If you must.......

THe Holy Grail was the indoctrination to C Co 12th EN BN. Many other units had similar events, we just tended to be a tad sillier about it than most, which is somewhat scary, as combat engineers play with high explosives. To put it simply, and not get into the silliness that went into the actual event, the newbie went door to door in the barracks asking for a contribution to the "grail". The contribution was one shot of whatever hard liquor the person had in their room. (We had an allowance of one bottle of hard liquor and one 6 pack in our rooms) Once the victim had filled the "grail" the party began.
