Do Marines really not need sleep during combat training or in general? If this is true, how and why is this possible?

I went through in winter got 7 hrs sleep and 2.5 MREs.

Dry coffee packs helped we ate them strait out of the pack.

One of the most important things you learn in the Corps is know when to take a break and when a break is offered you take it. This includes eating shitting hygiene and sleeping. A Marine can not be effective if they do not take care of their body or abuse themselves. If your are falling apart in a fire fight how are you supposed to assist your buddies they depend on you. The mission depends on you that’s why marines have a traditional warriors breakfast of steak and eggs. Cant fight if you are out of gas nerveless complete a mission. If you have a 30 mi window to sleep you sleep for 30 min if you have a window to eat you eat ECT. Your body as a marine is a piece of equipment if you don’t maintain it it will break on you; sure they train you how to deal with fatigue filth and hunger but ultimately that is just discipline training to help get you to your next real rest up fuel up and clean up. Marines are human beings and require all the same things all humans need.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.
