Had to mow grass in a monsoon in Korea. I remember bitching to mthe corporal in charge of the detail. He said just play the game private.

Do you still glow in the dark,,,,,,Nah.
I'm the normal one of the group
I meant the rows not lining up.I don't know enough about medals.
Submariners don't get a lot of those.
But I do see the national defense, on the bottom.
Interesting. I never saw a cadre officer the entire time I was at jump school, except maybe at the graduation. Some colonel spoke, so I'd guess the cadre officers were there, but I don’t remember much about the graduation except that an NCO handed me my jump wings, and immediately after we were all detailed to pull grass by hand out of the gravel in front of some unoccupied building. One of the recent graduates kept us amused by repeating the colonel’s inspiring speech almost word-for-word while we pulled grass.In Jump School, the XO introduced himself as Leutenant Major McClendon. He went on to explain that his first name was Major.
I think, you have to ask others.Do you still glow in the dark,,,,,,
1986-1989: Young USAF 1/2/3-striper KellyinAvon is stationed at Moody AFB, Georgia. "Chief" is the term of address for a Chief Master Sergeant. "The Chief", was 2-striper and a Sioux from South Dakota. Super good guy and an outstanding troop.We had a Seaman Wally Chief.
If he stayed in, and got promoted enough, he'd be Chief Chief.
And yes, he was 'Native American"
Sounds like the EDO had OCD. More like CDO, which is OCD in alphabetical order.As SRO (Shutdown Reactor Operator) I had to maintain the lockout log, when the EDO (Engineering Duty Officer) wasn't present.
So, someone enters, needs to update the lockout log, and it's not there.
No biggie, people often update it at the workstation, and forget to bring it back.
I don't know who has it. So I grab the 2MC (amplified announcing system for Engineering) and say..
"Would the lockout log please cone back to Maneuvering please.".
Apparently, somebody higher up heard it, and thought I was being a smarts##.
(I know. Hard to imagine)
And the EDO went aft to "rip me a new one".
Note: my Dad did better jobs of that than MOST of my officers .
I asked what I SHOULD have said.
He told me, I should have asked the person that had it, to return it.
I DIDNT KNOW WHO HAD IT.
And work was halted, and we were under pressure to get the job done.
So, after that, whenever the log disappeared, that Officer was called, so HE could find it.
Actually the SRO would call the EDO.
The EDO would call that Officer to find it
