Keung looked at the gathered participants who were either milling around chatting with each other or doing warm-up exercises. They were too much casual about the whole exercise.

You lead off.” “Ensign McCaskey moved into the body of the participants "Alright, stand to!" he roared, "We're not in the playground now. You been chosen because your records show you have what it takes... you have a good mix of skillsets. In the next couple of hours, you will have to work together, look out for each other, encourage each other. Am I being heard?" "Sir!" the reply came as one voice. "What, I can't hear you!" shouted Lee as he walked among the rows and columns of the assembled group. "YES SIR! WE HEAR YOU!!" came back the replies which echoed throughout the room. (reply anyone) "Excellent. Before we get started, there are some ground rules which must be followed." His voice started to get even louder as he continued. "First of all, there are no quitters allowed here. If I find someone that quits, then they will be penalized and make the rest of the squad's training longer." His voice got even louder still. "Second of all, there are no whiners allowed either. If I catch anyone here whining, then it will be harder for that person. You got it?" (reply anyone) "Now, you are to get down on your backs!!" ordered ensign McCaskey (reply anyone). "We are going to begin with a cantering exercise. This should clear your mind and prepare you for the training ahead of you." He walked around the group. "Close your eyes and think of a good image. Put yourself in a relaxed state. Close your eyes and think of something you would like to do. Imagine you are doing it and feeling like you want to be in that place," McCaskey said, very calmly and softly. "Then at some point, I'm going to shout 'go' and then I want you all to let lose with a scream!" (Reply anyone) Keung looked at his watch. This should be interesting as he noticed all his participants beginning to relax. Then McCaskey shouted "Now, go!!" The whole room echoed with screams from the prone participants. (reply anyone) "Eyes open! Now I want ten laps and 40 push-ups. MOVE!!" McCaskey shouted again, sounding like he had meant it.

He pointed to an eight-foot wall which had been erected to the side of the gym. The first of many obstacles.
