Ok... looking at my last post it looks like I'm really draggin the Charlie name through the mud...
Before someone from Charlie calls me out on this, I'd just like to say that the purpose of my post was more to assert my Alpha pride than anything else...
Also for the record, I'm certainly not trying to discount the efforts of Charlie Co./1st platoon, of which only 14 or 15 candidates survived out of what was probably 60 or so at the beginning. I'm sure being in that platoon was no joke at all.
But hey, Charlie company did only have to do 3 LRC runs during SULE II, right?
To be honest I think Alpha company was the only company all summer that had to do all 4 runs. Remember we also got the less desirable of 2 SULE Bivuac sites- the top of Radar Hill, meaning every LRC run meant a fun filled meeting with a hill called Da Nang. Ah well, I'm sure Fartlek hill wasn't fun either.
