How to Make Your Bed Quickly ;-)

still continuing from the same January 22, 2011 writings

  When we go anywhere outside of the unit, other than at chow time, our bunks must be made and all blankets folded and tucked under the mattress.  I personally keep things easy by keeping mine made military style aside from using my second blanket to cover with while sleeping.  It makes for a quickly made bed when I need to.  I just flatten out the wrinkles in my bed, fold my blanket and put it on the front on my bed.

  So after standing count I fold my blanket and look over my cell to make sure it looks neat enough.  Then the C.O. yells, "Seven! Be sure your bunks are made, your shirts are tucked in and you're wearing you I.D.'s! Step out for Rec and close the doors behind you!"

  1. I personally found this interesting and a bit funny at the same time...

    I had the same method of making my "bed" a handful of years ago (maybe a large handful by now?? shush)when I was in military bootcamp.. though then I had a drill sergeant yelling down our neck, half asleep because it was 4 am and my body wasn't rising like any tide. Luckily I was in Fort Leonard Wood, MO in the middle of the summer. That single blanket was enough.
