Hopefuly, I don't repeat to many of the previous answers. I just quickly skimmed through the thread.

I'm a guy, so maybe my view is bias.

I'd definitely take the gas chamber over OC myself. Not sure how the ASF course differs from the normal MA course, but it definitely wasn't fun to go through. I think the worse part was the can was...

Huh, wonder when they took out the payphones. I remember using them for my call home back in July 2011.

By the way, for the cellphones only on Sunday I think that's Army and possibly Air Force.
