3. Survival Test Leonard and Jose had volunteered to participate and take part in all the training exercises. The severe test of survival in the woods was one of the worst ordeals they had ever been through. Jose grimaced, his face twisted into a painful expression, as Leonard described their experience to the other soldiers. During the test, Jose tried to eat a cricket, but he spat it out right after he put it in his mouth.
