Fix Bayonets

week three, same day different shit.


Today is Monday, the day is sunny. With their helmets and their web gear on and having a m16a4 assault rifle sling on their back, the recruits of platoon 2142 are taken to the field to start their new training. Today they are going to learn about fighting with using their bayonets.

"Gentlemen, welcome to bayonet assault course 101." The instructor said while holding a m16a4 assault rifle. "Today I'm going to teach you how to kill with using a bayonet. "Some of you might ask, 'but sir, we are in modern times, why would we still fight with a bayonet.' "Good question,on a battlefield, a marine most trusted weapon on his hand is his rifle. But what if his weapon jammed or ran out of ammo?"

"Sir, he grab another weapon from the ground!" A recruit answered.

"Good answer, but what if there's no extra weapons for you to pick up?" He said making the recruit quiet. "That is when the bayonet comes to do its job. With a bayonet, there's a chance that you might still able to fight instead of sitting there waiting to get shot by the enemy." The instructor takes out a bayonet from his knife sheath and shows it to the recruits.

"This is a KBAR knife, the standard issue knife use by the Marine Corp from 1943 onwards. It's a fighting/utility knife and it can double as a bayonet." The instructor explained. "Now can you please take out your bayonets and raise it up for me to see. He instructed.

"YES SIR!" the recruits takes out their bayonets from the knife sheath and raises their hands, showing their bayonet to the instructor.

"Now if you want to arm the bayonet on your rifle, what you need to do is, you see the small loop hole on the knife handle?"

"YES SIR!"

"Good now what you need to do is insert the loop hole onto the barrel of you rifle, but insert it side ways. Because what I'm going to do next is, I'm going to turn the bayonet, securing it in place." He explained while arming the bayonet. "Now arm the bayonet onto your rifle just like what I did.

"AYE SIR!!!"

The recruits armed their bayonets onto their rifle just like the instructors instructed them to. In just a few seconds, the recruits armed their bayonets and showed it to their instructors as they wait for further orders.

"Very well, now I'm going to show you how to fight with a bayonet. First you must stand with both of your legs open wide but it must not be that wide." The instructor explained. "Because if you stand with your legs too wide, you might fall over because of losing your balance. Understand?!"

"YES SIR!"

"Next, right hand on the grip but keep the finger off the trigger. And your left hand on the hand guard." He explained. "Now whenever you attack an enemy, hold your weapon with both of your hands tightly and thrust it!" The instructor continued as he thrusted his rifle. "Later what you do is retract both of your arms after you finishing attacking an enemy." He said as he retracts both of his arms.

"YES SIR!"

"Now stand up and show me what you have learned!" The instructor said making the recruits stand up.

"AYE SIR!" the recruits said as they stand up and take their rifles that are on the ground.

Now standing and with their rifles on griped tightly with both of their hands, the recruits are now waiting for their instructors command. Suddenly a voice shouts out.

"HIGH PORT!!!"

The recruits raises their rifles and waited for the next command. A whistle is blower signaling them for their next move.

"KILL!" The recruits extend both of their arms, thrusting their rifles.

The second whistle comes in.

"STRIKE!" The recruits said as they lift up and bend both of their arms simulating a rifle bash.

The third whistle comes in.

"SLASH!" The recruits move both of their arms down with their rifle on their hands.

As the last whistle comes in, the recruits move back to their original positions. This repeated for a few moments before the instructor stops it. The instructor stands on the stage and says "outstanding, out-fucking-standing, OORAH! Now this is how a marine kills his enemy."

"AYE SIR!" The recruits said.

"Now let's see how you put all my training skills into these course." The instructor said. The recruits followed their instructor's to a obstacle course which they will once aging put their skills to the test.

"Let's see how you people tackle this!"
