Scanning Situations
Right from the start, scanning and assessing situations is something soldiers are trained to do. They are always watchful and alert to anything out of the ordinary. Also, they will definitely act if needed. For that reason, don’t get surprised if your soldier partner quickly scans a family picnic at the park, a concert or even a room.
Standing At Ease
You may think that soldiers standing “at ease” don’t look like they are comfortable. However, after several years of standing in a particular way, the stance somewhat becomes comfortable, even when you get back to civilian life.
