NOTE: THIS IS NOT MY IMAGE, I DO NOT OWN THE ACTUAL RIFLE. IT IS THE SCHOOLS, AND IT IS THERE; I AM ONLY USING IT IN DRILL
We were told today that we were going to begin drill with the M1903 rifle... Of course, the firing pin is removed and a rod is welded into the barrel, thank god. We have a bad enough time as it is with how stingy the school is without some Halo moron running around and shooting someone.

It's for JROTC, the Junior Reserve Officer's Training Corps. We learn military formation, drill (Marching), and about rank structure. It also helps us develop fitness and discipline, which has actually made a tremendous impact in my life so far.
Some actually call it a glorified recruiting program for the US Army, which I think is ridiculous. There's no obligation to join at all, period. |

Lucky. I'm still an LE1, so I don't think I can use a rifle yet. How I envy you and your awesome rifle. |

I'm a LE1 as well. I should have clarified - that isn't the rifle I'm using, I'm using a junky old one from the school. D:
They told us we were gonna start instruction on it while copying the 2nd Quarter Drill Commands. |

So you are using one of those rifles that looks like they are made of plastic? I know I use those. And how awesome it would have been to use a rifle like the one in the picture.... |

Yeah, but ours are painted a stupid shade of Blue with white bands around the small of the stock, balance, and near the front hand guard. D: |

You don't learn how to fire a rifle in JROTC. You learn how to twirl it. |

I just realized...you'll no longer be Revolver Ocelot. You'll now be Rifle Ocelot. *imagines remade MGS1 guntwirling scene, but with Ocelot holding a rifle* *within it, Ocelot trips one of Baker's wires and they blow up* :3 |

I-I don't have the guts to actually get involved with that sort of stuff. A man who was in the military, I think Iraq but I'm not sure anymore, said that this one guy in his group was scared of blood and guns (God only knows why he joined, then...) but when he got there, he was one of the best men in the team.
With me, I know I would be of no use. I am short, frail, nervous, and horrified of my own blood and pain... And loud noises startle me. Not to mention slight paranoia whenever I am playing any video game. After all, anything that moves is usually out to get you. Leads to mistakes whenever I shoot a innocent in Shooters, unless if I hear "WAIT DON'T SHOOT!" or something similiar in time. |
