Jack's decided to take you on another little trip. This will take you to probably the worst DFAC on a FOB this size in either Iraq or Afghanistan. Sure, we get eggs almost every morning, but everything else seems to be a crap-shoot with the supplier.
One morning we won't have any milk, but plenty of cereal. The next morning, we have plenty of oatmeal but no brown sugar or even syrup. Then there's this morning. They were out of sausage, biscuits, gravy, chipped beef, all juices and milk (we had cereal though), waffles, pancakes, syrup, french toast sticks, and lord only knows what else. I got so frustrated that I walked straight , out the back exit and returned to my room. Jack keeps a secret breakfast stash for when he's just too lazy to walk that far--thank goodness for that!
Oh, by the way, that's not Jack waving to you (Jack's too stealthy for that). You know how in Star Trek Captain Kirk always has the dude in the red shirt beam down to the planet with him. Yeah, and you know how that guy is always the one to get whacked by the alien. That's kind of the role this guy plays for Jack. So far Jack's been lucky and hasn't had to push Aaron (guy waving) in front of any bad guys to save his own life, but Jack's always prepared! ---Jack out!
