At a certain boot camp, there was a story of a drill sergeant who had a very strict and intimidating reputation. One night, during a storm, he took the trainees out for a drill. The lightning was flashing and thunder was booming. As they were running, one trainee thought he saw the drill sergeant disappear into thin air for a moment. It was so scary that the trainee thought he was seeing things due to the stress and the spooky atmosphere of the stormy night.
Yes, the 'Boot Camp' film is based on a true story. It often takes real - life experiences within the context of boot camps and portrays them on the screen.
One story is about a recruit who accidentally put his boots on the wrong feet during a morning drill. He was running all lopsided and the drill sergeant couldn't help but laugh while correcting him. It was a really funny sight as he tried to march in formation with his boots in the wrong place.
In some boot camp stories, there are times when recruits have to do physical training. There was this one time when a guy was doing push - ups and his hat fell off and landed right on the sergeant's foot. The sergeant just looked at him and couldn't help but chuckle. Another time, during a uniform inspection, a recruit had his shirt on backwards and was completely oblivious until someone pointed it out, which was really funny.
A recruit once got his uniform completely backwards. He showed up for inspection like that, not realizing until the sergeant pointed it out in front of the whole platoon. The look on his face was priceless.
One horror story could be about a boot camp in a very remote wilderness area. There were reports of under - trained staff. A camper got seriously injured during a survival drill, but the staff didn't have proper medical knowledge or equipment to handle it. It was a nightmare for the camper as they had to wait for hours until proper medical help arrived.
Well, there was a story where a trainee's hat flew off during a windy run. He chased after it like it was the most precious thing. The way he zig - zagged between the other trainees was hilarious. Another time, a group of trainees got their left and right mixed up during a drill and ended up crashing into each other. It was chaos but also really funny.
