The Marine and Sailor students of @recontrainingcompany Basic Reconnaissance Course class 1-23 reciting The Creed and cranking out 25-5 for their short break during the “death hike” to finish off 2nd Phase (Patrol Phase). At this point in their training the students have gone days without sleep and are operating off their muscle memory on “auto pilot” as they dredge their way to extract through gas and enemy contact carrying a myriad of gear and casualties with them … Merry Christmas Ropers 😈🎄
