BRPC 1-16 is barely three weeks into the suck. Went from 80 to 55 and it's hardly begun. None of the drops have been officers or NCOs. Seems like it's the MCT/ITB volunteers who didn't understand what they were about to undertake or didn't have time to prepare.

I think the biggest problem with lat movers and officers attending brc is that they go from running the show to a place where they have to prove their worth and their rank doesn't hold much weight.

That has been a trend in this class so far by some lat-movers. It is causing unneeded friction in an already high-friction course. Some of these guys are more concerned with "squaring away" the new guys than they are about their personal performance and influence. Personally, I'd prefer rank be officially put into perspective so that those who need to tone it down do so in order to allow a closer-knit class. Some guys can put the stripes away when needed and some have a little harder time doing so.

Just out of curiosity how much are you guys swimming in BRPC?

The focus is less on swimming and more on treading and finning. Preparation should focus heavily on the treading. Just a heads up, don't expect to tread at all with you hands.
