In typical drill instructor fashion, he announced my offense: “Private Lehmann has decided he’s not tired enough to sleep. Apparently, because he’s a squad leader, he’s also taken the liberty to change the schedule for taps. So, to help this maggot get to sleep we will watch Private Lehmann perform twelve different exercises for five [...]
Here is an excerpt from my memoir “DRIVEN! Gambling, Girls, Guts & God” “He stopped, but not without first making it very clear that one word about the incident to anyone, and a rack attack would be all but guaranteed. A rack attack took place in the middle of the night and involved two cadets [...]
After reading chapter 1, I’m sure you’re asking, “What in the hell could possibly make a guy live on the edge like that? I don’t blame you, but I think chapter 2 will definitely begin to answer the question. Like chapter 1, it’s not for the faint of heart, but for a different reason. Here [...]
