I did AF Survival School at Fairchild in March.. BURRRRR ... temps ranged from 5 to as high as 35 the week we were in the field..... snow... ice.... it was a blast. Yes ...we killed the RABBIT!!! Glove skinned it... and ate it... hell on a dare I sucked the eyeball out of the socket and ate it.... Not many bugs in March in the Mountains north of Spokane. I lost about 8 or 9 pounds that week. POW training ...that was a whole story unto itself. We actually had a Navigator type who got pulled from the field and washed back a class..... dumbass had his shelter collapse on him in the middle of the night from the freezing rain/ice and he didnt get up and fix it.... .when we found him around 530am ( he didnt show at the fire ), he was hypothermic from the cold and getting wet.
I went to water survival class at Homestead. Now that was fun!!
Good times!!
