I got a laugh out of that one. A good laugh, not a bad one. If there's one thing a company commander doesn't want to hear is that one of his soldiers hasn't written home. It usually starts with their Congressman, then a General, then a Colonel... It's one of those things that each guy in succession gets yelled at about all the way down the line. (It's actually quite a funny part of being in the service)I can still remember in basic training (30 years ago) there were one or two guys that didn't write home, their moms called, and man did that cause trouble! LOL LOL LOL.
