However someone, somewhere cut orders to send me to a 3 week NCO school. FINE... (lost me too)well lost my pay anyway, it ended up going to Benning ( my check did) No big deal... thank you for your service from a former (my nick) still getting used to this 18 type designation.
Oh, yeah I know I have not completed all my profile stuff yet Y'all.... I'm getting to it.
