This is an interesting screenplay behind broadcast news. There is a similar scenario in the center of the story. The hero sheds tears among the other two characters.

There are rows and corporate grade billets. There are squad leaders, platoon leaders, platoon leaders, platoon leaders in the row. In the case of a company, there is a company's firearm sergeant, the company's first sergeant, corporate executive officer and corporate commander. Normally you get at least one 'bullish' (higher than the team leader) and you will be one or two team leaders. During these billets, you will be evaluated by the OCS staff. Your queue is judged by your platoon leader (sergeant, platoon leader, platoon leader), and the company's billet will be scored by the corresponding staff (ie, if you are a candidate for XO, the real company XO will show you your performance I will evaluate). Billets usually last three days, and when you shine they are definitely there. Even if you do not know what you are doing, when you are in the billet you need to own it and finish the job as much as possible.
