Hey everyone, wondering if anyone else is having the same problem I am.

Off-topic: I wonder how that is going to affect TAC time and all the hazing stuff/folding shirts into squares and making little notecards that say what you suck at. Anyone from the FY19 classes have any insight on the new coursework? I assume 7 minute drills still happen from start to finish as well.
