It wasn't nasty but we had one chap who was very keen on reminding us how fit he was and I admit he was a lot fitter than most, but he did go on a bit.
We had to go on some excercises and as I am sure you know the packs tend to be large and heavy. When he picked up his rucksack he, as we all did bitched about how how heavy the packs were this time around. All through the day he seemed to have trouble staying ahead of the rest of us as he liked to do to show of how macho he was.
That night he had a major sense of humour failure when he realised that we had sneaked a couple of shot puts into his pack.

Yeah, our trick for the new guys was to wipe grease (or in some cases a certain bodily fluid which I will not go into details about!!) around the eye pieces of the Rapier sight. Quite funny to see them walking around with black rings around their eyes. Also, never ever leave your bush hat in a gun pit at night, as it has been known to be used for a rag/wipe off sorts (also relates to above fluid!).

I've been known to soak a uniform shirt in water, fold it into some odd shape and throw it in the freezer. Once it's found, the creases are a mother to get out!
