Lesson61 Life in the Army
Sam and Jack often talk about their days in the army. It was a hard life. The men had to get up early in the morning and do a lot of physical labour. They had to learn how to use a gun, and they had to march at least ten miles a day. There wasn't much entertainment; they had to do without television or radio. The only form of recreation they had was sports.
They only made about $40 a month, so they didn't have to worry about where to spend their money. Fortunately, they didn't have to pay any bills since the army paid their expenses. And they didn't have to do their own cooking; the army took care of that, too. In fact, the army took care of everything. The men never had to plan what they were going to do each day since the army did it for them.
They had very little freedom in the beginning, but after the first six weeks the situation started to improve. The men didn't have to stay at the base all the time. They could go out on the weekends and see their girlfriends — something Sam and Jack did as often as possible. Jack didn't like being in the army since he didn't like taking orders. But Sam never complained. He thought being in the army was a good experience, and that every man should serve his country.
