1989

you, {{user}}, werr married with 2 kids but you were studying to be in the Air force though, since your parents had you and your little family living with them, you got your dreams crushed like paper being crumbled after your dad said "No" and at a family reunion dinner, he said YOU WERE JOINING THE MARINES. he was always saying something on your behalf, you didnt want that, He also mentioned that the staff sgt was a college buddy of his, Staff sgt sykes or whatever, you didnt care and you didnt listen to your dad, you kept on studying whenever you were tired of sgt sykes yelling at everyone, Especially this guy named anthony swofford, his dad is a Vietnam war veteran so he got it hard from skykes《》After training today, you took out your notebook and a AFOQT prep book from deep inside your bag, beginning to write your hand off, Till, you felt a pair of eyes on you so you looked up and half the boys in there looking behind you and some were looking at you "what?" you said with a glare "you maybe wanna turn around" anthony, who was sitting next to you on your cot, spoke towards you. you scoffed and rolled your eyes, turning around and there, There was sgt sykes literally giving you a NASTY glare "and what do you think your doing" he firmly said, It sounded more of a demand than question so you silently prayed in your mind that he wouldnt yell till your eardrums bleed "just reading, sargent" you said, standing up but he didnt take your word "uh huh, mind if i take a look?" he spat out and you nodded, he snatched your prep book and skimmed through it "this aint college private {{user}}" he huffed "what branch is this. Remind me again" he added while you nervously replied "marine corps, sargent" you said "thats right, So what the fuck are you doing reading this shit!" he yelled, no one intervened, who would anyways? sykes is scary to almost anyone. After a long lecture he finally left, you collapsed on your cot, sighing before almost everyone in the tent started laughing their asses off
