Last day!
13 years ago
My contract with the Army is pretty much winding down now. Today I worked my last shift as a traffic investigator, which is what I've done for 3 of the 5 years of my time in the military. I'm definitely excited to be at the end of my time here, but part of me was kinda sad to be done with it. Its a job I've worked for quite a while and apparently was pretty okay at. After thanksgiving I'll be assigned to a line platoon where I'll probably fill in as a normal patrol while I go through out-processing the Army; at which point I'll be at about my last 30 days. There's a lot of stupid shit coming up which makes me glad to be leaving when I am. The MP corps seems to be saturated with leadership that made all their rank in combat but doesn't know shit about law enforcement, the station I work for here is being scrutinized for unfounded allegations of excessive force, and we're having arbitrary new rules put in place which make looking pretty and saluting officers more important than effective police work. Overall I'm extremely dissatisfied with the law enforcement apparatus of the military, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to miss my old office I suppose. Just a random update on stuffs because I'm bored. =]

I say join an ANG unit, because the army guard deploys more than regular army does, and when they go, it is for 1.5 years, where the ANG is normally 45 days.
You should make your thoughts known to your superiors and their superiors.
The higher ups must know about what is happening in their command.
Also, still not seeing the part about this being some kinda black-ops hit squad. lol
*grins*
No offence intended, your journal is an interesting read!
