Training

"Right because we cannot train using a plain, we're going to practise bailing with this truck. Any questions?"

There was a resounding silence.

"Well, you're all marked down for that, always ask why you are doing anything!" Y/N said as the troops all looked at one another.

"Why?" Basings asked.

"Good man. Because, if you ask why you are doing something, then, when things inevitably get fucked up, because they always do, then you will know what you were trying to achieve, and how best to achieve what you had set out to do in the first place." Y/N said bluntly. "We'll be practicing an parachute jump, because, that is how we're going to get in behind enemy lines."

Everyone load up into the truck, Y/N banged on the side of the truck and waited until they were up to a good speed.

"Basings, you go!" Y/N ordered.

"You what?" Y/N just used his foot to shove Basings out of the jeep, he fell and landed on his back.

"Fucking roll. Pathetic!" Y/N bellowed. "Penningsly, you next, go!"

Alfred jumped out and rolled.

"Fucking spectacular. Carthings, you next!"

"Sir, yes, sir!" Carthings said as he jumped, making sure to tuck and roll before standing up and beginning to march back to the rendezvous point.

"Greengrass, you next." Y/N ordered as Greengrass faltered, so Y/N gave him help by booting him out of the truck, the boy landed with a thud in the mud. "Fucking hell. Tuck and roll! Montague, you next." 

Montague walked up and jumped, tucking and rolling before heading to the rendezvous.

"Good work! Jones!"

Jones walked up and jumped, rolling and keeping his momentum going as he began jogging back to the rendezvous.

"Fucking brilliant! Donaldson, go!"

Donaldson jumped and rolled before getting up and continuing to run back to the rendezvous.

As Y/N was teaching the rest of the regiment how to bail, Jones moved onto the next drill, setting up a camp.

"All right chaps, I want a camp set up with fortifiable positions get to it. You've got thirty minutes."

The group set about building a camp as more soldiers arrived and began assisting in building the camp. After everything was set up Y/N arrived, jogging back from his jump.

"Greengrass, Basings, you two need to learn to tuck and roll." Y/N said as he began setting up camp.

That night the regiment went on a march in the surrounding hills, learning to navigate by the stars, learning map reading techniques, hunting and gathering food. Any survival techniques, they learned.

"We'll be on our own, no relief weapons or supplies are coming for us, you need to be able to survive on minimal supplies, which is why...today, you're all going to go through the march each only with an inch of water. I have proven this can be done. Well, what are you waiting for?! Get marching men!" Y/N said as they began their march through the hills.

When they returned to the training camp, exhausted and thirsty, the regiment set about getting some sleep while Y/N returned to his tent to find a soldier waiting for you.

"Telegram for you Captain." The soldier said as he handed Y/N the telegram, saluted and left.

Y/N opened the telegram.

Promotion confirmed by GHQ and by Prime Minister Churchill, regiment insignia and captains pips enclosed.

Y/N looked in the envelope and saw his pips and captains rank insignia, along with the badge for his new regiment.

"Ho, ho, ho. Hitler, watch out for us., we're on our way." Y/N muttered to himself as he entered his tent and sewed the insignias onto his uniform and put his pips on his uniform.

The following night, the regiment suck into the nearby munitions depot and stole the supplies they would need, including weapons for all of them, some basic food rations, ammo, and some supplies to establish a camp, they were now ready to go...
