While at Fort Sill, during basic training, we were on the North Range for rifle qualifications. We learned at this time , we were to do a road march back to the barracks, which didn't make us happy in the least. I was watching the skies, and was hoping the gathering thunderstorms would cancel it, and for a time it did. Then the clouds moved off, and the march was on again, sooo we fell in and off we went. About 3 miles into the march, the weather came back, and guess what, an F-3 tornado!, The stories about the sky turning green are absolutely true, we got beat to **** by the hail, drowned by the rain and of course 2 people lost their weapon so we couldn't leave till they were found. No one was injured, but what a miserable day.
