At no time did I ever smile when getting "corrective action" in basic

I never did either, but during my smoke sessions I've noticed that now, there is a strange satisfaction behind pushups.. It's weird lol.

Those silly sit-ups, Specialist Fleming. I told my Drill Sergeant that I couldn't do them anymore. She responded with: "Well, Frenchie can do them." So I ultimately received a first Go; on everything in Basic. I came out first around the PT track! SPC (Join to see)

Pull ups. Push ups, sit ups 2 mile run easy. I maxed 29 out of 30 tests. The one I did not was a 290. I had the flu.

There was no corrective action at OCS that made me “smile on the inside”, SPC (Join to see). Much of the stuff that happened to us then (graduated 16JUN73) would get drill sergeants and tactical officers court-martialed nowadays.
