For me, a “vacation” meant I was able to do the work at home my job(s)
kept me from. Not much different other than there was more cussing and
less DI shouting 😛
(Wifey always did claim the car’s paint was smoking when I had to patch
up a hand or finger 😉 )
Well, I’m sure Miral wouldn’t want Gopi sitting on it.
But, yeah, wrapping it around Gopi seems like
a comforting thing to do for Gopi,
regardless of how much holding power it has.
Oh sure, I doubt Gopi had ridden before, and while cat tails are
flexible, they aren’t prehensile, so it was a reassuring hug.
I remember the first time I took my wife on my bike, (and the last
time I tried to ride) she was doing the “iron bar” hold the entire
time. “There’s no back rest! I might fall! “Just hold onto me! URCK!”
She cracked 2 short ribs….
Wow – Panel 7 certainly took me back to my high school military
academy days.
I had learned the squad and platoon drill commands the year before.
(We ‘modified’ many of the FM 22-5 commands just a bit too much
to suit the Cadre.)
My second year I was 1st platoon guide . . .
I got to hating flanking drill movements!
I still remember my classmate Wiley Willingham’s ’58 Vett.
Got to drive that beauty around San Antonio.
😀
P4 – is that the same member of “Her Own”
who hid so many weapons on her?
The one that ‘aquired’ a rare sword?
Looks like her – at least to my eyes…
And yes, she was certainly packing 🙂
(and probably still is…)
Yep. That’s Mala.
And I’ll bet she’s carrying a few now.
Not to mention the rifle on her back.
Panel 7 – Now what’s Teresa up to, eh?
Sorry, color coding fail.
That’s the squad leaders shouting,
not Teresa.
Sorry, I meant panel 8.
I’m very sure than Mala could teach a few new things
about close-quarters fighting and melee weapon use…
Wow Gopi, that’s one bright set of glasses you got on!
Neon red they look like. I hope this meeting goes as
well as the last one.
“almost a vacation”
Well, in that a “vacation”
can be anything that is a change from normal routines.
Certainly stories those recruits can use later for free drinks :}
free drinks..
this would be a good time
to introduce “Challenge Coins.”

Love the improvised seat belt on P1-2

When were you in San Antonio, Ned? That’s where I call home.
