You know you hate your job when a bunch of maggots enter the war and a lot of them are dumb. You may think that being in the war is hard, but it's way harder than you think. Even as a drill instructor, I did not like training these people. And it all started with Private Pyle. He was a huge fatbody and he knew it. He was so ugly he could make a modern art masterpiece. He couldn't do hardly any of the obstacles I had him do. Even with Private Joker helping him, he still was a scared little maggot. That's probably why he shot me and killed himself on the last night on my island! But enough of that, I'm here to talk about Private Terra. When I first saw him, I thought he was a maggot, not good enough. But when I learned where he came from and what he could do, I was astounded. But that's not why he's good. His personality is great, and he always finds a way to survive. After Vietnam, I can't compare anything to the magical and horrible danger we put ourselves in.

I'm Gunnery Seargant Hartman, and this is my story.
