"CADET SAMUELSON! Are you requesting a recess, so you can call your father? Please do. Then let me speak to him. It's not every day that I, a Lieutenant General, get to chat with a lower-ranking Brigadier General about how his son broke the rules regarding hazing. Little man, I helped write the book that I'm about to throw at you! I can’t incarcerate you in an Article 15 hearing. However, I am the Superintendent of this Academy and you are here as a cadet subject to my approval which may be withdrawn at any time. Keep pushing, and I may decide to turn this into an actual court marshal. You get your lawyer, but I get to toss your sorry tail in jail. Do you understand? So, do you wish a recess to call him?"
When KDNightstar showed me the two ideas she had for illustration for
Chapter 27: Good Riddance of Life Goes On I couldn't make up my mind, so, I decided to get both.
In the process, she also suggested a change in the script, even though I had already completed the chapter record.
Oh, man...I thought the change was so good I *HAD* to put it in. Fortunately, radarcub, who does the voice of Frankel, agreed. The improvement was tremendous.
