Well i finally made it into the army and arrive at Kapooka for basic training. Recruit training is to go on for about 12 weeks. When we arrived its all go, yelling & shouting do this and do that so funny when I look back on it. But even then I enjoyed that atmosphere. Over the next 12 weeks we where to learn lots. Marching, Drill, weapons drill, first aid, navigation, field skills and much much more. Again I meet a lot of great blokes and become great mates with them. We form a very strong bond, especially with my section. For me the 12 weeks goes by very quickly. During the course of our training we get to pick what corps we want to go to. I chose Armoured corp and in particular 1st Armoured Regiment (Tank). But I wont talk to much about my time there as it really has nothing to do with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Moving on, I finnished my basic and then went to the School of Amour at Puckapunyal to begin my trade training with the Leopard tank. Again this was to take about 12 weeks. After the employment training its off to 1st Armoured Regiment and a place in the real army
