Case Study #2: The Loyal Wife

[tova]

*sigh* I just read through 24 pages, having just discovered this thread. I was thinking, "alright...I'm cool, I can just come in and read it all at once and not have the anticipation of waiting to read the end...."


WTF?!?! 24 pages in ONE sitting and I STILL am left hanging!!!:uhh:


I'm going to bed....maybe there will be an ending tomorrow.

Not likely ;)

Not likely ;)

This is about as aggrivating as having to wait all summer to see who shot JR!!!! >:{

I think it's kinda cool actually - sort of how the old Sherlock Holmes stories were first published - a bit at a time....:)

I voted for flogging, and would like to do the honors.

I'll be back in country August '08.

Edit to add:

Damn, forgot about my Av-A-Tar. Just for the record, Sir, I didn't mean flog you in a sexual manner. Please finish the danged story already! I've got some more Harry Potter books I need to get to. :)

 

[Marauder06]

Roger that, Sir - not clear in the post.

Yeah, I should have specified.

 

[Mav]

I feel like I'm in a never-ending "Choose Your Own Adventure" Book :S

 

[x SF med]

Yeah, I should have specified.

Bill the Cat never specifies. Why should you?

 

[cb88]

And still we wait.

SIGH



(for those of you men that aren't familiar wit it, that is one of those loud overly exaggerated just to make sure you heard it sighs. :cool:

I'm sorry, did you say something? I was staring at your chest.

Did you see the image of the Mother Mary too?

Stepping into CPT Cho’s office, you know that this experience is going to be different. Just walking into this office is a figurative and literal breath of fresh air after your experience earlier in the day with Master Sergeant Elliot. The blinds are open, allowing in sunlight; the desk and office are tidy; it even smells nice. When you walk in, CPT Cho smiles and stands up to shake hands with you. He offers you his hand, and then a seat in one of the two chairs in front of his desk.

After exchanging pleasantries with CPT Cho, you get straight to the point. As quickly as you can, but with as much detail as you think he needs, you begin explaining the situation. As you talk, Cho doesn’t look pleased, but you know that’s it’s because of Schum, not because of you. About five minutes into the conversation, he stop you.

“I’m sorry to interrupt, but I think this is something that my first sergeant is going to want to hear. He’s on leave, but he lives on post and can be here pretty quickly.” Cho picks up the phone. When he hangs up, he has a smile on his face.

“Turns out, my first sergeant was already here on post, supervising extra duty for some of our problem children. Want to take a guess who one of them is?”

It’s not long before Cho’s first sergeant shows up. Just like Cho, you like First Sergeant Jones immediately. He’s tall, looks fit, and has a great personality. He talks very loudly, a trait you suspect is a result of hearing loss from working for so long in Aviation.

“This is about your favorite Soldier,” Cho begins.

“Schum?” Jones inquires. The way he says “Schum” makes it sound like “scum.” “I have that turd outside right now edging the sidewalk with his e-tool for some stupid shit he pulled earlier this week. What did he do this time?”

You and First Sergeant take turns filling Cho and Jones in on the details of the situation with Schum. Cho and Jones ask the occasional question, but for the most part they let you and First Sergeant talk. When you finish, Jones leans back in his chair.

“I’d like to punch that little shitbag right in the throat,” he says. You can’t help but smile; that’s exactly what First Sergeant would say if the situation was reversed.

“OK sir,” says Jones, looking at Cho. “He’s got 20 minutes left on his extra duty. If you want, I can bring him in here to meet these gentlemen,” he gestures towards you and First Sergeant. Cho looks at you.

“It’s up to you.”

1) do you want to have the confrontation with Jody now?
2) what are you going to say/do when you’re finally face to face with him?

 

[Ex3]

I swear to God Mara!!! :doh:
Would you put us out of our misery already???

 

[cb88]

:uhh: I agree with Ex...LOL I feel like a crack addict being strung out! (not that I would know what that feels like...just saying)

Not having served this is a tough one for protocal, but I'm all about resolving things on the spot, so I'd probably say bring the littl f-er in. I would start by confronting him with all of the evidence and what you know and how your mind has filled in the details (CSI style....mix a little NY 'tude with Miami ominiously patient/quiet and Grisom style) and see if he cracks and fesses up. But, maybe I've been watching too much CSI. :uhh:

 

[HeloMedic1171]

I want to say yes. but unless you have all of your documents, I.E. the emails and bank statements, it's going to be more difficult to assault him in a logical, coherent manner. so if you don't have that shit with you, I'd wait. as for what to say.... "So YOU are the group, huh? and here I always thought that title belonged to my CSM."

I'd also want my top in there with me. There are things the NCO's can say/do, that an officer can't and vice versa.

Fuck it, might as well meet the motherfucker so you have a solid target ID to be able to drop a JDAM on.

This is the first time I read this thread and all I can say is THANK GOD! I am so glad I jumped on this at the end! Great story! Cant wait to read the end.

 

[pardus]

Cant wait to read the end.

Don't hold your breath! lol

I wouldn't meet him until I had all the documents/evidence with me as well as your first sgt.

Get your paperwork together, all your ducks in a row, and your evidence straight. Set up a meeting for another time, to include bringing TOP with you.

Make the little sucker sweat.
