Thief
I did a count up of all the crap i have from cadets. Most of it they dont know i have... dumbarses.
Black boots
Pooh boots
Hootchie x2 (green tarp thinggo :) )
Bush hat (cam)
Slouch hat (brown one im always carrying)
Pugaree (khaki coloured band that goes around the hat)
Badges x2 (1 big 1 small)
Japara (rain coat)
Socks
Hexi Stove x2 (little aluminium cooker thing)
Dixies (little pot/pan things)
Battle Vest
Black Belt
Bronze buckles x2
Bronze buckle stoppers x2
Cam pants x3
Cam shirts x3
Polyester Shirt
Polyester rank
Lanyard (blue bit o rope that goes around yer arm and in yer pocket)
Polyester pants
Belt Sliders (bronze U shaped clips that stop yer belt riding up to your tits when you sit down.
Pack x2 (big mofo pack)
Day Pack (backpack youve seen me wear)
Bedroll x2
Officer bag (big green bag)
Webbing
Comforter belt
Belt
Minimi pouches x2 (Biggish pouches to hold minimi ammo)
Steyr pouches x2 (Smaller pouches for steyr ammo)
Water Bottles x2
Water bottle covers x2
H Harness x2
Thats all i have on permanent loan, i say loan cause theyll get it all back when i quit, till then its mine. Cept for 1 bedroll and 1 pack. Which will be going back in 3 weeks when i go to cadets next.
Only things i should have.
cam pants x2
cam shirts x2
boots x1 pair
bush hat
slouch hat
The rest is meant to be issued on a 'you get it when u need it' basis. Kinda like communism, you only get what you need.
Started Tafe the other day, the police course, today is the first aid course. The police one was ok.. we just learnt the steps in getting to the police academy, theres like 11 dam steps, its gonna be quiet hard, getting into the army would be easier. The fitness part of the enrollment is dang easy, all ye gotta do is run 900m and get over or thru a number of obstacles. Due to supposed 'racial and sexual discrimination' the wooden wall has been removed, it was the average height of a fence, like that you have in yer backyard, so about 160-180cm, apparently it was removed because Asian races and females couldnt get over it, because of their smaller frames.
First aid course should be fun-ish, as long as they dont make us do scenarios, i hate them ,they place someone on the floor and you have to rush in and check all this shit and act like its real, cmon, unless theres actual blood its just not real. Just saying 'He has a Sucking chest wound, and she has a complicated leg fracture, just doesnt cut it, i wanna hear the sucking sounds and watch the blood flick all over the room when the dude breathes out, and i wanna see bone sticking out of that womans leg, Maybe even some arterial bleeding too, just to add some fun.
Anyway, thats my dollars worth.
