        For those who have not dug a MG tench - it took me and 4 other cadets in the acedemy the better part of the day and all night to dig a proper 3 man trench and a section command post. We were lucky as we got a soft dry river bed to dig, and our neighbouring company found hard rocky ground (they were still digging till the exercise got over after 10 days).

        Unfortunately we became the demo platoon and had to recieve the Commadant when he came for inspection and briefing...

        Cheers!...on the rocks!!

          Lemontree Captain sir, Blademaster sir, Colonel sir, I was in the National Cadet Corps in junior college. I have done a 50 km cross country pittoo march in peak summer in Jalna. I am sure Lemontree sir and Blademaster sir would know what temperatures Jalna experiencs in summer. And what a pittoo march is.

          A pittoo march involves carrying a canvass haversack filled with sand and stones weighing 18 (women) to 25 klos (men) on your back as you are force marched by sadistic subedar saabs across the worst terrain possible.

          And we do not get fancy foot gear. We wear coarse woolen socks and ammo boots. Which have hard nailed soles and iron toes compared to the softer and more luxurious DMS boots our army wears.

          Yes I have not fought in battle, but I am a vilage boy who has most of his childhood grown up on a farm helping his father and brothers and cycling 8 kilometers to school on kaccha roads daily. If you can carry a sack of grain or fertilizer on your back, a 25 kilo pittoo is a luxury.

                  Sir that is the term people here relate to. We used to call it cross country. 2010-11.

                  The 24 hour do till you drop punisgment on the other hand is pittu parade, with hands overhead, sometimes holding three-not-threes depending on subedar saab's inclination.

                    Lets not start shooting off the cuff. Cross country is 10 km.

                    The 24 hour do till you drop punisgment on the other hand is pittu parade, with hands overhead, sometimes holding three-not-threes depending on subedar saab's inclination.
                    :pari:...please dont do this.
