So-Ra-No-Wo-To Episode 5 – Damn kids, when I was in the army…
Author: NovaJinx

Not like I’ve been feeling like picking up episodic blogging but SoraWoto’s fifth episode managed to bring up some not so nice memories of my time of service in the Finnish Defense Forces. Now I sorta know the feeling all the Finnish fathers have when they tell their sons how it was so much tougher back in their day and that conscripts these days are weak and stupid. In fact I claim that whoever hasn’t been through the luxury of military service doesn’t really get much out of this episode.



So you were hoping for Kureha x Rio pairing? Hahaha. AHAHAHAHAHA.
AHAAAAHAHHAHAHHAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAA
Ahem, moving on.


If you thought this was silly, you haven’t seen 200 guys running around the woods shouting “SHOT, SHOT, SHOT, BURRRRRSSST!“.




Damnit girls! Every self-respecting GI knows that the easiest way to lift a heavy backpack is to grab its straps from behind and throw the whole thing over your head so that it lands on your back. I am disappoint. Oh well, these girls are armored crew anyway, I suppose you can’t expect much of that bunch. Only artillerymen and logisticsfags are lazier and MPs stupider. Nothing like us mechanized infantry jaegers. The spearhead and the backbone of the army. Har har.



Come on, that’s supposed to be hard? Look at the terrain, I could walk around carrying the rest of the squad on my shoulders in there. Besides, at least you’re allowed to carry the rifle on top of the pack instead of having it hanging around from your neck.


The closest thing we got to this was an endlessly seeming marshland full of blooming northern Labrador tea which gave most guys a horrible headache thanks to its strong smell. I think the plant’s poisonous nature had something to do it as well.






I think hearing Kanata go uhuhuhuhu~ is pretty clear sign of girls reaching the breaking point. I remember this very well from our branch-of-arms-march, at one point people just started going nuts. But we kept on going, after all they promised us an extra day off if we did good and a day off was a matter of life and death back in the service.
By the way, we didn’t get it thanks to some faggots from the AT section complaining that the grading wasn’t fair. Those fucks.

Man I feel jealous, we were never allowed to swim or even let our sore feet cool in any possible body of water we’d encounter. By the way, I think you girls forgot something pretty important…


*Tactical facepalm*

Damnit, the only thing we got after our branch-of-arms-march was a quick shower before the weapon condition inspection. Guys with broken blisters were screaming like mad. Hell, onsen would be the shit in the army.

More like cannon fodder, am I rite.
…you got to shower BEFORE the weapon condition inspection???
@niidel
Only if we were quick enough. They were being lax with that since we didn’t actually use the guns during that march.
Nice to know that the Singapore Army and the FDF share the common tradition of the universal blank “BANG, BANG, BANG, IA(stoppage)!!!” *facepalm*
Nah, the softest bunch are the zoomies in the Air Force, I don’t include the air field infantry as they have a pretty hard life compared to the others.
At least the Finnish grandpas have a point ‘cos they were fighting both Nazis and the Reds…
