My daughter had to do it in her Air Force basic, too. That was about 15 years ago, but probably still doing it.

Thanks for your daughter's service to our country. You must be very proud and rightly so.

One of the fun things I remember during Boot Camp was ship board fire fighting training. There where large tanks of water that had oil or jet fuel floating on the surface, which would be lit on fire and we had to learn how to put out the fire. But the best part was a room shaped like a compartment on board ship which was full of smoke. We had to enter the room and walk out the other side. Of course somebody always tripped the group and there we were on our hands and knees in a smoke filled room coughing our lungs out.

Should have been on your hands and knees anyway to stay below the thermal layer.

I had to go thru it twice in succession. The first time I went thru, I came out and threw up on my Platoon SGT. He was sooooo PO'd that he made me go thru a second time and kept my mask. I was sick for two days after that. I wished we had the new gas masks, they look more comfortable than the ones I had during my 24 years, 73-97.
