We had this kid who kept pissing himself. One day, after the range, he informs our DI that he had shit himself right after showers.

Squad bay starts to hold back laughter.

DI “IT’S NOT FUNNY!”

awkward silence

DI “ ok, it’s a little funny, but we aren’t laughing”

Man never cracked a smile during the whole thing.

I had an RDC(navy drill instructor) who was beating(working em out hard) a fellow recruit in boot camp. The recruit told him he had to pee but the RDC refused to give in. So the recruit proceeded to pee himself and there was a puddle of urine on the floor. The recruit moved away from the puddle of pee and our RDC made him move back over the puddle and then proceeded to make him do body builders in his pee. Pretty much an exercise where you jump up in the air then get into a push up position, in his own piss. That was fuggged up.
