Here

I'm here! The boss was visiting.

He was suppose to arrive at 1130 on Tuesday. I was at the airfield from 1100 until 1400, no colonel. I went back to the office to call around and nobody was tracking his flights. Went back to the airfield at 1800 to learn the flight has been canceled, but, there is always a but, it may come in at 2100 or midnight, if at all.

Showed up at 2100, no incoming flights. Go to my CHU at 2145 and receive a knock on my door at 2215, the colonel needs to be picked up. I hop back into my uniform and proceed to pick them up.

Long story short, he was hungry, so we stayed up for midnight chow and I got to bed by 0030. (More tomorrow)

So happy to hear you're moving on military time (hurry up and wait) rather than anything else keeping you from checking in here. Hope he was suitably appreciative of your efforts.
