Chopper! If you are around...did you get the newsletter?
Doesn't look like a Big Deal to me!
I thought the same thing! It says to keep an ey out for next week's news letter too, though, they'll be adding to it....I sure hope so!! I have a feeling it will still be pretty big
Big Deal? News Letter? I'm so out of the loop... I've never gotten a news letter. I need to go search my settings, now.
So... what's the "Big Deal?"

The Story Continues………………………………………….The Cohorts
Every once in a while some idiot General at the Pentagon as a terrible idea. This one must have been interested in Roman History. When the Romans concurred a new country, they would create Cohorts. The Cohorts were made up of local men from the country that had just been taken over. The Romans believed they would fight better if they were in a group of men that they knew each other and were raised together.
With that idea in mind the Army created Cohorts. 10 of these units were at Fort Ord.
All of the men (no women) were recruited in the sane geographical area. All went through basic training and Infantry school together. Then as units they were assigned to Fort Ord. That is when we met them.
To understand our job in OE a bit better, here is how it worked. The Commander of the Unit was the only person that could ask for our help. In other words the Commander of a Division could not order one of his Company Commanders to call OE for help
They had to do it themselves. To make a long story short, every Commander of a Cohort unit called us. Once we did one, we knew before we went to another one what it was going to be like.
They all had the same problems and it was impossible to help them, because of their structure.
A typical Cohort had a Captain as a commander, Two Lieutenants as Platoon Leaders.
Two E-7s as Platoon Sergeants. 8 Buck Sergeants (E-5s) as Squad Leaders and 8 Corporals (E-4s) as assistant Squad Leaders. The two platoon Sergeants were imported from other units. All the rest of the enlisted in the Company were promoted from within.
There in was the problem. All the positions were taken. No one could be promoted.
Only if someone was killed or wounded could anyone be promoted. How would you like to be working somewhere that you could never be promoted?
I don’t know how many letters our office sent to the Pentagon asking for something to be done. No answers.
Here is the real kicker too. The Officers would be rotated to other units and could be promoted. They had freedom. Before I left Fort Ord all Cohorts were sent overseas.
I have no idea what happened to them. Very frustrating.
To Be Continued………………………….........………………..OMM looks for love.

Yes I did...the idiot !
For those who don't know what we are talking about, one of our local Policemen was busted for selling weed. He had a MMJ card. How he got it and stayed a cop is a very good question. He had a separate house to grow in. They found a pound in his car.
It's going to be an interesting case for sure.

The problem I have is the cops don't want to admit they are human like everyone else. They suffer from greed and evil doings as well, as much as you or I any way. I am sick of this primadonna hero crap!!!
You can earn my respect, but you won't get far demanding it...
or as we said in the military, "I must respect the rank, but I don't have to respect the man"

Brother! Jo was married to a bad cop for 17 years. A real ass of a man. He actually held a gun to his son's head. He screwed his daughter and she's still screwed up about it. The stories that Jo has told are scary as hell. He was fired over and over from many police departments. She finally hid enough money away to finally get away from him. It took years for her to trust any man.
I met him once...he was a little fart in a leisure suit. I almost laughed in his face.
Later he remarried and decided to build a basement in his new house for his new wife. He dug the hole and the house fell on him,

No Problem OMM!
Now here is a question for you... Do you count days of flower from 12/12 cycle or via the plant itself? I know a lot do it either way, but I was just courious as to your take on it.

Just me....but I count the day I flip the switch as day one of flower. Tell the truth it's easier for me that way. Truthfully, that's probably why my girls take a bit longer to finish. Doesn't matter, I go by how much amber is present at the end.
