Funny range stories

So I'm going to update this as I remember more of them, but here are a couple funny things that happened our last night at the range:

-One of my roommates, who admits himself that he "doesn't think before he speaks" (and thus gets a lot of shit from us), decided that he didn't want to take the time to get out his sleeping system when we were sleeping out at the range. The midnight firewatch found him in full Goretex, sitting on his pack shivering and proceeded to wake up others so noone missed the sight.

-There was a minor panic when the 4-5am firewatch couldn't get their counts right and kept thinking that someone was missing. After recounting the entire platoon (sleeping) several times, they finally realized that two of the LTs had rolled next to each other and were "inadvertently" spooning. They had been counting them as one person the entire time...

more will follow...
