EVERY time I see a water drinking fountain I MUST stop and get a drink from it thirsty or not!
When I was in basic, the first day off the "cattle cars" the drill sergeants made us all get on our hands and knees in the blistering hot sun in Fort Polk Louisiana and pick up trash and cigarette butts that I now swear had to have been planted there. We had our duffel bags strapped to our backs while we performed this detail.
The drill Sergeant then filed us all inside the barracks to give us a speech in front of a Halsey~Taylor drinking fountain.
"Are you ladies hot!?"
"YES DRILL SERGEANT!"
"Would you dirt balls like a drink from my beautiful water fountain!?"
YES DRILL SERGEANT!",we would all yell in unison.
He then said, "Yeah, I bet you would!". Then he leaned down and took a long refreshing drink from the fountain as we looked with lust with parched lips.
He turned around to look at us, while water ran down his chin and took another long drink.
He finally allowed us to take drinks one at a time while another DI would pull us away from the fountain.
I tell my wife and family that I am psychologically impacted from my basic traing experience.
I now rarely allow myself to pass up a drinking fountain...as a matter of fact, I am getting thirsty now thinking about it. Excuse me, while I go get a drink of refreshing cool water.
