service or dress uniforms. On the range, in her beloved cammies, Staff Sergeant Ruth Hazelton held the pistol in her hands. Sweat gathered at her temples while she aimed the weapon on the target and fired. The shots struck the target, each one in the center of the black.

Please US NAVY forgive me
The journey began in 2010. After making it out of separations, I was back into boot camp. One Captains mast down, but more to come. I guess an assault on civilian swimmer isn’t tolerated these days in boot camp. I was ordered to take an anger management course, that’s where, according to Sr. Chief Rodriguez I found out that I might have a big penis, I probably liked to stare at my naked body in the mirror, and I may have been molested as a child. This guy was crazy. He would touch me on the thigh; it was funny to see his reaction. When I would agree to everything he was saying. Like one question was “do you like looking at your naked body in the mirror, I bet your penis is big too? Do you play with it in front of the mirror? What kind of sick questions is this amigo laying on me? I think (hope) they were trying to make me be aggressive, or at least I hoped, with these tactics. Well after all that for a week, I finally passed and was sent to a new division. Wow, that was a close one I thought to myself.

Marine Corps Stories: PRASP
The newly minted Marines expected to be treated like less than nothing by anyone outside their family and friends. With all the graduation celebrations of the last few days, the heady sense had to level off in some way. The two privates of...other privates, Vernon Pattinson and Derio Sales, felt the heights of having endured thirteen weeks on Parris (Paradise) Island, and transformed into hardened killing machines. Instead, they acknowledged the sobering reality that they’d achieved the status of being virtually worthless, powerless, and the lowest of the low. They didn’t even have any chevrons on their sleeves.
