Sorry for the absence on the board but we are officially moving off the base next Friday and for the past three weeks it has been one thing after another.
I get a new SGM who decided that because he is prior infantry, that my little unit is a front line unit which it is not. So after the 4th IG complaint I had to sit him down and have a talk. He is a whopping 5 years older than me and forgets that an O-5 outranks an E-9. So after the second time of having to lock him up in the position of attention I had him reassigned.
So just after that stops, the entire base gets hit with a nice pneumonia and bronchitis mixture that took me out for a week. Did I mention I have to move next week? LOL.
Yesterday I felt good and even though it is hot as heck here. Was 103 with the heat index. I decide to take the family to Army birthday celebration on base. They have rides and games and so on. When I get a nice, moron deciding that his daughter is too precious to wait in the line and wanted to jump in front of my daughter. After explaining this to him he became enraged and shoved me with both hands. I felt so bad as I had him on the ground with his own arm wrapped around his own neck choking him almost until he passed out. Luckily there were witnesses and it was nice to have his base privileges revoked. Some people's thought process is mind boggling considering he is all but 5'5" tall and about 100 pounds.
So I am now enjoying a moment of tranquility now that I was able to get all of that out. I guess moving has put me on edge lately. Rant over. LOL.
