And possibly the country, ladies and gentleman, CDT Steve James. Pictured at the top, this remarkable physical specimen is soon to be a proud member of the Chemical Corps, and will undoubtedly be the most tenacious of his kind. Just his physical presence intimidated my camera, which was unable to focus out of fear it might be caught staring at this half human, half cyborg (the last camera caught doing so started out digital, but ended up a Polaroid). Word on the street is that CDT James can literally bench press the state of Nebraska. He showed off this morning by topping off the ruck packing list with solid concrete blocks.
The rest of us mere mortals participated in ruck PT, only with a more realistic load. The weather has continued to confine us to the gym, so instead of a ruck march we had sprints and ruck strength training. Pushups, squats, lunges and the like made much more difficult by the extra weight.
