That brings me to a question, NFLD Sapper, during our occupational training which is after SQ i believe, will the PT be instructional or do we have to do PT on our own?

perfect

yeah that will definetly be a dirty jog, im not sure what types of running and stuff is done in the engineer trade after BMQ but i would assume its always gonna be hard.  But I also hear that during the runs you may stop and rattle off some push and sit ups etc. So that might make it a bit...
