On 100th Day (100 days before graduation), 4/c and 2/c switch rolls for the day. 2/c dress like 4/c and square meals, double time, march to class, etc. 4/c can listen to music, talk in the pways, inspect rooms, etc. As fun as 100th day is for the 4/c, I had more fun as a 2/c.
It's also important for the current 4/c to remember.....there is a 99th day, and on that day, you're a 4/c again...so don't make too many of the real 2/c angry.![]()
LITS: So even upperclass had to do properly formatted notecards when leaving the barracks after 1900 or going on libo?
averx: whenever we have a formation, a 4/c will post under each of the clocks in the wing area and at 60 and30 second intervals call out information on how much time until formation, where it is, what the meals are, etc. A typical line might be as follows:
"There are now 5 minutes to go until this afternoon's meal formation! This afternoon's meal formation will be held at fair weather parade. For lunch this afternoon, the wardroom will be serving (blah blah blah)"
That's really all you need to know. Time for class.
We always cared about what was being served too. Also, at some point (forget when), you're just "spewing" info, with no pauses. You pause, and a 2/c corrects you.
