One recruit announced he was gay in a bid to get discharged. The DI took him to the center of the squad bay, handed him a broom, and told him to show us all what queers did. He then explained that they would go to his home town, and ask his parents, friends and teachers if he really was gay. He decided he wasn't. I watched about 5 minutes of 'Boots' before I figured out what it was about. Maybe the Crotch was a kinder, gentler place by the '90s. Gotta watch those 1911s. Bo Gritz tried to kill himself with one while seated in his pickup and missed. Apropos of the above another DI explained if you wanted to kill yourself by bleeding out you didn't make a couple of little slashes across your wrist like a teenage girl; you sliced the vein down the length of your forearm.
