I'll be completely honest about the capping ceremony. I am a guy...I cried, enough where when my 3rd RDC shook my hand and gave me the ball cap, I couldn't say thank you petty officer. Wasn't bawling, but was chocked up and had some streamers flown down my face. It's a very emotional experience. Been working so hard to get there and get beat everyday. And then you are up at that point over 30 hours. After all night activities, some physical some emotional...you finally end it all with this.
