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

If you wanna indulge your mean streak, limit the water bottles and calorie intake and see how he can pull it off on two days of forced march.Originally posted by Officer of Engineers View PostYou want to be sadistic about this?

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.Last edited by doppelganger; 18 Apr 13,, 06:43.

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.

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.
