One of the things you learn in the army is that nothing is guaranteed. Unfortunately...by accepting some things as a true, unweilding fact, that closes possiblities. Case in point? My current posting...the damn padang guard.

Sure, NDP is only like 2 more months away? Preperations are in full swing, the major players have all been set...and my guard duty schedule has been drawn out and cast in stone. Apparently not. Being so close to ORD, i forgot one truth. If the army is good at only one thing? That's to fuck up your life. On a grand scale, or through the nitty gritty, it doesn't matter. The army is fabulous at it. Oh, and the commanders can't plan for nuts. Well...this guard duty thing is settleing into a very nice rythm, but someone has to just come and shake things up a little. 3units for this guard, and arty just has to mis-manage and make it out problem. Fuckers. Its your own problem...why make it mine? Think your's is xiong? Then what about all the shit we took? And no, we couldn't pass some of it to other units too. Bloody arseholes. Damn nice of you to fuck things up for us. I sincerely hope you don't get you way.
