Nobody came to inspect our vehicles! Maybe the parade square is just too easy to overlook, especially when you're not expecting the vehicles to be there in the first place. Still, things just keep cropping up. Now it seems that I may have to go for ATP in the middle of my overseas leave! Like what the hell? Just because my CSM screwed up and forgot to include me in the last one, now I have to pay for it with my Hong Kong trip. Although he says it's not confirmed, and yes, he remembers that I'm supposed to be on overseas leave, I don't think he really cares all that much. My only hope is that he got the dates wrong, since he did mention that he wasn't sure if he'd got them right. Otherwise, my parents are going to be very, very upset. (Well, at least now my dad might begin to understand why I'm so exasperated and disgusted by the military, and why I want nothing to do with it whatsoever.)
