I'm not worried at all for the express test. I don't even try for the standard and never did. I just keep doing them and doing them....doesn't matter to me if I can do 19 or 100 really.
Anyway I am off to be sworn in today...first to vital statistics for a couple birth certificates haha.

So this means you are unaware that there are indeed awards given out at basic? For athleticism, marksmanship, etc etc??
As with any other team sport or exercise, the whole point is to do your very best, and use your skills to help teach and advance others. If you excel at something, don't hide it, use it to help those around you get better. They are looking for people who can lead/follow/and help others succeed. Getting by on bare minimum, even at Basic, is maybe not the bet step to take. Just MHO of course.
Cheers, Kyle

I totally agree with that. Except the individual award(s). I like team awards more. I get more satisfaction out of those.

Meh not me, and I'l explain why. The satisfaction of receiving a team award comes usually with the knowledge that your own personal contribution/skills aided the team and therefore led to the success. The only way I think people can feel proud of being part of a team, is when they act like part of the team. Whether in actual performance, or supporting others to do well. I've been on a lot of winning teams with 3 or 4 people that just did nothing and got the same medal. Its frustrating but hey it happens.
With individual achievements, you do your very best just the same as you would in a team, but you're up against a group of other individuals. Its six of one, half a dozen of another for me. Team awards are sometimes more fun because you have the whole rest of the

And yeah, there are awards. Not sure if I'll get any but oh well.

The secret to searching is search only in the thread that the topic would most likely be in. In this case I tried Physical Training and Standards and voila!!

Seems to me that I have read somewhere on this site a topic or two on writting autobiographies. I wonder where exactly those were?
