Here's the mission stats for the past four weeks:

Victims (Immunologically Challenged): Sparky Spunky Bo Him Me

Chicken Pox Indoctrination X X X

Pink-eye Drill X XX X

Lower GI Joe X X X

Upper GI Joey X X

Fever of the Unknown Soldier X X X

Anti-tank Snots X X

Jungle Ague X

Current Traumatic Stress Syndromette X X

The squad is still in relatively sorry shape. Two on medication and

two heading back into the action.

Each morning, after fitful sleep and late night drug drills, I find

the living room strewn with bodies and say things like, "Sorry,

soldier, that leg's gotta go."

I try to make it up to them with liberal teevee and junk food, but

they're bound to resent missing a month of outside contact. After all

this they are going to be RILLY weird and shell shook, I'm sure.
