My dad and my father in law both said they went through it to.
My son in law got in trouble for not having his battle buddy with him one morning and was told to "play dead" until he got there. Unfortunately he found that funny and smiled. He wasn't smiling much the rest of that day. lol.
My dad still has his basic training book from Fort Dix and there is a page devoted to the gas drill. Those are some interesting pictures.
