BEING GAMMA
PROLOGE: This is a work of fiction, describing a 'what if' world if
after the Persians sacked and destroyed Athens following the battle
of Thermopylae in 480 BC or BCE, if you prefer. The USA is not really
all that different of a place, but there are some noticeable
differences if Athens had never been rebuilt and Athenian philosophy
had never materialized. This is not a war story, rather a social
examination of a 'what if' society.
-------------------
Randi Thomas was sitting in swing seat in the playground area of the
elementary school across the street from his home in Springfield,
Illinois. His tote bag sitting on the ground next to him. He was
waiting for his best friend Toni to show up. While waiting, he idly
inspected his bare legs for any missed hairs after shaving everywhere
that morning. He and his pal Toni had graduated from Sarah Barton
High School two weeks prior. Their girlfriends were waiting for them
at Abagail's Frockery for young ladies for a fitting for their
dresses for the upcoming big party at Ardmore Country Club.
Satisfied that his legs at least, were hairless he quickly scanned
his toes to insure that they were neatly painted. He heard a car
pull into the empty parking lot next to the playground and saw Toni
in his new convertible, a graduation gift from his doting and
moderately wealthy father. Toni was dressed like him in the Southern
Illinois young ladies casual summer costume; Daisy Duke's shorts,
spaghetti strapped silk tee shirt, wedged sandals, an arm load of
bangles and assorted costume jewelry. Randi made a quick inspection
of his makeup with his compact mirror and grabbing his tote bag
strutted over to Toni's side of the convertible, leaned into it and
gave Toni as sexy a good morning kiss his eighteen years of
experience could muster.
Toni responded with as much tongue as he possessed. "You know when
you do that, my clitty really pinches in my tube," breathed Toni.
Randi replied, "Well, we could go into my house and we could take
care of that." Randi had a copy of the key to Toni's chastity
restraint in his panty drawer.
Tempted, Toni replied, "Maybe later, we going to late to meet the
girl's as it is. Jump in and let's get going."
-----------------------------------
At Abagail's, two very attractive young ladies, likewise dressed in
the appropriate summer costume were going through a catalogue, trying
to decide on their dresses.
"Those two sissies better get here soon so we can get this over
with," snapped Grace Williams, Randi's girlfriend.
"They are probably pulling each other's puds," scorned Denise
Sanders, Toni's girl.
Just then Randi and Toni sauntered into the boutique and the sissies
and girl's exchange air kisses, cheeks brushing.
"About time," exclaimed Denise with a smile.
Like all girl's, she really liked sissies, so sexy and so compliant.
The four friends poured through the catalog and fingered fabric
samples and after a couple of hours decided on their new frocks,
after all we can't have and design, fabric and color clashing's.
---------------------------------------
The country club party was actually a very important social event for
young women and Gamma's of proper age. Young men, upon high school
graduation had to immediately report for three years of military or
other public service. Alphas all went into the military, Beta males
had a choice of military or other public service, but all of them
would gone for three years minimum. The dance would be attended by
Beta's who had completed service and were either gainfully employed,
in college, tech school or re-enlisted in the military. There would
be a scattering of junior military officers, all Alphas. The Alphas
were the targets of all of the young ladies. The Gammas, escorted by
young women, were the frosting on the cake, so to speak. Gamma's
were noted for their sexual flexibility.
------------------------------------------
Six Years Previous:
Randall Thomas was just starting seventh grade. He had attended only
all male schools and Washington Middle School was no exception.
Middle school was the start of the male pecking order ritual. In
particular, there was a violent inter-school athletic contest called
'Battle Ball'. Battle Ball was a contest that was quite simple in
nature. It required no previous training, had no rules except that
clubs, knives, brass knuckles and other such contraptions were
barred. The object of the game was to move a ten foot in diameter,
rubber ball the length of a standard football field and across the
opponents goal line. Teams were simply one grade class against
another. If one class had more members than another, too bad. The
only rule was that teams couldn't engage opponents more than two
years senior or junior to each other. It was basically a brawl
between school boys. What was important, is that the whole affair
was visually recorded and reviewed by the schools instructors and
the players graded on leadership, aggressive play and
resourcefulness. In their first contest, Randall lasted three minutes
before his left shoulder was dislocated and Tony lasted thirty-five
more seconds, succumbing to a snapped fibula. It was further
determined by the attending physician's and review of game recordings
by a panel of the schools instructors that there was a very high
probability that neither Randall or Tony would live through the next
two school terms. Fatalities in this activity were common despite
the few precautions taken. Failure to participate in Battle Ball was
an automatic reassignment of the students social status to that of
Gamma. Gamma's were promptly enrolled in an all girl's school. This
not a gender reassignment, rather a social reassignment in order to
save the students life.
--------------------------------------------
In both the Thomas and Ambelli households there were tears when the
reassignment notices were delivered. Both mothers in relief and both
fathers in disappointment. A student did not have to accept
reassignment, but his chance of surviving to graduation were minimal.
Both boys were enrolled at St. Emily Junior High and compelled by
school rules to conform with all school regulations and dress codes.
Also, by accepting Gamma status, the boys were required to dress
enfemme full time. However, since they were genetic males they would
retain their right to vote upon reaching the age of majority,
something their female classmate's would not be able to do. As both
boys had older sister's, the transition into the feminine world was
somewhat eased, but not without a great deal of glee on the part of
their siblings and their friends. In both households, it was decided
that the boys would undergo ridged hormone therapy to ease their
transition. The new school advised the parents of all new Gamma' s
that beards, mustaches, excessive body hair would not be acceptable.
Also, all Gamma's must wear chastity devices while in or
participating in school event's and the parents were advised to keep
their Gamma offerings in chastity at all times outside of the home.
When the boys complained about the full time chastity, their mothers
bluntly told that tenting of panties in public was not socially
acceptable.
-------------------------------------------
Randall, now Randi once recovered sufficiently from his injury he was
escorted by his mother and gleeful sister around to the various
establishments that specializes in feminine attire and accessories.
First and most stressful was the acquisition of the chastity device.
Wearing one of his sister's skirts and panties, blouse, his own
sneakers and a touch of makeup, Randi's first stop was to a
gynecologist that handled the chastity devices. Randi also
experienced the phenomenon of 'tenting' that lessened his objections
to the process, it was disquieting, however when the doctor handed
the key to the devices lock to his mother and she promptly deposited
it into her purse. Rendered 'socially acceptable' Randi went on a
whirlwind shopping spree, acquiring all manner of unfamiliar
clothing, shoes, accessories, toiletries and finally two new ear
studs which were inserted into the also new holes in his ear lobes.
The final stop was at a place he was to become increasingly familiar
with, the beauty shop for a hair rearrangement. Back at home his
mother and sister helped in dress in a suitable outfit for a young
lady of his age as the family was dining out to display their new
Omega. Looking in the mirror for the first time Randi saw a rather
attractive young girl, wearing a short denim skirt, sleeveless blouse
to accommodate his shoulder binding and low heeled sandals. His hair
was in a page boy bob with a hairclip with a bow. Yeeck. The dinner
outing passed with ease, even with an encounter with former
schoolmates. Publicly embarrassing Gamma's was socially
impermissible and those persons that did so were fined and subjected
to public shaming by having to wear a shaming sign around their necks
and stand for two hours on the curb of a busy intersection for seven
days. Thus emotionally fortified, Randi quickly assumed his new
societal role as an Gamma, destined to be a life long transvestite.
After a few days of adjustment, Randi thoroughly enjoyed school as an
Gamma. With his slight build and somewhat feminine bone structure,
Randi became quite the hormone enhanced clothes horse. Toni, whose
injury was somewhat more severe joined Randi at St. Emily's a few
weeks later and two became very close friends. In a connivance
between their mothers, the two boys had key to their chastity
devices at each other's home where they quickly discovered mutual
masturbation. The rule, unknown to their fathers, was that they
could pull each other's pud and if they preferred, orally stimulate
each other and engage in other mild sexual activities other than
intercourse, absolutely not permitted. Toni's sister Annette,
secretly provided the boys with a small vibrating device whose
primary usage was immediately discovered. The two sailed through
female puberty, comparing their budding boobs, widening hips, mostly
accumulated fat, having their larynxes' shortened and voices
stationed in their preteen high alto. They also had their very
accomplished cock sucking lips enhanced. The world was good. Many
girlfriends aided in their sexual exploration, all noncoital, except
when their current girlfriends demonstrated the joys of strap-on
instruments when the highly lubricated devices were introduced into
their eager rectums.
BACK TO PRESENT DAY, RANDI'S NARRATIVE:
Toni and I picked up the girls for our big double date at the country
club. All of us in our new dresses and freshly minted hairdo's.
Gracie's hand went immediately under my dress and between my nylon
pantied cheeks, she had discovered that by manipulating the base of
my butt plug, items that Toni and I discovered on shopping trip that
included a stop at an adult toy store that we had frequented
previously when we were sixteen, that she could manipulate the item
to press against my prostate and produce a nice squirt of cum into my
panties. My mother discovered mine while straightening, rather
snooping in my room. She didn't stop giggling for two days. She
also told my sister about my new friend and joined in the feminine
humor fest. My father was just baffled, having not been let in on
the source of their amusement. I had to tell her stop playing with
my plug as I wearing only a thin panty liner. She relented and
leaned forward and whispered into Denise's ear. I knew what that was
about, as did Toni. We knew that a squirting contest was going to
take place later this evening. What the girl's would do is have Toni
and I on our heads on our hands and knees spread. They would then
lift our skirt hems onto our backs, pull down our panties and proceed
to play with our exposed cock heads in our chastity devices , much to
our mutual discomfort as our imprisoned members would unsuccessfully
try to inflate. Then holding our trapped penises pointing back
between our thighs, play with our butt plugs seeing who could force
the longest squirt out of our beleaguered prostates. The girls
immensely enjoyed this game.
--------------------------------------------
The party at country club was great deal of fun, dancing and illegal
drinking. We were joined at our table by two Alpha junior army
officers, very exciting. They were attending the University of
Illinois at Urbana for some of advanced mathematical courses. They
said that they were artillery officers. Toni and I were copiously
complimented when they discovered that we were Gamma's. Our dates
were thrilled, apparently, Alphas had a thing for Gamma's that had
pretty women in escort, or vice versa. The evening flew by with the
two Alphas entrancing the four of us. The item that stuck was that
the girl's and Toni and I had been accepted at Champagne- Urbana and
having two dashing Alphas at least good acquaintances could prove
very useful. After we left the party, the main event, at least as
the girl's were concerned, started.
--------------------------------------------
Gracie reached into the large tote that she had left in the car and
extracted a liter bottle of Honduran rum and we had to stop at a
convenience store for some cola, cups and ice. Finally, at our
favorite necking spot, we stopped and continued our illicit partying.
We babbled and giggled through half a liter of rum before the groping
and smooching began. Boob groping and finger fucking gave way to the
two main events. Those being the sum shoot to be followed by the
strap on injections. The girls had Toni and I out of our frocks post
haste and then they began disrobing, very seductively. Then main
difference between our clothing was that the girls didn't wear waist
nipper corsets. The four us in panties, bras, stay up hose, fuck me
pumps, ear fobs dangling and jewelry clanking proceeded with the
evenings events. The girls insisted upon some oral warm up before
they serviced Toni and I. Once sated, the girl's delved into their
totes and donned their weaponry. With panties disposed of they
fumbled their obscene intruders into position, flipping little
switches to insure that all of the little motors were in good working
order they turned and with menacing grins approached Toni and I.
"Assume the position," giggled Denise.
We rolled down our panties, unhooked our bras and the spread out
blanket, cradled our heads and elevated our asses. With our now over
heated Mistresses fully engaged in the festivities, Toni and I
quickly packed lubricant up each other's asses.
"Gracie smirked, "You two are quite experienced at that, aren't you?"
With my index and middle fingers probing Toni's asshole, I could only
smile.
-------------------------------------------
The girls knelt down, next to us and gently returned our plugs to
their proper locations. Once satisfied with their handiwork and
bouncing their faux cocks off of our stocking encased thighs as if a
promise of things to come, they reached around our corseted waists,
gently cradling our encased cocks and aiming the bare helmets through
the gap of our spread thighs, Gracie intoned, ready, set....go. With
the conclusion of the countdown, their free hands went work
manipulating the base of our plugs. The object of their contest was
not the speed of getting us to ejaculate, rather the distance of the
emission. So the girl's, being experts at this contest, slowly worked
the bulb of the plug around in our anal canal taking note of our
state of readiness by the mews and gasps we emitted as the bulbs
grazed our prostates. All great fun........ for them. When either
contestant felt that her charge was ready, then suitable pressure was
employed against the targeted organ. Once a volley was fired, it's
landing spot was marked with whatever was handy. Three volleys was
the agreed upon total to proclaim a completed contest. Denise' game
was on that night and Toni was manipulated to out ranging me two to
one. The winner, Denise had pleasure of Gracie kissing her ass.
-------------------------------------------
Once the spoils of victory were collected, Denise declared in a
righteous voice, "I'm horny."
Our butt plugs were removed and the vibrating and twisting dildo's
replaced them. The next half an hour resulted in many more, but less
intense emissions from our caged and painfully restricted ding dongs.
The one thing that Toni and I knew was that very few males in America
had as much sexual contact with young females as Omegas. Albeit,
under very controlled conditions. After the girls had orgasmed to
their contentment, they returned our plugs to their original resting
places and allowed us up and to get dressed. We finished off the rum
and cuddled for a bit, gingerly sitting around our ravaged bottoms.
We dropped the girls off at their homes with the suitable goodnight
gropes and kisses and Toni dropped me off with more gropes and
kisses. I went to bed after gratefully removing my chastity. My very
sore cock swelled up, but it was too sore to wank and I had been too
drained to care.
----------------------------------------------
The next morning mom pounced on me and in her subtlety feminine
manner, demanded to know how my date at country club went. I did the
basic, it was fun and we had a good time, all in son to mother
evasive answers. I did mention the two Army Officers, which
Impressed her, but left out the rum, squirting contest and anal
invasions. Sipping my coffee, I figured that I had satisfied her
curiosity, an error that was pointed out by her next question.
"Who won the contest?" she asked while standing at the sink with her
back to me.
I coughed and warm coffee ran out of my nose.
"Pardon me," I queried. "What contest?"
Mom, still standing with her back to me, continued, "Gracie stopped
by last week and showed me her new strap-on dildo. How does your
bottom feel this morning?"
Gagging, I replied, "A little sore, thank you."
Continuing, my mother twisted the knife, "Gracie told me that it was
bigger and had more interesting features than the older one that you
were used to."
I sat there stunned thinking, 'Is there nothing private between
women?'
Wiping her hands with a dish towel, mom sat down next to me and
smiling, "All Gracie did was keeping me apprised of her relationship
with you. She very happy to be dating an Gamma. You realize that
most of the girl's at your school engaged in a lesbian relationship
mainly because contact between teenage boys and girls is so
restricted. So Gracie just wanted to know how far she could go with
you. I told her that as long as you were in chastity, go for it.
You had as much fun as she did."
I didn't fully appreciate how closely mothers keep an eye on the
sexual activity of their offspring.
Mother very much enjoyed my embarrassment and repeated her original
question, "Who won the squirting contest?"
Thoroughly cowed, I whispered, Toni, two to one.
"Well, better luck next time," consoled Mom.
I blurted out, "You don't care about my fooling around with Gracie?"
"Oh no, I do care and I encouraged Gracie to keep me Informed. You
don't think that Mrs. Ambelli and I allowed you and Toni to have
copies of your chastity keys to kept in your bedrooms so that you
could pee while standing. We were well aware that boys locked in
chastity needed places for safely releasing their urges. I know that
you and Toni engage in regular oral sex. Don't worry, I approve. A
certain level of skill in cock sucking is a valuable tool for young
ladies and young Gammas. Now, go shower and put on something nice,
maybe one of your cotton sun dresses. Gracie's coming over and your
father is taking us all to brunch."
----------------------------------------------
When Gracie arrived for our trip to brunch, I embraced her and during
our air kiss, I whispered, "Tattletale," into her ear.
She leaned back, still in our embrace and with a very convincing look
of surprise on her face, replied, "Your Mom ratted me out?"
"Indeed she did. I may take revenge on you with your own strap-on,"
I replied.
She glanced at me coyly, coping a feel of my encased cock under the
short hem of my sun dress and whispered, "That might be fun,
girlfriend. I'll think about it."
Dad broke into our embrace and shooed us all to the family chariot.
The restaurant was busy, so there was no problem with Gracie and I
being served bloody Mary's, which surprisingly aided in alleviating
my mild hangover. Gracie spent the afternoon at our house, drinking
gin and tonics with mother and I on our patio in the backyard. Dad
was banished to watch a baseball game in the house. About an hour
later, Dad returned with Toni and his father along with Denise and
her Dad. The men stood aside while the flurry of skirts engaged in
the perfunctory air kisses. Once the ceremony was concluded and
everyone had a beverage my Dad called the impromptu meeting to order.
-------------------------------------------
"It's apparent that our young people here are all going attend U of I
this fall. Girl's, you may not be aware of this, but state law
requires that all new parents establish an 'educational account',
similar to a 401k account for all newborns. All of the Dad's here,
including yours, Gracie have been diligent in adding to those
accounts. In short, these educational accounts have done quite well
over the years. Each of you girl's have in excess of sixty thousand
dollars available for use in your academic pursuits. These monies
can be used for anything, so ladies pay attention. All of the
fathers, including Gracie's have agreed to pay your tuitions and
books providing that you four find and pay for a suitable apartment
for the four of you through your sophomore year. One more condition,
none of you can marry prior to the completion of said sophomore year.
Randy and Toni, you shall maintain your chastity as is customary, but
be free to remove the devices while in the confines of your domicile.
As for Denise and Gracie, absolutely no pregnancies. Your fathers
are aware that you four have been engaging in some sexual play for
past year. That's to be expected, but if for whatever reason, Gracie
and or Denise start dating other males, they must have either Randi
or Toni close by to act as chaperones. They don't have to be part of
the date, but they must be close enough to act as your conscience.
Those are the conditions to be adhered to for your first two years on
your own."
Denise spoke up, "Can Gracie and I chaperone Randi and Toni if they
stray?" Toni's father laughed, "Absolutely, they are very pretty
Gammas and I have no doubt that they will tempt members of either
sex."
Denise's father broke in, "We are not trying to cramp what you may
believe is your very sophisticated style. But, believe me, you
actually quite na?ve. High School romances and juvenile scoff lawing
does not prepare one for the world. In fact, all of the males that
you will encounter are going to be at least three years older than
you and those three years represents a huge social gap. Many of them
have seen and done things that you cannot conceive of, this goes for
our Gamma girl's too. So what we are preaching about is that we want
you guys to watch out for and take care of each other."
-----------------------------------------
Randi spoke up, "How soon do we need to start preparing?"
"Last week," his father replied. "You have to apply for the classes
that you need and some you may want. I know that all of you have
received the class registration forms, I've seen Randi's. Get those
as soon as possible, otherwise you could end up quite disappointed in
what's left. But, your most important task is finding a place to
live. Also, watch your money, it's not inexhaustible. So, you
girl's should start now, Randi go get a laptop and you guys can check
out what's available, where is it and is it big enough and how much
does it cost."
So started the first afternoon of our adult life.
-------------------------------------------------
The rest of that afternoon was taken up by looking up available
apartments and flats, many had photos of the interiors and most had
rental costs attached which were eye popping. So, we spent the rest
of the doing what the Dad's recommended, a unique experience. A week
later we felt organized enough to take our first road trip to Urbana.
It was eye opening, there was a plethora of twenty something males
all about the campus and environs. The real girl's were enthralled
with all of the unchastised masculinity roaming about. Toni and I
were less enthusiastic about the men, but we could see that being an
Gamma in an open society could present social problems. We were
happy that thanks to our fathers, we had a two year adjustment window
ahead of us. We had three available apartment's picked to look at.
All were more or less furnished, poorly. We settled on one about a
half a mile from campus, well within bicycle range, made the deposit
and signed the lease starting occupation one week prior to the start
of classes. We spent the rest of the afternoon snooping around the
area and having decided that we had been responsible enough for one
day, we headed home to frolic that evening at one of our favorite
bistro's and visit our necking spot for some anal and oral abuse.
The rest of the summer was spent acquiring the bits and pieces of
small furniture that we would need for our new digs. Also, more
importantly, updating our wardrobes.
------------------------------------------------
Moving day was one to remember. Denise' father rented a U-Haul
trailer that was big enough to pack everything that we had decided to
take to Urbana, or so we thought[1]. After an exhausting day of
watching our fathers move everything into our new apartment, they
went home and we got cleaned up and went out to dinner. As we had no
contacts in Urbana, our dinner was alcohol free, but our apartment
was well stocked, so we returned to the apartment, arranged a few
stray items and rearranged other's. Satisfied, we retired to our
bedrooms, girl's in one, sissies in the other and changed into our
sexiest nighties. Our first sleep over, champagne and all. The
girls did the honors of removing our chastity devices and they got
their first look ever at our naked tools. They were enthralled, hand
jobs to start, followed by strap-on's and then Gracie went into the
girls bedroom and returned with two packaged condoms. Coitus was a
marvelous event. The girls were both excited and disgusted with
their first oral encounter with the male sexual member. After about
three hours of intense and very varied sexual activity, Toni and I
fucking the girls, them fucking us, sixty nining with everyone, we
were exhausted. The bedrooms had twin beds, which after a short
conversation over breakfast it was decided that they had to go. So,
after breakfast we knocked on the building managers office door and
inquired about replacing them with two queen sized beds. Without
cracking a smile, he said 'no problem', but we would have to buy them
ourselves, to which we replied, ' No problem'. That afternoon we had
two new queen sized beds delivered along with new bedding and
pillows. With minimal snickering, the delivery men moved the twins
to the storage area in the basement and set up the new playpen.
---------------------------------------------
The next week we started classes. Silly us, we wore conventional
skirts and blouses first day. It became quickly apparent that there
wasn't a dress code here. We became quite slutty in appearance which
quickly resulted in the expansion of our social circle. We did heed
our father's advice and confined our sexual activities to within our
little household. So went our first semester, short skirts and
shorts along with clingy tops all to advertise look, but do not
touch, while keeping our increasing debauchery among ourselves. It
was glorious.
--------------------------------------------
After Christmas break, Denise ran into one of the Alpha army officers
that we had met at the country club party the previous summer. She
arranged for the both of them to join us for pizza at a local
restaurant. Dressing a little less slutty, we excitedly joined the
two dashing soldiers for dinner. They regaled us with tales of
military life, which left Toni and I curiously a little jealous and
the girl's enthralled. After a couple of hours of listening to the
somewhat pompous lecturing and apparent disinterest in our lives
aside from a curiosity about the day to day lives of Gammas. Gracie
also noticed this mild oddity, but still tried to get an occasional
word in edgewise. She did manage a question about any combat
experience either of them may have had. Bill, the obvious senior of
the two, replied quietly that he had in Sumatra, he said that he was
a newly minted second lieutenant and recently graduated from field
artillery school and assigned to a small thing called firebase. He
went on explaining that they were positioned on a large sand spit
guarding the entrance to a small river and a larger staging area
upstream. They were attacked by a sizable group of Moslem irregulars
and nearly overrun. Continuing, he indicated that it was a very near
thing. It was touch and go before the artillerymen and the
infantryman assigned to perimeter security repelled the attack. He
didn't elaborate further. Sobering our party and promising to repeat
our evening, the two Alphas graciously made their departure.
Apparently oblivious to the tale of near tragedy, the girls merely
whispered their disappointment that our soldier friends did not wear
their uniforms. It would be so socially enhancing to be seen dining
with Alpha officer's. Toni and I filed this apparent indifference to
the real hazards of military life as the result of a very protective
life.
After making the required visit to the Ladies Room to make repairs to
our makeup and to remove any stray mushrooms from our faces and
clothing we left the restaurant and made the two block hike back to
our residence, enjoying the leers and whistles along the march. Over
wine, we discussed the evenings events. The girls, still in a state
of delirium about dining with the two soldiers were talking
themselves into an accelerated state of sexual excitement. This was
fine with Toni and I, as we were the nearest available objects of
relief. Without a word being said, the four of us repaired to our
bedrooms to don our usual activity costumes, fly away baby doll
nighties with very flimsy panties and fuzzy slippers. As usual, Toni
and I were the first to return to the contest field, the living room.
The girls finally paraded out of their bedroom, dildo's bouncing
announcing the nature of the evenings opening event. With glasses of
wine, safely placed out of harms way, uncapping of lubricant
containers commenced. I believe that the bold decision to impale
Toni and I was a very direct act to remind us of our Gamma status.
The girls also demanded that our chastity's were to remain in place
for the time being. They started with a squirting contest, but as we
didn't want cummies staining the carpet, volume of three emissions
into cheap balloons wrapped over our tubes open end would denote the
winner. I asked Gracie why the spurting contest? She replied that
soldier Bill gave her the idea when told the tale of his first day in
artillery school and inspecting the cannon for the first time, the
officers noted the lettering on barrel that read, 'point at the
enemy'. Immediately following Gracie's reply, fingers gripped the
bases of our butt plugs and the game was on. As the evening
progressed, our rectum and tongues were the girls targets, finally
the last event was to allow Toni and I were allowed to sixty-nine
while the girls watched and commented and awarded us style points.
Later, Toni and I were cuddling in bed, our chastity's removed, we
discussed the less than satisfactory turn of events. We had to put a
stop to this loss of our chastity keys to the tender mercies of the
girls. The next morning, we discovered our keys hanging on the door
knob of our bedroom and the girls gone. All of their belongings were
still here, but they left two hours prior to their first classes.
---------------------------------------
That afternoon, the girls returned to the apartment, but with dour
expressions. Toni asked what was wrong? Finally, Denise 'fessed
up', "Bill and Tom played more attention to you guys and barely
acknowledged that Gracie and I were there!" Green eyed jealousy
slithered onto the scene.
Toni laughed, I think that you will find that many males, Alpha's and
Beta's will be very curious about Gammas. Especially when we're out
with you two. You are very pretty women and we are very pretty
Gammas. Many men are fascinated by the comparison of pretty women
and pretty boys. Also, we have bigger boobs than you girl's have.
"That's another thing," Denise exclaimed, starting to laugh. "So,
you think that it's just curiosity?"
Toni nodded. "Keep in mind, young men have virtually no contact with
girls and even less with Gammas. Most guys our age have never even
met an Gamma."
Gracie and Denise looked at each other and half heartedly agreed.
"Your right," said Gracie, "We were pretty excited about pizza with
Tom and Bill and let down that we were basically ignored."
I jumped in and added, "I think that the longer we are here together,
the more we're going to meet more men and they will be just as
curious about us as Bill and Tom. I should add, I thought that Bill
was a bit pompous, but I wouldn't be surprised if that is a common
symptom among the Alphas."
"Yeah," added Toni, "but, by far most of the men that you will meet
will be Beta's and I have a hunch that that they will be much more
receptive to your charms."
Denise reddened, "OK, I'm sorry we humiliated you guys last night, so
Gracie and I will let you have a little revenge tonight." "Just a
little," interjected Gracie.
Denise blurted, "Guy's, do you think that we should see Bill and Tom
again if they ask?"
"Absolutely," I replied, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
------------------------------------------
It was only three days before Tom called and invited the four of us
too the Army and Navy 300 dance.
"What's the 300 dance?" asked Gracie.
Embarrassingly, I had to admit that I had no idea. So off to Google.
I reported to my roommates, that the 300 dance was a memorial event,
celebrating the stand of the 300 Spartans at the battle of
Thermopylae in ancient Greek times. While the Spartans were
annihilated, they bought time for other Greeks to unite and defeat
the invading Persians. So squeezing a bit of ancient Greek history
in our disinterested brains we had to yet determine, what to wear?
The dance was three weeks off, giving us time to determine the
parameters of the event. The easy way would have been to call Tom or
Bill and ask, but that would admit our ignorance. Out of the
question. It turned out that the affair was semi formal, so dressy
LBD's would be acceptable, easy enough. We had enough lead time to
make appointments at a reputable salon for the necessary beauty
overhaul and to decide if our existing frocks were suitable or if new
would be preferable. New of course. And shoes.
---------------------------------------
Surprise, surprise. Bill and Tom sent a limo to pick us up at our
apartment. They didn't accompany us in the limo, they sent a ROTC
cadet instead. He was a very cute and nervous Alpha that was going
to be an officer, but must have been highly thought of to assigned
such a delicate mission. He sat on one of the jump seats fidgeting
in his shyness. This was the first time that he had ever escorted
females and Gammas. He couldn't tell the difference between us,
typical of teenage men. Actually, most females could not separate
us, except that we Gammas were the taller two. The limo pulled into
the drop off lane and pulling to a stop, the cadet bounded out of the
vehicle opening the rear door us. Bill and Tom were standing on the
curb and were quite impressive in their dress uniforms. We were
escorted three by three through the main entrance' double doors, also
manned by uniformed cadets. Each of our officers had a lady on the
right arm and a sissy on his left. All very impressive and exciting.
A cadet in a white uniform jacket escorted us to our assigned table,
where three more similarly uniformed cadets stood waiting to seat the
officers ladies. This was all quite breathtaking for eighteen year
old's. Once seated, another white coated cadet holding an order
tablet asked the officers what beverages would we like. Bill and Tom
ordered whiskey's for themselves and red wines for us. I knew
immediately that this was going to be a very femme evening. Toni
squirmed in his seat and inadvertently brushed his butt plug against
his prostate and generate a little squirt of cum into his panty liner
with a muffled gasp. Tom and Bill had no clue as to what just
happened as Toni just quietly breathed, "Pardon me." Denise and
Gracie just hid smiles behind their bejeweled hands. Immediately
following Toni's minor faux pas, the parade began.
--------------------------------------------
First to arrive at our table was a Major, who Bill whispered was his
and Tom's commanding officer. He was clearly impressed that his
junior officers had corralled four such beauties. He gallantly
circles our table lightly kissing each of our hands. A first for all
of us. The Major was followed several Army Sergeant's, very trim and
impressive in their dress blues with the wide inverted chevrons and
left jacket chests emblazoned with a wide variety of colored ribbons,
about which we knew nothing. The Sergeant's merely nodded at our
introduction. The Sergeant's were followed by an Air Force Colonel
and a Navy Commander, both of which commanded their branches of the
Cadet Corps. Meeting all these military men, we surmised a great
deal of how that mysterious service [to women and Gammas] was
organized. The big clue was when two Warrant Officers paid their
respects to our table. The had silver wings above their rows of
ribbons on their jackets which we were told, indicated that they were
pilots. Lieutenant Bill informed us that all pilots were Warrant
Officers and Betas except for a few Alphas that passed flight schools
and were destined to be the commanding officers in the flying corps.
All of this military protocol was new to we girls and quite
exciting. Just for dinner was to be served, another Sergeant
approached our table. He was older and had a sleeve full of chevrons
and by far the most ribbons and silver wings with a tiny parachute in
the center on his chest. Both Tom and Bill immediately jumped to
their feet as they feet as they had done with the more senior
officers.
"Good evening Sergeant Major," said Bill, nearly at attention as was
Tom.
"Good evening to you sirs," replied the Sergeant.
We watched with fascination as this greeting was very different than
the ones for the other . Bill introduced us to Sergeant Major Beck.
The Sergeant Major did as the other officer's did, circled the table
greeting us individually and kissing our hands. This man was
different in that he exuded power and danger.
"Sergeant Major would you honor us by joining our table for dinner,
we have the room and the most beautiful ladies?" asked Bill.
A wry smile crossed his face and he nodded and replied, "I would be
honored, sir."
---------------------------------------------
Toni and I made room between us for our new guest, conveniently
moving the girls closer to the young officers. Bill flagged a white
bracketed cadet and informed him of the Sergeant Majors relocation.
Plates and silverware along with a glass of whiskey appeared at light
speed as three cadets had the Sergeant Major ready for dinner in less
than thirty seconds.
Turning to me the Sergeant Major said, "Thank you and your very
attractive companion's for putting up with these two young officers
for this stuffy evening. Your presence and Lieutenant Master's
generosity of sharing you and your lovely companions have saved me
from a tedious dining with that Air Force Colonel, his staff and
their wives this evening."
Just then a platoon of cadets refreshed our beverages, removed empty
glasses and served dinner. Bill and Tom were beaming having scored
the coup of having probably the most distinguished soldier in the
room dining at their table. Dinner was accompanied by the usual
small talk. We girls were somewhat intimidated by our company, but
managed not to blurt out anything out of order.
But, after the table had been cleared, I could not help myself. I
asked the Sergeant Major about the ribbons on his jacket.
He smiled and replied that the ribbons were representative of the
awards that a soldier receives during his time of service. He
pointed to the gold and red ribbon with small silver star in the
center on the top row of the two rows on Bills jacket. That ribbon
tells other soldiers that the Lieutenant served in the South East
Asian theater of operations and the star tells one that he was
engaged in combat during his tour. All ribbons have different color
combinations and denote different things. It is merely a modern form
of ancient heraldry."
I looked at the several rows of ribbons on the Sargent Majors jacket
and remarked that he had certainly accomplished quite a few things.
He smiled and just said that he had been around longer. Tom choked
on his drink by that comment.
The Sergeant Major rose and made his excuses for leaving and then
looking at Toni and I said, "Excuse me, but are you two Gammas?"
We both flushed and nodded timidly. He continued, "Beautiful,
absolutely beautiful." He shook both of our officers hands and was
off.
-------------------------------------------
Tom spoke up, "Sergeant Major Beck is one of the most highly
decorated soldiers in the entire Army. It was an honor to dine with
him."
Bill looked at Toni and I and remarked about how astonished he was
that the Sergeant Major concluded that we were Omegas. He continued
that while there nothing wrong with Gammas, it amazed he and Tom
because that they couldn't tell and nobody else did. We decided to
shake off the Sergeant Mayor's remarks and in a few minutes the band
struck up and the evenings festivities began. All of us girls spent
the rest of the evening dancing with soldiers, Alphas, Betas and even
some bold cadets. At the end of the evening, Bill and Tom rode with
us back to the apartment. Escorting us to the front door, they
declined our invitation to a nightcap. Explaining that they had duty
the next morning. Their loss. We were exhausted, so our nightcap
was short and our night wear was quite modest.
---------------------------------------------
Three months later, on a warm April day, Toni and I were sunning in
the local park. We were lounging on a blanket dressed in our Daisy
Duke's shorts and silk spaghetti strapped camisoles, boy and in our
case, girl watching.
A voice behind us gently startled us, "Are my favorite sissies
enjoying themselves?"
Turning around in was of all people the Sergeant Major. He was in
street clothes, shorts and a grey sweat shirt that had ARMY
embroidered across the chest.
We jumped up and squealed, "Sergeant Major Beck!!!!"
"As you were," he smiled. "I was out for a walk and look what I
found, the worlds prettiest sissies. Am I lucky or what?" We
blushed furiously and nervously offered our hands. He shook them
gently and asked, "Where are your roommate's. I'm surprised they let
you out of their sight."
"They're out on kind of a date with Bill and Tom," replied Toni.
Beck looked at Toni quizzically and then understanding crossed his
face, "Oh, the two young lieutenants," he smiled.
I came to my senses, "Please join us, Serg...." He cut me short,
"Please call me Dave, almost no one does and it would be a pleasant
change."
We chatted for a while with Toni and I becoming more comfortable as
we went. Dave then looked at his watch. "It's about time for lunch,
would you two care to join me?" he asked. We nodded in amazement.
He gathered up the blanket and pointing the direction led the way.
It was only a couple of blocks and we came to a tavern and we balked.
"Dave, we're only nineteen," exclaimed Toni.
Dave just smiled and replied, "Don't worry about that." So he held
the door and Toni and I scooted in. The bartender gave us a curious
look, but relaxed when he saw Dave follow us in.
"Good afternoon Sergeant Major, the ladies are with you?" he asked.
Dave replied, "They are, this Randi and swinging his hand, Toni. We
are here for lunch." A young woman server came over to us and asked
us to follow her. As we were being seated, Dave asked the girl to
bring three mugs of the house craft beer. No one asked for an ID or
asked our age. We were impressed with being in the company of power.
In short order, our beverages arrived along with three menus.
"Dave, I am amazed at the service that you get," whispered Toni.
He gave Toni a classic, 'What did you expect look.' Lunch was
typical bar food, but very good. He picked up conversation exactly
where it was left off in the park. He was genuinely interested in
our general personal histories. He explained that we were the first
Gammas that he had ever had an extensive conversation with. He was
particularly interested in our high school experiences.
"You realize that Alphas and Betas have very little contact, outside
of family, with teenage femininity." He was interested in any
problems we may have had 'transitioning,' as he so quaintly described
it. We told him that it was embarrassing to start with, the whole
lifestyle was so alien. Not just the clothes, but everything. Women
are just so different and they tend to bully mercilessly, but in a
more subtle, mental way. He asked about Denise and Gracie and how
intimate our relationship was. To that we just replied 'Very,' but
did not elaborate. We stayed at the bar for over two hours, had
three beers and Dave just signed the check and left a twenty on the
check, for the server. Before leaving the bar were exchanged phone
numbers and Dave asked if we would be interested in repeating lunch
in the near future. Trying not to appear to ecstatic, we accepted.
On the way out of the bar, the bartender said, "Come back soon,
ladies." It was very exciting afternoon for two teenage faux girls.
---------------------------------------
When Gracie and Denise returned to the apartment, they had Bill and
Tom in tow and asked us to Join them for dinner. Then, Denise gave
us a detailed description of their day with Bill and Tom sitting back
with their whiskies marveling at Denise's recall. As an after
thought, Gracie asked us about our day. I just replied that we just
had lunch with Sergeant Major Beck. Both Bill and Tom coughed their
drinks. Denise and Gracie just sat there mouth opened.
Bill spoke up, "Did you by chance mention Tom and I?"
"Just that you were out with the girls," replied Toni.
"How did you come to meet up with the Sergeant Major?" asked Tom.
I smirked, slightly, "At the park a couple of blocks away. He was
out for a walk and Toni and were getting some sun. He stopped and
joined us and a little later, he invited us to join him for lunch."
Bill laughed, "There are a few hundred thousand soldiers, sailors,
marines and airmen that would kill for a lunch with Sergeant Major
Beck and he hustled you two, amazing."
Toni piped up, "We talked for over two hours and he bought lunch and
few beers too.
"Providing alcohol to minors too, doubly amazing," reveled Bill.
I spoke up, "He must be a very important man. The service at the bar
was almost instantaneous, although he tips well."
Tom answered, "He is a very important man. He is in line for
Sergeant Major of the Army. A very big deal. He would be the most
senior enlisted man in the armed forces as, the Army is the senior
service. Not to mention his service record."
"He also asked us for our phone numbers," gloated Toni.
Bill just dropped his head on the table. Denise changed the subject
to dinner and we voted for Chinese. Bill and Tom left, somewhat
bemused by Toni and mine's adventure, saying that they would be back
at six thirty or so.
-----------------------------------------------
Lieutenant's Tom and Bill finished their courses in advanced
trigonometry in May and were reassigned, Bill to Korea and Tom to
Germany. Before they left they arranged a small going away party
where Bill proposed to Gracie and Tom to Denise. They had the
courtesy to advise Toni and I of their intentions. Surprisingly,
especially to Toni and I, we felt quite happy for the girls and the
guys, also. We had never discussed it, but we felt the flame
sputtering between us and the girls. Deep down in we knew that both
girls were too big a catch for even such outstanding sissies as Toni
and I. More over, we both did not feel like a lifetime of having our
sexual activities s controlled by them. I believe that neither of
the soldiers knew what in store for them. Toni also thought that
stormy weather was in the forecast. Over our freshman year, Toni and
I had grown closer and we were thinking of the girl's more as
roommates as opposed to the sexual athletes that began the term.
With the excitement of the engagement's waning, the living
arrangements for the four of us stayed the same, but we ceased all
sexual contact with them. In July, our friend Dave was appointed to
the Pentagon post. Toni and I were disappointed, but realistic about
the demands of military life we put up brave, but tearful front. The
girls, always somewhat intimidated by the Sergeant Major business
were probably relieved by his departure. We were all surprised when
Toni and I received an e-mail video of Dave's ceremony of him
assuming the post of Sergeant Major of the Army. It was nice, but
somewhat dull.
---------------------------------------------
Life in our apartment assumed a platonic routine. Gracie and Denise
were offered and accepted jobs as servers at Murphy's Bar and Grill.
Toni and I were given jobs as odd job clerks and gofers for the ROTC
units which Dave was formally the senior NCO. The girls made more
money at the bar, but given our notorious relationship with Dave, we
received a lot more respect. Toni and I lunched at Murphy's two or
three times a week and we soon had a gaggle of cadets following us
there. The bar owner Sean Murphy did make it clear that he would
allow us to dine, but Toni and I and our fawning cadets would not be
served alcohol until we were of legal age. It became a minor scandal
around campus that ROTC cadets were being served at Murphy's, but
not other under age students. A minor scandal in that the cadets were
among the very few male students at university that were under twenty
one that were being served at Murphy's. So went our Sophomore year.
--------------------------------------------
Memorial Day weekend Toni and I and the girls went home for the
holiday and of course, a big cookout for the four families was held a
Toni's parents house. It was a very pleasant affair, with everybody
over imbibing. The fathers gathered the four of us and asked our
plans for our sophomore year. Surprised, we hadn't considered a
change in our current arrangements, which pleased them no end. Just
as the impromptu, but short meeting ended, my cell phone rang. It
was Dave, he called regularly as it was, but he asked to talk with
Toni and my father.
"This call is for you and Mr. Ambelli, it's the Sergeant Major."
The expression on the two men's face was priceless. Both men had
served their required military service after high school and
technically still in the service in the inactive reserves.
My dad took my phone and answered, "Good afternoon Sergeant Major, to
what do I owe this honor?"
Our entire party went dead silent. What followed was, "fine, yes
sir, of course, yes, I believe that Mr. Ambelli would agree to that,
thank you sir and good day to you sir."
My dad, somewhat pale beneath his tan handed my phone back to me
saying, "The Sergeant Major would like to talk to you and Toni and he
said to put the call on speaker mode."
I took the phone and unthinkingly said, "How are you Dave?"
The fathers to a man, dropped their drinks. Dave went to tell me
that he would like Toni and I to work as paid interns for him in
Washington and if our fathers permitted, he would send all of the
details in Tuesday's mail. We then slipped into the pater among
friend's on a call. I asked him what he was doing and he replied
that he had been at a memorial ceremony at Arlington national
cemetery that morning and he and bunch of reprobate's from the 'Old
Guard' were unceremoniously swilling beer along with the Vice
President under a tent in the VIP area of the Arlington grounds.
I then handed the phone to Toni, "Dave wants to talk to you sweetie."
As Toni chatted with Dave, the father's, with fresh drinks in
disbelieving hands, eavesdropped in on Toni's conversation.
After the call, the fathers gathered around Toni and I with Mr.
Ambelli saying, "I knew that you two knew a sergeant major, but would
never guessed that it was that Sargent Major."
Then my Dad had all of the other dad's gather around and he gave them
the gist of the one sided talk that he had with the Sergeant Major.
Toni and I, for the first time in our lives were included in the
men's conversation. The men, of course were all veterans and as such
were very interested in our relationship with the Sergeant Major of
the Army. As Toni's and mine relationship with Dave was entirely
platonic we were free to be forthcoming in our remarks. The ladies,
huddled together in their own group and were in a state of mild
amazement at the sight of two Gamma sissies, dressed in somewhat
brief sundresses, being included in a conversation with a group of
men. The men were laughing at our descriptions of our many
encounters with Dave.
What impressed the men the most was my answering the phone, "How are
you Dave?" Apparently Sergeant Major's in the Army don't have first
names.
The following Wednesday, a large packet was delivered to our
apartment in Urbana. It contained a rather vague description of the
duties envisioned for the 'interns'. Also included in the packet
were the usual federal employment forms and detailed forms required
for receiving a security clearance. We had to call home and get some
basic information concerning our exact birth places. We dropped the
completed forms in the next morning's mail and during our lunch
break, went to Murphy's.
-----------------------------------------
Sean was tending bar and we filled him in on our new jobs in
Washington, provided some unknown stain didn't show up on our
security investigations. Sean was nearly as excited as we were and
he made us promise to thank Dave for indirectly supplying the ROTC
cadets as a nice add to his customer base. Two weeks later, Toni and
I were called into the Army ROTC Commander's office. Major Perkins,
clearly impressed, told us that our applications had been accepted
and that we were to go the United Airlines booth at the Indianapolis
International Airport and present the vouchers that the Detachment
Clerk will give you, this coming Friday at 08:00 hours, two
suitcases, maximum and be sure to pack at least three suits as part
of your wardrobe. Then the Major called in two Sergeant's to act as
witnesses. We were the only Gammas ever to take the federal military
oath of allegiance. The Major said, your in the Army now, you are to
have the pay grade of E-4, Specialists.
He continued, "As the Army does not have a female branch, you will
dress in attire dictated by your gender, Gammas. When you arrive in
Washington, you will be met by a driver and staff car. The driver
will take you to your quarters, an apartment provided by the Army.
You will consider yourselves to be on pass until 06:30 hours Monday
morning, when a staff car will pick you up and transport you to the
Pentagon. There, you will be met in the main foyer by one of the
duty officers and escorted to the Sergeant Major's offices. Later
today, no later than 15:00 hours you will report to the Army ROTC
Detachment Clerk and pick up your official orders, your military I.D.
card's and keep them with you at all times until you report to the
Sergeant Major's offices. What I have told you are not suggestions,
they are your orders. Now get out of here and go to Murphy's and
have your celebration. Dismissed."
Stunned, Toni and I scuttled out of Major Perkins and going down the
hallway, one of the Instructor Sergeant's winked at us and said, "You
two Troopers have one for me at Murphy's."
----------------------------------------------
We called our father's from Murphy's and sat through thirty seconds
of stunned silence as my dad gathered himself.
"You and Toni are officially in the Army? That's unheard of, I am
very proud, I think and now I am going to have to figure out how to
tell your mother."
We chatted more, telling him about how and when we were going to
Washington. Toni then called his father with the exact same
responses. Denise, had joined us and was as excited as we were.
Sean told us that if all of girls would come down to Murphy's
Wednesday night, he would provide the dinners and drinks for the four
of us girls as a going away dinner. We had a couple of more drinks
and then reported to the Detachment Clerk's office. Orders and
airline vouchers in hand, we did what all Gamma soldiers do, we went
shopping. That evening, we talked by phone with our mother's and
showed off the new suits we had purchased to Gracie and Denise. Then
the four of us got tearfully drunk. Toni asked Denise if she would
drive Toni and I to Indianapolis in his car and told the girls that
they could use his car until we returned in September.
-----------------------------------------------
When we debarked the plane in Washington, a soldier holding a
handwritten cardboard sign with our first names printed on it was
waiting.
His very surprised expression was explained by his slurring, "I
thought that the names on the cardboard sign were last names. You
can be assured that I am very pleasantly surprised."
We just smiled and said that we needed to collect our baggage. The
soldier identified himself as Rick, very efficiently collected a
small cart for our suitcases and we followed him out to his staff
car. We arrived at our new apartment in about forty five minutes and
Rick said that we were about ten miles from the Pentagon and he would
be picking us up Monday morning at 06:30 hours and we should eat
breakfast before we left as we would certainly cause a good deal of
confusion. Rick helped us with our luggage and assured us that he
would certainly enjoy this assignment. Our apartment was a very
roomy one bedroom with a queen sized bed, ample closet space, a
kitchen, dining room, living room and large bathroom. All in all
very satisfactory.
A block down the street was small shopping center, with a
supermarket, liquor store, beauty parlor, department store, and best
of all, a bar. Once we were unpacked, we went shopping for food and
booze. We noticed a automotive dealership next to the shopping
canter and we rented a car on a short term lease. The apartment was
completely furnished and had new linens in the linen closet and
flatware and a nice collection of pots, pans, skillets and a small TV
in the kitchen, a large flat screen in the living room and a stereo
center also in the living room. Toni remarked that it appears that
we had joined a very thoughtful Army. We spent the weekend exploring
although we didn't venture into Washington DC proper.
---------------------------------------------------
Monday morning came early, 05:00 hours. We showered in shifts, toast
and coffee for breakfast, put on our faces, brushed our hair and
dressed. We had five minutes to spare before Specialist Rick
arrived. Rick inspected us and asked us decidedly unusual questions.
'Did we have our orders and military ID's'. Rick dropped us off at
the main entrance and told us to see the soldier at the security
desk. Show our ID cards and orders and he will arrange for an
escort. Entering the building, we were surprised at the number of
women and Gamma's [?] in the lobby area. We stopped at the security
desk, showed our ID cards and watched the officer physically stagger
as compared the card photos with us. Regaining his composure, the
lieutenant drew a breath and said that he had never seen an Gamma
with a military ID. He then stepped back into the security office
and a military policeman came out with him and assumed the identical
amazed expression. The lieutenant explained that the MP would escort
to us the Sergeant Majors office.
Arriving at the Sargent Majors office, the MP winked and said "Good
Luck, ladies."
A Master Sergeant came out from behind his desk and gurgled,
Specialists Thomas and Ambelli, I presume?"
The Sergeant then called through an open door into a larger office,
"Sergeant Miller, our new troopers are here."
A short Staff Sergeant came into the foyer office, stopped dead in
his tracks and assumed the open mouthed state of astonishment that
was becoming common. Closing his mouth, Sergeant Miller murmured,
"If these two are Thomas and Ambelli, things are improving remarkably
around here." Continuing, he said, "I handle the personnel items
here, so you can give me your Orders."
After being relieved of our orders, Sergeant Oostmann told us to
follow him. We went into another ante-office that handled the
communications and the day to day routine. We were introduced
briefly to the five soldiers in the office to their astonishment and
proceeded into the Sergeant Majors office. Dave came around from his
desk and greeted us warmly and commented approvingly of our suits and
dismissed Sergeant Oostmann.
------------------------------------------------
Admiring our appearance in our new suits, with hems fours inches
above the knee, mind you, Dave gushed, "You, two are the best looking
troopers in the Army. You have certainly made an impression in your
first fifteen minutes here. My phones been ringing off the hook.
Now, there is a lot to do this morning. First, let me show you guys
your office,"
Both Toni and I were overwhelmed so far by the reception we had
received, obviously testosterone enhanced.
We followed Dave into a small office just off of his. "This is
yours, it's small, but it has a private latrine. The only one in the
suite without a urinal," he smiled. "Now, let's talk about your
jobs."
Toni and I sat down on the empty desk top and gave Dave our absolute
attention.
Dave cleared his throat and continued, "As I outlined in my memo
inviting you guys here, I have convinced the Army that they needed to
reach out to that over fifty percent of the population that we
basically ignore. So, I lied to the brass and told them that I knew
the two people that were familiar with the Army and knew all about
that neglected fifty plus percent. What I have in mind is for the
two of you to experience, partially, the training beyond basic
training of recruit Beta's in the combat arms and some of the support
branches. We envision a Facebook page that will show video of you
two participating in the various aspects of the training regimes in
the instructional schools for those branches and interviews with some
selected recruits. Also, if possible, start a blog with daily inputs
about your experiences. How does that sound to you two?"
We sat on the desk open mouthed and numbly nodded our assent.
"Good," said Dave. "Your payroll setup is taken care of, the same as
your ROTC pay, direct deposit to your personal bank accounts. By the
way, your monthly is something around twenty five hundred dollars.
Of course, the Army will cover your billets and you'll get a per diem
for those days that you are not in Washington. Now, today, after we
get your Pentagon ID badges put together, Specialist Merkel, that's
Rick, will drive you over to Fort Myer, where you will report to 1st
Battalion, 3rd Infantry Supply and pick up your clothing issue and a
partial issue of your battle rattle. About your clothing, since you
have been subjected to female hormones for an extended period of
time, it is unlikely that the clothing will fit properly. So, I have
arranged for a tailor and two seamstress' to meet you at supply, they
will make the necessary adjustments while you wait. Take all of your
issued items home with you to your apartment and store them there.
Any questions?"
We sat there in stunned silence. We weren't going to just sit around
the Pentagon and conjure up press releases, we were going to create
these press items on camera and be the star's. We were truly going
to be in the Army. OMG.
------------------------------------------
It only took about a half hour to get our ID badges and Rick showed
up a few minutes later.
"I guess we're going to 3rd Infantry S-3 and get you two troopers
outfitted," smiled Rick.
We nodded, not very confidently. I chirped, "Dave, said it was a
clothing fitting and to pick up something called 'battle rattle' and
other stuff."
Rick smiled broadly and replied, "I don't think that your going to
issued Class A's, that's what I am wearing. Rather, I'd bet it's
going to be fatigue's, field pack, duffel bag, mess kit and other
stuff. It's all very sexy, but none of it will accessorize very well
with those very nice suits that you will be wearing around here."
Toni broke in, "Sergeant Major said that we were take all of the
stuff back to our apartment and keep it there."
"That makes sense," explained Rick. "Your apartment is your billet,
that what the Army calls barracks." Continuing, Rick said, "It's
09:15, so let's get going."
We arrived at Fort Myer and showed our military ID's to the
astonished MP at the entry gate and Rick smoothly pulled over to the
curb, got out of the staff car and asked two soldiers walking by,
directions. Getting back into the car, Rick said, "I've never been
here before and had no idea of where S-3 was."
Shortly thereafter we pulled up to a warehouse type building, that
read 1st Bn. 3rd Inf. Rgmt. Supply.
"We're here ladies," announced Rick, somewhat smugly.
Standing next to a van with Army markings were two Spec. 4's. They
were photographing us as we walked up the sidewalk towards the entry
door. I asked Rick who were they. Rick replied that they were from
457th Signal Detachment and were part of our team. They would be
shooting the video for our Facebook page. Toni and I just looked at
each other and shrugged our shoulders.
------------------------------------------
In the entry foyer, a Spec. Four sat at the small desk and eyed us
with the customary open mouthed wonder that Toni and I were becoming
comfortable with. Quickly recovering, the soldier looked at Toni and
I, asking, "Thomas and Ambelli?"
We nodded and the soldier added, "Follow me, please."
With our comfortable heels making a soft clicking on the drab tiled
floor, we entered a large room with a long counter on one side
fronting what obviously a large warehouse. Behind the counter a
Staff Sergeant leered at us. Our video team took up positions and
proceeded to record everything that happened.
Next to the Sergeant stood three women peering at us with practiced
eyes we only seen before at a dress boutique. The Sergeant spoke
first, introducing himself as Sergeant Anderson and waving a hand
towards the women, introducing them as Ms. Zimmerman, head seamstress
and her assistant's. "I received a call from Sergeant Major Beck
this morning and nearly had a heart attack. I must be the first
Supply Sergeant t in history to get a personal telephone call from
the Sergeant Major of the Army. Sergeant Major Beck informed me that
for your personal equipment dispersal, you would be using the Third
Infantry as your supply base. For the record's, I will need to have
you fill out these brief forms. I will need your names, rank, serial
numbers, unit, that will be Headquarters and Headquarters Company,
1st Battalion, 3rd Infantry Regiment and your duty station, that will
be Headquarters and Headquarters Company, U.S. Army, Pentagon. These
ladies have first call on you. They are going fit you to your
fatigue's. Your present physical proportions do not appear to comply
with current Army typical standards. While you are in the company of
Ms. Zimmerman, the two Specialists here will gather and layout your
kit for you to confirm and sign for. Do you understand?" We nodded
and answered, "Yes, Sergeant." Anderson then faced Ms. Zimmerman and
nodded. "Follow me girls." Ordered Zimmerman and she waved for us to
come with her. She turned and halted the video team in their tracks,
saying that it was ladies only from this point.
--------------------------------------
"You girls realize that you are making history. The first non-males
ever to be inducted into the American military," gushed Ms.
Zimmerman, adding, "I know that you are Gamma's, but it is a great
day for women too."
We entered what was a large locker room that had a hunky Lance
Corporal stationed at it's entrance.
"He's here to see to it that we are not disturbed," murmured Ms. Z.
To Toni and I it was like a day in a very drab dress shop and the
clothes were hideous. The ladies had us disrobe and they
complimented us on our suit as they carefully hung them in lockers.
Off came our shoes, garter belts, stockings and blouses. Finally,
reduced to panties and bra's were ready for our new army outfits.
First came a pair of heavy wool blend socks and a cotton tee shirt,
both were drab brown. The tee shirts were going to have to be taken
in at the shoulder's and waist. Next came the trousers, we had not
worn trousers since we were twelve, it was very odd and confining.
The trousers fit in the butt, but everywhere else they had to taken
in. Then the blouse, again too big at the waist and shoulders.
Finally, the boots. They stylish in a butch sort of way, but way
heavier than anything you would buy. The outer clothing was all the
same color, they called it standard camouflage. While we were
getting measured and pinned, any complete item was turned over to one
of the junior seamstress' for transformation. I must admit that they
worked very fast. Within an hour, Toni and I stood in front of a
mirror in our newly tailored 'battle dress'. It was horrible in a
very exciting sort of way. Ms. Z was satisfied with the fit, we were
not consulted and went to the door and told the soldier stationed
there that we were ready to get our other stuff. Ms. Z told us that
the other two sets of fatigue's would ready in an hour or so. We
returned to the main supply room and found the counter piled high
with 'stuff'.
-------------------------------------------
Rick whistled softly as Toni and I marched into the room. "I can
truthfully say that I know the prettiest troopers in the 3rd
Regiment," whispered Rick.
Sergeant Anderson concurred and added, "Those are the best fitting
fatigues that I have ever seen. Now that we have you two properly
uniformed, let's get down to business."
He handed us each a form which was a checklist for all of the items
on the counter. Starting with the duffle bag, Toni and I checked
off all of the items on the counter plus what we were wearing and the
two sets of fatigues undergoing reconstruction. Surprisingly, they
all fit in the bag. We signed the form and looked with not a little
bewilderment at the two full oblong bags at our feet.
Sergeant Anderson inspected the forms that we had signed, satisfied
he looked us and said, "It has been a distinct pleasure outfitting
our new members of the 'Old Guard' and don't forget you civvies."
Shortly thereafter, Ms. Z announced that our fatigues were ready and
our suits and shoes were boxed and ready to go. Toni and I
shouldered our duffle bags and Rick and one the video techs grabbed
our civvies and off to the staff car we went, dutifully recorded by
the second video tech. Rick introduced us to our video team, Jeff
Butler and Mason Jenkins and suggested that since we had all missed
lunch that we stop at a fast food place and get know each other.
----------------------------------------------
A burger joint was the first thing we came to and we all ordered
through the drive through. We pulled into a small municipal park
down the street and proceeded to 'picnic'. Rick told us all, between
mouthful's of burger and fries that he worked for Sergeant Major Beck
as his driver and the two Spec. 4's from Signal were TDY [temporary
duty] assigned to the Sergeant Majors staff and they would be with us
as part of our team for the rest of the summer. The Signal guys
would shoot and edit the video's for our Facebook page. Mumbling
around more French fries, Rick also laid out a brief description of
our itinerary for the summer. Looking at Toni and I, he continued in
more detail, we were to experience Army life up close and personal.
Starting Thursday, we were going to Fort Dix to qualify with the
Army's standard issue shoulder weapon, the M4 at the post rifle
range. We were going by helicopter, leaving from Fort Myer and to
report to Headquarters Company of the 2nd Battalion of the 129th
Training Regiment. Jeff spoke up saying that the 2nd Battalion was
his Basic Training unit, so he knew where it was. Toni suggested
that we get some beer and continue the discussion at the apartment.
Rick being twenty one, was elected to get the beer. Toni said that
we would get the beer as Rick had to return the staff car to the
Pentagon's motor pool. I asked Jeff and Mason about their van and
they said that their duty station was at Fort Belvoir but the
Sergeant Major had arranged for an apartment for them, not too far
from ours. They also added that they weren't twenty one yet, well
neither were Toni and I, but we had excellent fake Illinois drivers
licenses that remedied that problem. Rick did suggest that we call
into Sergeant Oostmann and ask to be dismissed for the day, adding
that the Army did not like it's soldiers wandering off.
I called the Sargent Majors office and talked with Sgt. Oostmann and
he said to go ahead and take off,1 but not to unpack the barracks bag
as we were going to Fort Dix Thursday. So, Toni and I dropped our
Army stuff off at our apartment, changed into more mature shorts and
dressy tee shirts. We redid our make-up and looking every bit over
twenty one, headed for the liquor store.
-----------------------------------------
About an hour later, Jeff and Mason showed up followed by Rick thirty
minutes later. We drank beer and played the video on our laptop and
between the five of us put together what we thought was a coherent
presentation. Then we started on composing the blog. Two pizzas and
two twelve packs later, we think we had a presentation that would
appeal to the mother's and sisters of young Army troops. Rick,
drinking his final beer at about eight played out our duties for
tomorrow. Jeff and Mason were to report to the Sergeant Majors
office at 08:00 dressed in their class A uniforms. Toni and I would
be picked up by Rick at 07:45 and would be in our business suits and
the five of us would review the video and the blog in Toni and mine's
office before we presented it to Sargent Major Beck.
--------------------------------------------------
The next morning, after tweaking our presentation, Dave had time to
review it. He played the video on his laptop and read through the
blog and peered at us sternly and congratulated Jeff and Mason for
their video work, especially capturing the footage of the best
looking fatigues in the Army and deemed the blog as accurate and
thoughtful. "Well done, at least I like it. I'm going to have the
rest of the staff look at it and if it passes muster, I'll present it
to General McFarland for his approval and we'll see what happens,"
said Dave.
Then looking at the five of us, he asked if Rick had informed about
Thursday? We nodded yes and then he said, "standby in the PX
cafeteria and I'll keep you advised."
About two hours a later, Sgt. Oostmann showed up and told us, "The
Sergeant Major said to tell you 'Well done and that your dismissed
for today."
Rick smiled and said, "OK, we've had a good start. Show up tomorrow,
same uniform, and we'll plan Thursday."
----------------------------------------
Toni and I were dropped off by Rick and we changed into our civvies
and engaged in some vigorous sexual activity. We mused about the
number of Spec. 4's in the Army spent three hours corn holing each
other that day. We lay naked on our queen sized bed alternatively
jacking each other off and sixty nining. It was very invigorating in
a relaxing way. After we showered, dressed in our Daisy Dukes and put
on light make-up and mixed Pina Colada's and talked about our Army
life. Which we agreed was an excellent way to spend a summer. While
we were e-mailing pictures and comments concerning our fatigues, Rick
called. He asked if he could come over to acquaint us with some of
the gear in our barracks bags that we were going to use Thursday.
Toni asked him if he likes Pina Colada's? "You do! Well come on over
big boy."
Rick came by to discover two fairly buzzed Gamma's dressed in their
best casual 'fuck me' clothes.
"I see that you two have a hefty head start on me," laughed Rick.
"Yes," giggled Toni. "We were celebrating our second full day as
soldiers. So far, we like what we see."
Rick snorted, "Well, that's going to change Thursday. And, that's
why I asked to come over. However, I might be a little late."
"What's the big deal about Thursday?" I asked.
"Well....your going on a two mile hike, in full combat
gear.....carrying a rifle. You are going to be instructed in the use
of that weapon and you are going to shoot at targets.....for record.
If you don't perform satisfactorily, you will have to do it again."
"Oh, shit," murmured Toni. "What's the hard part?" I whispered.
"For you guy's, the hike will be the hardest. You have to hike
there.....and back," stated Rick. "I brought with me a couple of
item's that is not part of your initial issue that we need to fit."
We eyed Rick suspiciously as he pulled Kevlar helmets out of his
sports bag. "Be thankful that the helmets are Kevlar. They are a
lot lighter than the old steel ones the Army used fifty years ago,"
pontificated Rick. "Come over here Randi and we'll get you set up."
I sat on the couch next Rick and he pulled a cloth that had the same
camouflage pattern as our fatigue's. He wrapped the fitted cloth
over the helmet and sat the device on my head. It was loose, so Rick
adjusted the fitted head band a couple of times so the helmet sat
snug on my head. Then he adjusted the chin straps and I looked in
the mirror, in horror.
"Looks good," said Rick. "OK, Toni let's get you set up." Rick
appraised his efforts and said, "Your battle harness and canteens are
in your barracks bag along with your belts, poncho, mess kit, extra
socks, underwear, fatigue's, beret, field cap, wear that tomorrow and
the other stuff that will go into your field pack. This is not the
full combat load, which weighs about eighty pounds. You'll be
carrying about forty."
I asked again, "So, are we to wear the fatigue's on the trip to this
Fort Dix?"
Rick nodded, "My advice is to be careful with the alcohol Wednesday
night, it will be an early start and you don't want to have the added
baggage of a hangover." Rick sat back with his beer and looked at
the two very pretty Gamma'. He hadn't been this close to non-
relative females since, never. Even their faint, rum soaked perfume
was intoxicating and they were boys. Two soft, curvy and very pretty
boys. He didn't think that gender could be so maneuvered as to
produce such wonders.
'I have the best job in the Army', he mused.' He also knew that for
the next twenty four hours, he had to prepare these two to enter the
actual door to the masculine world. They could drink like men, swear
like men, but they did not think like men and the fact that they
shared a bed flummoxed him until it dawned on him that the Sergeant
Major knew far more about them than he let on. Do your job, he
warned himself. Don't even begin to wander out of bounds with these
two. He knew he had to keep the two Signal guys on the straight and
narrow also.
-----------------------------------------------
The next morning was spent setting up the Facebook page. The five
soldiers finally got the page open and the page nearly shuts down
with all of the hits.
"I think we have a success" opined Rick. "OK, I have an empty room
down the hall. Jeff, you and Mason will assist me in a little
dismounted drill exercise for our stars."
I looked at Toni and mouthed 'dismounted drill?'
Rick smiled, "Yes, DD. You need to know the basics for our little
excursion tomorrow. It's not difficult, but required."
"Can we do this in skirts?" asked Toni.
"I don't think that there will be a problem. These are not difficult
maneuvers, but you should know them. You're going to be in a
formation of troops tomorrow and all they are going to do is the very
basics of drill," replied Rick.
The five soldiers went down the hall to the vacant room and Rick laid
out his drill plan.
"Jeff, you and Mason take the girls over to the side over there and
instruct them as how to stand at attention, parade rest and at ease.
Then teach the proper way to hand salute. Once we get that under
control, we'll work right, left and about face. Once over that hill
we will march in step and then route step. That's about all we need
to cover."
For the next two hours we saluted, right faced, left faced, marched
in step and discovered why the Army does not wear heels. We got home
tired, but excited about our Fort Dix adventure.
---------------------------------------------
Thursday, Rick picked us up at 05:30 and Jeff and Mason arrived at
the same time. We decided to get breakfast before our flight to
Dix. We arrived at the helipad at Fort Myer and met our pilot, a
Chief Warrant Officer with a macabre sense of humor and a leering
eye.
We landed at Andrews AFB and were met by a Lance Corporeal driving a
van and he took us to our destination, Headquarters Co., 2nd Bn.,
129th Tng. Rgmt. right on time and under the suspicious gaze of the
Battalions Sgt. Major, we drew weapons and instructions. The First
Sergeant of A Co. arrived at the A Company Armory and took us under
his wing. First Lieutenant Wilson, Commanding Officer of A Company
met us and instructed the First Sergeant and the Platoon Sergeant as
what was to be the expected conduct of the trainees. At precisely
09:30 hours, A Company fell in to ranks.
We [Toni and I] were assigned to the 4th Squad of the 4th Platoon and
in the 4th rank. We were at the very end of the column. Eating
dust, I believe is the correct term for our position in the column.
We had our M4's on the strap on our shoulders. The Company was
called to attention, right face forward march. Then attention again
and then route step. After about a quarter of a mile, our pack
starting to let us know that they were there. Thank God, the road
was reasonably flat and an hour later, we arrived at the range. We
took a ten minute break and the range Safety Officer gave his talk,
followed by the Battalion Sgt. Major who gave a short discernment
about Toni and mine's presence on the range.
The Company was informed that we were part of a project being
conducted by the Sergeant Major of the Army and that it would be
better to pee on the shoes of the President of the United States
rather than disrespect in any way the personnel assigned by the
Sergeant Major of the Army. After this warning, a Staff Sergeant
collected Toni and I and we given, intense, but very courteous
instruction in aiming and discharging the M4 rifle. We did quite
well, and qualified as Sharpshooters. While we were involved in
military training matters, our Signal cohorts were unobtrusively
recording our march to the range and our training and actual firing.
We were encouraged to talk and record those conversations with other
trainees. These interviews turned out to be very good stuff for our
subsequent video and blog. After the hike back to the company area,
the Battalions Sgt. Major invited the five of us to have evening chow
with the trainees at the mess hall. More interviews and
video.....excellent. Rick was ecstatic about the days events.
Sergeant Major Dave was ecstatic about the video and the interviews.
Toni and I were very proud, after the trip we earned our title of
soldiers. That evening, after showering and donning our sexist
nighties, Toni and I had a few cocktails and engaged in decidedly
unmilitary activities.
------------------------------------------------
Rick answered his cell phone, to his surprise it was Sergeant Major
Beck. "Sergeant Major, this is a surprise. What can I do for you?"
Answered Rick.
The Sergeant Majors replied, "Rick, I have a proposition for you that
I would like to discuss in private. Can you meet me in the PX
cafeteria in five minutes?"
Rick, without hesitation answered, "I'm on my way, sir."
A few minutes later, over both men met in the noisy, crowded
cafeteria.
Beck started off quickly, "I'm sure that you are aware that your tour
of duty will complete next May. I am authorized to offer you an
immediate promotion to Sergeant E-5 and a bonus of ten thousand
dollars, if you re-enlist."
Rick sat back, clearly surprised.
The Sergeant Major continued, "The reason this offer is coming now is
the Facebook detail that you have been ramrodding has gone viral and
General McFarland does not like the idea of a pack of Spec 4's
gallivanting around the country without there being an NCO in charge.
As I said, your Facebook project is quite the success. In less than
a week, it has had hits in the eight figures, well done."
Rick stuttered, "Thank you for the compliment Sergeant Major, but I
hadn't planned on re-enlisting. I was hoping to enter college after
I got out of the Army."
Beck smiled and nodding, "The General guessed as much. I'm going to
sweeten the pot. The Army will enroll you at Virginia Tech this
coming fall as a part time student. In addition, after you have
completed two years in grade as an E-5, you will be enrolled in the
Warrant Officer Training Academy, earmarked for the Aide de Camp
program."
Rick was astonished, becoming a WO Aide de Camp was one of the
biggest plums in the Army.
Beck went on, "As you know, the way the Army is organized, only
Alphas can become commissioned officer's and only those Alphas that
graduate from West Point will rise to General officer's rank. The
bulk of the Officer Corps are ROTC products, but will never go beyond
bird Colonel. WO Aide's only work with General's and West Point
Colonel's. If you accept this offer, General McFarland wants to meet
you this afternoon."
Rick took a deep breath, and murmured, "This is best offer that I
have had today, I accept Sergeant Major."
Beck looked Rick in the eye and reached across the small table and
the two men shook hands. Getting up to leave, the Sergeant Major
stated in a matter of fashion, "On thing that I will not tolerate in
this command is soldiers being out of uniform. Sergeant Merkel, get
into the PX, purchase the insignia appropriate to your rank and have
the tailor sew them on and see me at my office immediately after
chow."
Rick sat back and whistled to himself, 'I guess that I am really in
the Army now'.
----------------------------------------------
Toni and I, along with Jeff and Mason were going over the Fort Dix
video and outlining the blog in or office. Rick was nowhere to be
found, so we carried on without him. We heard clapping coming from
the foyer office and Jeff crack or office door open and took a peek.
He turned around and motioned for the rest of us to join him.
"It's Rick, something's going on," he said.
Being naturally nosey, Toni and I led the way into the small crowd.
It was Rick, surrounded by the office staff. Worming our way to the
front, there stood Rick with Dave shaking hands around.
Mason whispered, "Look at his jacket sleeves, Rick made Sergeant."
The Sergeant Major turned and the four of us standing there and
boomed out, "Those are the soldiers that made Merkel a Sergeant.
Everybody, give them a hand." Dave continued, "Sgt. Merkel just came
from General McFarland's office with the sweetest re-enlistment deal
ever given a dog face. Along with the new stripe and the ten grand
bonus, if Sgt. Merkel keeps his nose clean and continues with hits
exemplary performance, he guaranteed the first available class at the
Warrant Officers Academy once he completes his time in grade
requirement. He guaranteed placement in the WO Aide de Camp school
as the Icing on the cake. Well done Rick."
The men in the office were clearly impressed. "OK, back to work,
men. Oh, I am expecting a sixty liter keg of beer, that left Rhine-
Main this morning and a mixed case of booze to be delivered here this
afternoon. This promotion deserves a proper celebrating." Sargent
Oostmann then bellowed, "Sgt. Merkel, assemble your detail and get
them back to work. They fucked off all morning.
------------------------------------------
Back in our office, we continued congratulating and questioning Rick.
He admitted that the Sergeant Major took advantage of General
McFarland's desire to have an NCO in charge of our team and he put
together a package I could not refuse. The brass needed someone to
blame beside a committee of Spec 4's. He then asked what we had come
up with for this weeks Facebook page and blog. I told Rick that we
had a good start and we might finish it this afternoon and give the
product to the Sergeant Major for approval and pass along to the
General. About 14:30, the beer and liquor arrived and progress
halted. It was a party to remember, Toni and I were hit on
unmercifully. Somewhat inebriated, the five of us returned to the
office and put the finishing touches on the video and blog. Rick and
the Signal guys came up to apartment with us and we had private
celebrating session. Then Rick dropped the bomb shell. He told
about our next project, we going to fly to Ft. Sill in Oklahoma and
fire cannons. Being as drunk as we where, the idea of discharging
high explosives didn't faze us in the least. Our Fort Dix video and
blog were approved by Dave and the General, on Tuesday, so
preparations for our expedition to the artillery training center went
into high gear and prepared to leave DC the next morning.
-----------------------------------------
Jeff and Mason picked us up at 05:30 and met with Rick at small
restaurant near Fort Myer. After a quick breakfast, we went to
helipad, boarded the Blackhawk and flew to Andrews AFB, which is
associated with Fort Dix. There we transferred to a Air Force Hawker
400-XP, a small, comfortable passenger jet.
Three hours later we landed at Fort Sill. We were met by a Lance
Corporeal driving a passenger van. We went directly to the Field
Artillery Training Center where we met a First Lieutenant who gave
Toni and I what we now referred to as the Army gape. He gave us a
great deal of courtesy, realizing that the arrival of four Spec.
Fours and a Buck Sergeant in an Air Force passenger jet was
sufficiently unusual to merit caution. Just as the Lieutenant began
his speech about the mission of the Artillery Training Center, the
Center's Regimental Sergeant Major and his entourage arrived and
graciously took over.
We were assigned to a training Battery that was learning about the
M119, 105mm Howitzer. Rick explained to the Sergeant Major what our
mission was and where he could find our report on the internet. The
Sergeant Major was very interested in our project and our wheels were
greased. The Sergeant Major insisted upon tagging along with us and
we readily agreed. The Sergeant Major jumped into the van with us
and off we went to the artillery range. Arriving at the Range
Masters hut, the Sergeant Major talked briefly with the Captain in
charge and a few minutes later a First Lieutenant and a Sergeant
First Class appeared. The Sergeant Major explained to the new
arrivals what we were about and how important this would be to the
Army. Just as the Sergeant Major finished his spiel, his cell phone
rang. Answering it and a few Yes Sir's later, he handed the phone to
the Captain and that officer did an admirable imitation of the SM.
The Captain then handed the phone to the Lieutenant, advising him
that it was the Post Commander. With formalities out of the way, the
Captain told the Lance Corporeal to follow his Humvee.
Toni and I were shown around the battery, which consisted of three
M119 Howitzer's that were towed by truck's. There were seven
trainees manning each gun. We were engaged in handling ammo, then
loading the gun and even got to pull firing lanyard. After the
exercise, we had the opportunity to talk with the trainees and
instructors. We got a lot of exciting video while firing the piece
and excellent interviews. The main draw back, however was handling
the ammo. Each of the shells weighed sixty pounds, a load that
Gamma's rarely encounter.
We were then informed that we were to overnight at a local motel,
because there were no secure billets available for Gamma's on post.
That suited all of us just fine. The aircrew of the plane that we
flew to Ft. Sill in were also staying at the same motel. The eight
of us had a very interesting dinner and drinks afterwards. The
aircrew was enjoying what they referred to as a nice two day pass,
playing golf at the Ft. Sill post course. After the Air Force
finished bragging about their golf game, the pilot asked us what was
on the schedule for tomorrow? Rick replied that our two 'star's'
were going to revolutionize the Field Artillery's understanding of
M109SPA'S utility.
"So, you girl's are going to menace the state of Oklahoma with a self
propelled 155mm cannon tomorrow ?" remarked the pilot.
Toni and I grinned and told him that menacing would local only. The
pilot laughed and said that we would be staying at the motel one more
night and that we would be flying back to Andrews Friday morning.
Takeoff would be at 08:30 hour and our Blackhawk would waiting for
us. The airmen didn't know that our evening had been videoed by our
very sneaky Signal Corps Specialists.
-------------------------------------------------
Our day with the M109SPA crew was cramped, but very exciting. We
merely observed as the workings of the self propelled gun required a
good deal of training. At the lunch break, MRE's [meals ready to
eat], we were given an in depth tour of the vehicle and an
opportunity to take some great video and get good interviews with the
crew. The day was followed by another enjoyable meal with the
aircrew and several adult beverages.
Toni and I had packed a nightie each and settled in one the two
double beds in our room and started our evenings entertainment off
with snuggly kissing and mutual masturbation. Being in a good mood,
Toni flipped me over onto my tummy and with two fingers, greased my
bottom up very thoroughly and when was satisfied with his handiwork,
flipped over onto my back. Knowing what was coming, I raised my
hips, spread my legs and Toni slid his cock past my sphincter and
kissing me all the time, gave me very excellent fucking. Before he
came, he pulled out of my bottom with a slight pop and sat on my
chest, pinning my arms to my side, bent forward, pinching my nostrils
shut, forcing me to breath through my mouth, embedded his cock in my
mouth.
Once Toni had his sliding against my lips, he began to talk to me.
"What do think our fearless leader, Sgt. Merkel is doing right now?
Drinking with the flyboys at the bar? Watching TV in his room?
Stroking his cock?"
I replied, "Mmmph, Mmmph. "
Toni, still thrusting into my mouth, "What about our two video techs?
Drinking beer in their room? Romping with hookers?"
Again, I replied, "Mmmph, Mmmph."
Toni giggled, "Girl, you are having a hard time enunciating. Is your
mouth full?
Once more, "Mmmph, Mmmph."
Toni laughed, "I think your right, your mouth is full."
After a few more strokes, he gushed his seed onto my eager tongue.
It was heavenly. After cleaning his tool thoroughly with my tongue,
we repeated the activity with me on top. We spent the next hour
exercising in a variety of other positions. Ah, the Army life for
Gamma's. We started Friday morning with delicious sixty nine and
then dressed in our yucky fatigues, packed for our flight back to
Andrews AFB.
----------------------------------------- ----------
Upon our return to the Pentagon, Dave was very pleased with our video
and blog inputs as was General McFarland. In the next few weeks we
made a helicopter assault with the 1st Air Cavalry at Fort Campbell,
drove M1A1 main battle tanks at Fort Knox, marched in a 4th of July
parade with a ceremonial company of the 3rd Infantry 'Old Guard' in
revolutionary war uniforms and worked with Combat Engineers at Fort
Leonard Wood. All in all it had been a very exciting summer. Our
Facebook page was a huge success as was our blog. One good thing
though, when Toni and I went out in civilian clothes, we weren't
recognized. We got strange looks occasionally, transferring a face
from fatigues and helmet to a sundress and make-up is mentally
difficult. It was early August and Toni and I were called into
Sergeant Major Dave's office and were surprised to see General
McFarland also there.
After the General returned our salutes, with a grin....Dave told us
to take a seat. "General McFarland has approached me with an idea
for your last mission for this summer," said Dave. "If you accept,
and this would be totally voluntary. If you accept, you will be the
most famous Specialist Fours in the Army. That is if you aren't
already. How do you feel about going to airborne training school and
qualifying as Army parachutists?"
We turned green at the thought, jumping out of a perfectly good
airplane that's going to land in a few minutes? We glanced at the
two men, on their chests were the silver wings of the Army Airborne
Infantry.
Toni stood up and came to attention, he was so cute in that dark,
short skirted suit, cream blouse and ruby necklace, standing stiffly,
announcing, "It sounds like a plan Sergeant Major."
I quickly rose to my feet and declared, "Count me in, Sergeant
Major."
The General looked Dave, nodded his head and said, "You have some
fine troops here, Sergeant Major, I'll get things rolling on my end
and keep you informed, good day."
Dave stood as General McFarland left his office. "This assignment
will take about three weeks, minimum and will involve some physical
training. So, start jogging in your boots, you'll need to be
prepared. And thanks for volunteering. Tomorrow, I want the entire
team here for a meeting. I'm sure Sgt. Merkel is going to be
thrilled. Dismissed."
I looked at Toni on the way out of Dave's office and whispered, "What
have we done?" Toni smirked, "Toughen up, sissy."
---------------------------------------------
The next morning we drove to the Pentagon's motor pool area, where we
had kind of a personal parking spot. We had breakfast in the
cafeteria and wandered into the office by 08:00. Dave was already
there and waved us over to his office. Rick and the video guru's
were seated around the conference table.
"OK, the girls have agreed to this project so hold you peace until
I'm finished. This coming Saturday, we, yes I am going to be there
with you. We'll need all of brass and braid we can get to pull this
off. General McFarland has already greased the wheels a bit. We are
going to Fort Benning, to the Airborne Parachute School. The goal is
for our girls to get their jump wings."
Rick, Jeff and Mason all choked on their coffee.
Continuing, the Sergeant Major said, "General McFarland got our gals
into the next class, starting Monday next. The five of you will have
a vacant floor of a barracks in the jump school as your billet. You
will all be issued chow cards for the mess hall the school uses.
Sgt. Merkel will the NCOIC as usual, but I will be around as much as
I can be to add some heft to your authority, Sergeant. The school is
actually enthused about us being there. They obviously follow us on
Facebook. I have been through jump school and know that it is a very
intense three weeks. One advantage, the Air Force has agreed to fly
you down to Georgia after the very good reviews you have given them
about your previous flights. Incidentally, the same flight crew will
take you down, but they will not be hanging around for three weeks.
We need to do a little preview training to prepare everybody for
their role. So, we will practice at Fort Myer, the 3rd Regiment has
offered to provide any assistance that they can offer. Questions?"
Rick raised his hand, "Sergeant Major, you and General McFarland are
seriously going have our bread and butter jump out of airplanes?"
Jeff and Mason laughed, nervously. Toni and I were sickly silent.
Dave chuckled and replied, "The hard part of this school is the pre-
jump training. Anybody with a hundred bucks can parachute out of a
plane with fifteen minutes of instruction. The difficult part of
parachute jumping is that it is not a natural activity. In reality,
it's actually quite easy. The Airborne School will not allow you to
show up with a C-Note and jump. This, like all of the other schools
you have covered this summer is a military activity. Also, they are
a very snooty bunch down there at Benning and they don't suffer
tourists."
Jeff raised his hand, "Sergeant Major, how much access to the
training sites will Mason and I have for video?"
"Good question, Jeff. You and Mason will have full access to follow
and video Randi and Toni throughout the training schedule, including
the jumps. There will be five of those in week three."
My heart was in full palpitation at this point.
Rick again, "Sergeant Major, what do you have in mind as a training
schedule for the rest of this week?"
"Running, in boots and some close order drill," replied Dave.
"That's about it. Figure an hour or so in the morning and the same
in the afternoon. That includes all of you." Looking around the
table, there no hands raised so Dave adjourned the meeting.
---------------------------------------------------
Our flight down to Fort Benning was uneventful, chatting with the
disbelieving aircrew. They came to the conclusion that Toni and I
were certifiably insane for volunteering for jump school. We were
met at the airfield by the First Sergeant of the training company we
were assigned to. He told us that the third floor of the barracks
was currently unoccupied so Toni and I were to billet in a squad room
and the Signal boys in another. Rick was to take the floor chiefs
room. We had no problem sharing the shower, except that the boys
erection problems when we did our toiletries in our panties and
sports bras.
Our first week was running, physical training, classroom and learning
how to land and roll. By the end of the week we were 'bruises are
us'. The second week was dropping from the training tower, parachute
packing and more jumping from platforms and rolling. After our
Initial trip to the mess hall, our fellow soldiers treated us like
one of the troops. They were probably a good deal more polite than
usual. Jump week, we loaded onto an Air Force C-130. Jeff, Mason
and Rick had participated in the first weeks of the schools regime
and were being allowed to jump for qualification. Mason and Jeff
were going try and get some video of Toni and I as we plunged to our
doom. Hooking up, checking the chute pack of the soldier in front of
you was nerve wracking, despite our shaky knees, we exited the rear
of the transport at a near run. The jolt of the chute opening was
anticlimactic, the ride down from twelve hundred feet was thrilling.
The landing was a bit hard, but I rolled nicely, recovered smartly
and collapsed my chute.
Bundling it up, one of instructors came by me, gave a big smile
swatted my butt saying, "I've been waiting two weeks for this moment,
well done soldier."
I was never so proud in my life.
Toni received the same treatment. We marched back to the training
area and had our critique and were dismissed for the afternoon. We,
our five man detail, went over to the post PX and had a few beers and
looked at the video Jeff and Mason had taken. There was some very
good stuff there. As per usual, we e-mailed the video and some
comments for our blog back to Dave for his review. About three beers
later, Rick's cell phone rang, it was Sergeant Major Beck. Rick put
the phone on speaker mode and we all listened to Dave's
congratulatory remarks. A very satisfactory day's work. We ran a
couple of more mile's, more classes and four more jumps, one at
night.
All five of us completed the school and were presented our
paratrooper wings. It was a big deal, Dave and General McFarland
came down to Fort Benning for the presentation and that caused quite
a commotion. The post commander and the school commandant preened
their way through the entire ceremony. We left for our barracks
right after the ceremony and packed up our gear, for we were flying
back to Washington with Dave and the General. At the airfield, 'our'
flight crew was waiting for us. In their tidy three man formation,
they saluted the General and being very respectful of the Sergeant
Major, congratulated the five of us. Dave whispered to me that due
to our excellent presentation of the Air Force and their air crew,
this aircraft and crew were unofficially ours. On the trip to
Andrews, General McFarland was exuberant. He must said 'outstanding'
fifty times.
Toni whispered to me, "This must mean we're going to be knighted."
I just giggled. Departing the plane at Andrews, the ground crew was
astonished by receiving an Army Lieutenant General, the Sargent Major
of the Army and five soldiers in fatigues, all wearing airborne
wings. The crew of our Blackhawk were equally impressed. Arriving
at Fort Myer, the fife and drum unit of the 'Old Guard' was waiting
and 'Ruffles and Flourishes' greeted us. The battalion commander and
just about every man of the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Regiment was
present. Toni and I were called in front of the battalion commander
and he congratulated us for attaining official jump status and the
attending regimental personnel all applauded. Very satisfying. The
Sergeant Major, obviously very pleased with the reception told the
five of to take the weekend off.
----------------------------------------------
We rode back to our apartment with Jeff and Mason. Grabbed our gear
and told them that a cookout Sunday was in order. Toni and I stowed
our bags, loaded our dirty fatigues in the laundry hamper, stripped
and took showers and slid into bed for an extended session of
debauchery. After a couple of hours of fingering, sucking and
jerking we were snapped of rhythm by a phone call from Rick.
"The Sergeant Major would like to take the team out to dinner
tonight," informed Rick. "I know your tired, but I suggest that
everybody attend. I think that this is important. Dress nicely, but
not formally. Be ready by 18:30 and I'll pick you guys up, OK?"
"Best offer we've had today," sighed Toni. "We'll be ready."
Thank God for bob's, they're relatively easy to repair and it would
feel good to doll up after three weeks of maleness. We met Rick and
Dave at the nice little Italian restaurant not far from our apartment
and had a couple of drinks at the bar. Jeff and Mason made twenty
one over the summer, so we were all legal, at least on paper. Dave
began by saying that the Fort Benning adventure was the last for this
season. Toni and I were going back to school and Jeff and Mason were
going to be discharged in the spring. Dave went on to embellish upon
how much the general was pleased with our efforts and he was already
planning for next year. Dave looked at our Signal Corps video team
and told the that General McFarland was going to formally ask them to
re-enlist. The military invites enlisted men to re-up. You could
volunteer, but it was unusual for enlisted personnel to be accepted
without a formal invitation. Dave went on to tell the boys the deal
would include the standard ten thousand dollars bonus plus a
promotion to Sergeant and an additional promotion to Staff Sergeant
as soon as they were time in grade eligible, also they would stay
with their current assignment for as long as practical. They had
five months to think it over. When and if they accepted, the bonus
is and promotion would be immediate.
Watching Jeff and Mason, you could almost hear the gears meshing.
Dave then turned to Toni and I were next. We were told that the Army
would pick up our books and tuitions at the U. of I.. Also, since we
were still active duty in the Army and would remain so for another
thirty two months, while attending to our studies, we would be TDY
[temporary duty] to the schools Army ROTC Corps. We could return to
our apartment in Urbana and we would receive an off post housing and
meals allowance in addition to our base pay. Dave looked at Rick and
the Signal boys and continued saying that General McFarland was
thinking about continuing our project at the university with the
existing team. Watching the guys, Toni and I could see that they
were intrigued by the idea of spending the winter out of Washington
DC. Over dinner, the conversation centered on life at the University
of Illinois.
Toni and I spent Saturday in debauchery and grocery shopping for
Sunday's cookout, of course Rick and Dave were invited along with the
Signal boys and we decided to do it up right. Steaks, corn on the
cob, potato salad and beer and booze. Everybody showed up before
noon and a proper alcoholic base was established and Toni started the
grill and I did the beverages. As icing on the cake, we were our
Daisy Duke shorts and flimsy lace trimmed silk tee's. After a couple
of rounds of adult beverages, Dave whispered to Toni and I that he
had invited a couple of guests and they would arrive in a very short
time. Toni was thrilled, and asked who?
"General McFarland and his wife," smiled Dave.
"Oh, shit," I gasped, "look at Toni and me. We look like teenage
sluts!!"
"All the better," smirked Dave. "Jeff, Mason," snapped Dave, "Do you
men have your video equipment with you?"
The two guys nodded, warily. "Go get a camera, your going to have a
working party."
Jeff headed for their van and almost collided with the general. Rick
was the first see the general, accompanied by a very attractive woman
wearing short shorts and sleeveless silk blouse, the General was
appropriately attired in shorts and polo shirt. Rick snapped to
attention nearly shouting, "Attention." Mason tripped and fell while
scrambling out of his lawn chair. Dave chuckled and presented a
casual salute. I blushed furiously. Toni merely asked what would
they like to drink?
Alice, the general's wife came smiling over to Toni and I and shaking
our hand's saying how pleased she was to met the prettiest
Specialist Fours in the Army. Meanwhile, Jeff was capturing all of
this on a mini cam. The General, of course was a scotch drinker and
fortunately we had a 750ml of Johnny Walker Black among the bottles
on the picnic bench. Alice was even luckier, we had a very nice
Mosel white wine in a cooler. Wine in hand, Alice circled Toni and
I, admiring the handiwork of nearly eight years of female hormones
had done to our bodies. After completing her inspection, Alice
turned to Dave and in a very sexy voice, admonished him for sending
Toni and I into the field among all those sex starved soldiers.
She then raised her glass turning to all of us congratulating us on
our successful completion of jump school. A true Army wife. Toni
had wisely held the steaks off the grill while we gave the general
and Alice a chance to catch up, beverage wise. Then Alice, with a
refreshed glass of wine, demanded to see what sort of hovel the Army
condemned us to. In our somewhat messy apartment, Alice gave it a
conditional stamp of approval. Viewing the bedroom and it's single
queen bed, she remarked, "This must be the coziest squad room in the
Army," and with a sly wink, ordered us back to join the men.
The party lasted into the early evening. Alice ruled over it like a
monarch. The General held court with Rick and the Signal Corps. I
watched this fascination and came to realization that the boys had
joined a club when they jumped out of perfectly good airplanes.
Dave, Toni and I were assigned the role of faithful courtiers to
Queen Alice. I got the distinct impression that Alice would like to
have Toni and I as her ladies in waiting. Dave, ever the diplomat,
kept Alice more or less on earth. The party lasted into the early
evening. By then, everybody had been overserved and had over eaten.
The General and Alice left first, per military protocol, followed by
Rick. Jeff and Mason stayed awhile, helping us clean up. They had
one more beer and we reviewed the video that had been taken by
everyone. The video was fantastic, but it could never be shown
publicly. Jeff slurred that he and Mason were going to re-enlist.
Both Toni and I squealed our approval and gave both of the Signal
geeks a very tonguey kiss. They left our apartment with high
erections bulging their shorts. An excellent cookout.
Monday came, our last day in Washington for this year. We donned our
dark charcoal suits, our pale yellow blouses, girly dark gray ties,
nude hose, garter belts, three inch stiletto fuck me black pumps and
best of all, pinned our paratrooper jump wings above our left
breasts. We were determined to strut our stuff on our last day. The
Sergeant at the security desk gave us a hand salute and every solder,
sailor and airman we walked past did a double take. When we arrived
at the office, everyone their turned out to wish us a genuine good by
and safe travel. When we got to our little office, Dave, Rick, Jeff
and Mason were there. They were excellent spirits, having just
reviewed the cookout video. Dave reminded us that the Army still had
the death penalty and that he had sent a copy of the video to General
McFarland by courier, so we were advised in the sternest manner that
this video was not to be made public. He indicated that the general
wouldn't care, but Alice would command the firing squad. We all then
went down to the PX cafeteria, had coffee and reminisced about the
summer. After an hour or so Dave broke it up, telling Toni and I to
pick up our orders and travel voucher from our personnel office and
to be safe.
When we were cut loose from our office, Toni and I made a quick trip
to 1st Battalion Supply and returned our helmets and thanked Sergeant
Anderson for all of his help and consideration. We dropped off our
rental car to the dealership and straightened the apartment and
waited for our Signal Corps chariot to take us to Reagan National.
We had four bags apiece, two suitcases, duffle bag with our Army
stuff and of course, our make-up kits. When we arrived at Reagan, we
were outed. A couple of ladies put two and two together and shrieked,
"It's Toni and Randi." So we had to be saved by airport security and
they hustle us through check in and past the airport security line.
Boarding our flight, we created the same commotion on the plane until
the co-pilot came back to the cabin and threatened to de-board anyone
not in their seats and had the flight attendants move us to first
class. Were we ever coddled on our flight to Abraham Lincoln Capitol
Airport in Springfield.
-------------------------------
Our dad's met us at the airport and after negotiating only a small
mob arrived at our childhood homes. After changing, Mom, Dad, my
sister Met and her husband Mark jumped into Mark's SUV and went to
the Abelli's where another small mob had gathered, including the
local media. Gracie and Denise and their parents, siblings and
lieutenant's were present. Mr. Ambelli had rented a large tent for
the back yard and had hired a caterer and the liquor flowed free. A
couple of hours into the party my phone rang, it was Dave. I chatted
with Dave for a bit until Toni butted in asking who was I talking to?
I told it was Dave, he just wanted to be sure we arrived safely.
Denise, hanging onto Lieutenant Tom's arm asked me who I was talking
to, when I replied, " Dave, you know, the Sergeant Major."
Tom blanched, "THE Sergeant Major? He called you at home?" "Yes," I
replied, "He just wanted to be sure we arrived safely."
Just then Toni called to his Dad and told him that he was wanted on
the phone and so was my Dad. Mr. Ambelli asked Toni who was on the
phone and Toni replied that it was Dave.
Mr. Ambelli had a puzzled look on his face, then he turned pale, "You
mean the Sergeant Major?"
Lieutenant Bill overheard the exchange and hurried over, dragging
Gracie with him. Mr. Ambelli switched the speaker mode on and we all
listened. The conversation was small talk, with Dave telling all of
the eavesdroppers what terrific soldiers Toni and I were and he
embellished how remarkable that it was that we earned or jump wings.
He went on to ask if by chance Toni and I played the flute or drums.
Toni and I shook our heads no and he past that on to Dave. Dave
replied that information would disappoint the 'Old Guard's'
Bandmaster, he was hoping to have us join the fife and drum unit for
a performance that we could add to our Facebook page. Bill and Tom
just stared at us. When the hoopla of Dave's phone call died away,
Denise and Gracie cornered Toni and I and said that they were getting
married next May and they asked us to be brides maids. We readily
agreed, then putting it out of our minds, we proceeded to get very
tipsy. The old soldiers tale about coming home after an extended
absence, after twenty minutes It's like you never left. There was
one thing about Army life that I really missed, not sleeping alone.
While picking up our orders at the Pentagon, Toni and I learned that
we had thirty days of paid leave coming, and since we didn't have to
report to the ROTC unit for eight days, we were encouraged to take
seven days leave to relax and take care of any personal business in
Illinois we might have. So we did. The next day we drove to Urbana
in Toni's convertible, taking our Army stuff with us a met with the
apartment manager and let him know about our double lives of students
and soldiers. The manager, being a Beta, had the exact look of
military astonishment that we come to so enjoy. We stopped by
Murphy's and received a very warm welcome. The whole staff had been
following our Facebook page and blog and were very excited about us
returning to U of I. We then spent some time shopping and with a
bottle of I W Harper and a six pack of Canadian beer, 'Moosehead',
settled into the new nighties we had bought, caught up in the art of
illicit sex. The morning, after an extended shower involving more
illicit sex, we drove back to Springfield. We spent the rest of the
week doing basically, nothing.
-------------------------------
The day after the Labor Day holiday, we donned our fatigues and with
our Army berets perched jauntily, we reported for duty to the Army
ROTC Company. Major Perkins was still the CO and was impressed with
our acquired military bearing. He asked for our class schedules,
telling us that we would become assistant instructors and that our
ROTC duties would worked around our class schedules. He also remarked
that our airborne wings would add a great deal of gravitas to our
personas. Our military duties were light and the Major was right
about the paratrooper wings insignia along with the 3rd Infantry
Regiment shoulder patch sewn into our fatigues did impress the
cadets.
Gracie and Denise had returned and while we socialized at great deal,
they were still sexually loyal to their beau's, at least as far as we
could tell. We did notice a great deal of giggling and moaning
emitting from their bedroom in the evenings. This routine stayed the
course until December. Major Perkins called us into his office and
told us that Sergeant Major Beck had called and said our services
would be required over the Christmas break.
"It seems that the Coast Guard would like us to do a video and blog
about them." Said the Major, "So, you are to report to the Air
National Guard base at the Champagne airport on December 29th, where
your aircraft will be waiting to transport you to Andrews AFB. You
have a personal aircraft?"
We tried not to giggle. "In a manner of speaking," I replied.
Toni then explained about the small Air Force passenger jet that we
used for our Facebook travels.
The Major was clearly impressed and continued, "At Andrews, you will
take on six additional passenger's, Lieutenant General McFarland ,
his wife, the Sargent Major of the Army, and three Army Sergeant's.
Where upon the Aircraft will proceed to US Coast Guard station, Key
West. This order also advises' the Specialist Fours to bring along
swimming costumes and suitable civilian clothing. Your seems that
you two are going on vacation with powerful friends. Wow!!!"
----------------------------------------------
We went down to Murphy's for a mild celebration and Denise and Gracie
joined us. Needless to say, envy was the day's watchword. To
mollify our roomies, we quickly changed the subject to their
Impending weddings plans, which were five months off. Gracie then
remarked on how unusual it was that Toni and I were dressed in
fatigues.
"You guys are the only Gamma's that I have ever seen in pants," she
wondered.
"Well, our schedules are so different, we rarely see each other
coming and going," I replied.
"We wear fatigues practically every weekday that we work at the
ROTC," added Toni.
Sean was tending bar and he threw in his opinion of our unbelievable
good fortune. We countered with a gem of information that he had
never met Alice. A comment that led to a heavily redacted
description of the cookout in Washington.
Sean, laughing continued, "I suppose that Alice has adopted her
husband's rank."
Toni answered, "Alice is a military brat, her daddy was a general and
she is emotionally well equipped to play the queen bee and with her
coming long indicates that she really enjoyed the cookout."
"Is there any chance that Gracie and I could come along?" asked a
hopeful Denise.
Toni and I looked at each other. "We could ask," murmured Toni.
"This is a working vacation and we would need a really good reason.
You know basically what we do on our trips, aside from the jump
school thing, none of them lasted more than three or four days."
I interjected, "Let's have another drink and talk about what reason
would induce the Army to take two civilian's along on an official
trip."
"I could tend bar," volunteered Sean.
"You would have a better chance," I retorted.
"Alice might buy this," whispered Toni.
"How so?" I asked.
"We have two very photogenic young officers wives to be, to show off
to the 'Coasties' and the queen bee might be up to chaperoning our
two innocents amongst the uncouth swabbies," answered Toni.
Mulling Toni's reasoning, I added, "Well, they certainly drink well
enough to keep Alice company. I'll call Dave in the morning."
Gracie and Denise were ecstatic and they kissed both of us, for the
first time in a year.
Sean then pronounced, "If you pull this off, I will stand you four
for a vacation bon voyage party." Surprisingly, Dave thought that it
was a great idea and he would run it by General McFarland. Three
days later Dave called and said the general was all for it.
--------------------------------
For the next month all of the inmates of our apartment in were
running amok, preparing for semester finals, Christmas shopping and
the day after Christmas, taking the girls along with us to pick up
their travel and motel voucher's. Major Perkins gave all of us a do
an don't lecture and instructed the girls about the hazards of
fraternizing with Air Force personnel. The next day we loaded Toni's
car with our stuff and with Toni and I in our fatigues and the girls
in stylish suits made our way to the Air National Guard gate of the
A. Lincoln airport. We showed the astonished gate guard our military
ID's an orders and the girls presented their temporary ID's and
accompanied orders and were interviewed by the Officer of the Day in
what passed for the passenger lounge. Once all of the Air Force
personnel were satisfied, 'our' flight crew collected us, remarking
about how their job was getting better and better. "Wait until we
get to Andrews and pick up Alice," remarked Toni, sneakily. The
girls had never flown before and were doubly excited. Once we were
at cruising altitude, the crew chief came into the cabin with bloody
Mary's and pastry, a first for all of us flying on this airline. The
pilot, a jaunty Chief Warrant Officer came into the cabin along with
the Staff Sergeant Crew Chief and helped themselves to the pastries,
sipped coffee and chatted for about an hour, thoroughly entrancing
Gracie and Denise. Before leaving for the cockpit, the pilot
announced that there would be a one hour layover at Andrews for
refueling and that we would be required to leave the aircraft during
the process.
--------------------------------
Landing at Andrews, the aircraft was directed to the passenger
terminal and we left the plane. Waiting for us in the terminal was
Rick. After a quick embrace and greetings, Toni introduced Denise
and Gracie. Rick was in his Class A's and we followed him to the VIP
lounge where we found Dave and the newly minted Sergeant's, Jeff and
Mason, who were having lunch. We quickly introduced the girls to the
guys and were seated at the table. A waiter immediately came to
table and asked if we wished to order. Dave suggested that we eat
something, as we were not going to arrive at Key West until about 5
PM. While we were eating, General McFarland, his Aide and Alice
arrived. Again, introductions around and could tell by her near
gushing, Alice was entranced with the girls. Turning to Toni and I,
the general handed each of us a large package.
"The Army Chief of Staff has approved a Class A uniform for Gamma's.
The Pentagon seamstresses fabricated two sets apiece for each of
you," pontificated the General, "You are both out of uniforms, so
please retire to the ladies lounge and repair that problem."
Toni and I hurried to the lounge, excited to see what the Army brass
came up with for a Class A uniform for Omega's. What we found was a
skirt and jacket in the standard dark green, a tan blouse, very
plain, a girly tie, clip on, nude pantyhose, and black pumps with a
two inch heel. Also included was a new beret. Our jackets had our
rank sewn on, black plastic name tag, 3rd Regiment shoulder patch,
and a new gleaming paratrooper jump wings pinned to the upper left
breast area. Of course the skirt hem was two inches above the knee
everything fit perfectly. There was no G.I. underwear, so our non-
regulation panties and bras had to suffice. We packed our fatigues,
G.I. tee shirt, socks, boots and somewhat battered old berets were
neatly packed into smallish carry-ons for future use. Being in our
new uniforms required that our make-up be upgraded.
We strutted into the main lounge to polite applause. Alice was
especially appreciating, commenting on how much better we looked
being out of 'Those horrid camouflage thing's.' An Airman came up to
us and asked for our carry-ons, then stopping dead in his tracks as
he noticed our jump wings on our jackets. He raised his eyebrows and
nodded respectfully. On the tarmac outside the passenger terminal,
our plane was waiting. The two Warrant Officer pilots, stood at
attention while General McFarland and Alice and the girls boarded
first, followed by CWO Meeks, the general's aide. Then came the
Sergeant Major, followed by Sergeant Rick, then Sergeant's Jeff and
Mason and finally, Toni and I to the low whistles of our gallant
pilots.
---------------------------------
The flight reached cruising and the Staff Sergeant Crew Chief entered
the passenger cabin pushing a small cart containing various bottles
of liquor and wine. He left that in the rear area of the cabin and
returned with a cooler containing beer, soda and ice. Alice asked
him if he was the bartender also. To which he replied that he was
not, he was the tote and carry guy.
Alice looked at her husband and said, "There's not enough room in the
cabin for everyone to self serve. Who's going to handle the
distribution of the refreshments?"
The General looked at the Sergeant Major and asked him to arrange a
detail to address the problem.
Dave looked around noted, "Let's see here, Sergeant Merkel, arrange a
detail for the distribution of the refreshments"
Rick, without hesitation replied, " Sergeant Major, we are faced
with the situation of lack of space to accommodate more than two men
to accomplish the General's order, so I have decided that the two
Specialists, being the junior in rank and the more agile of the
available personnel, also being familiar with the preference of the
troops and guests present, would be the best solution to solving our
problem."
CWO Meeks noted with satisfaction, "Sergeant Merkel, I believe that
you will make an excellent Aide de Camp. You identified the problem,
assessed your options and came to correct military solution."
General McFarland, grinning, spoke up, "Chief Meeks, as usual, you
have analyzed in the situation and have given public credit to the
detail NCOIC, well done."
Gracie and Denise sat there open mouthed while Alice explained just
what had happened. Dave sat back smiling, knowing that Alice was
going to be in seventh heaven tutoring the two future Army wives on
how things are done. Toni and I knew from the time the Crew Chief
showed up with the cart exactly who was going to do what. We went
about our stewardess duties taking orders by rank, of course. Alice
and the girls were after the General in being served and Alice
couldn't resist remarking on how nicely uniformed her airborne
stewards were and patted Toni on his nicely tailored, skirted ass.
Our duties helped to pass the time and we did manage to imbibe a
couple of whiskey's on the trip.
----------------------------------
We landed at Key West International and were met by a detail of
appreciative Coast Guardsmen. Our baggage was tossed into the back
of a pickup truck and the rest of us into two passenger vans. Our
pilots and crew chief taxied the plane to a nearby handstand for the
day as they were leaving the next day. We were taken to a smallish
resort on the gulf side of the key and of course, Toni and I, being
the lowest ranking slugs on this trip got the crappiest room. It was
actually quite nice except for the outstanding view of the highway.
Stowing our gear, we had the rest of the day off.
Newly minted Sergeant Jeff rapped on our room door advising us that
the queen bee had already set up shop in the resorts garden and our
presence was requested. Jeff also said that Alice was not a fan of
pretty Gamma's in Army green. Toni and I decided upon flowery, short
sun dresses. The flower print would hide liquor spillage and mini
hems would encourage unsolicited beverages. My God, we were getting
good at this girly approach. So getting into sun dresses was simple,
no hose and a quick make-up repair and we were ready to join Alice in
her assault upon distilled spirits.
As usual, Alice gushed, the sergeants erected and CWO Meeks sat back
to enjoy the show. Dave and General McFarland came into the garden
and joined us. Somebody forgot Gracie and Denise....OMG.....Rick was
detailed to collect them. As it turned out, the girls were prepared
and waiting in their room. So, Rick returned with them in a few
minutes. Alice immediately commandeered them and the four of us
began taking lessons from Alice in how Army wives drank. It wasn't
twenty minutes before the Captain in command of Coast Guard Station
Key West and the Stations Master Chief Petty Officer joined us and
immediately began to demonstrate the imbibing capabilities of the US
Coast Guard. The Captain made a feeble assault upon Alice's future
Army wives and was deftly torpedoed.
The thirsty crowd was beginning to overwhelm the waitress, so the
general, obviously impressed with our performance on the plane down,
volunteered Toni and I to assist in hustling the drinks to our
military comrades.
It became quickly apparent why the general was so eager for us to
help the waitress was that he was intrigued by the scantiness of the
hems to our sun dresses as his hand was a frequent patter of our
pantied bottoms.
Toni looked at me a grinned following the latest patting by a flag
officer, realizing that this was the only place in the United States
military that such an activity could take place.
Alice, smiling at her husband's mild transgressions, asked Gracie and
Denise about us. "The Specialist's were your high school boyfriends
I'm told." Gracie nodded and Alice attacked, "Tell me everything."
The resorts waitress along with Toni and I were keeping up with the
demand until a Lieutenant [Senior Grade] and a Marine Gunnery
Sergeant suddenly appeared.
The Lieutenant approached the general, saluted and informed General
McFarland that a Captain Jensen, Commandant of Naval Air Station Key
West was interested in joining the party. The General, a firm
believer in the concept of 'the more, the merrier', immediately
acquiesced. Our party, beginning with ten, the Coast Guard making
twelve and the Navy now reinforcing it to fourteen professional
drinkers, began to overwhelm the staff.
The shift manager of the resort appeared and began apologizing for
the lack of staff, but the Navy Captain cut him short and said that
he would have ten sailors here in fifteen minutes to handle the
military and his three waitresses could return to servicing his
guests. The manager accepted and the resorts waitress, along with
Toni and I made some three hundred dollars in tips before the sailors
arrived.
The senior officers huddled and Captain Jensen asked if Toni and I
could do a segment at the Naval Air Station? General McFarland
replied that ten minutes ago he could have, but reminded the Captain
that he had dismissed the resorts staff, which, incidentally included
his two Specialists that were the objects of the show.
Confused, Captain Jensen said, "The two girls in the sun dresses?"
McFarland nodded, "Those are the babe's." Smiling, General McFarland
ordered, "Merkel, go round up those two before they seduce the
entire Key."
Rick found Toni and I in the lounge, with the waitress dividing the
tips. "Ladies, the General wants you front and center ASAP," barked
Rick.
"He can wait," snapped Toni, "we're busy dividing our tips with
Margie."
"You two are the Facebook girls aren't you," said Margie.
"That's us," I replied.
"That's Sergeant Rick, he destined for big things and he's single,"
added Toni.
'Margie was a looker,' decided Rick, but the General was more
important.
Margie eyed Rick, "When do you get off?" asked Margie.
'Not often enough,' thought Rick. But, he smartly replied, "Never,
but I am very sneaky."
Margie commented, "I'm free in an hour, and I usually take my shift
drink here."
Toni said, "There is an invitation Sergeant."
Toni and I took our cash to Ronnie the bartender and he appreciated
the change so Toni and I stuffed the 3 fifties apiece into our bra's
and went to face the General.
"Specialists, this is Captain Jensen of the Naval Air Station Key
West and he has a request," pontificated General McFarland.
"Err....soldiers, I am here to officially request upon behalf of the
Department of the Navy, that you do a Facebook program about the
training program here at Naval Air Station Key West," said Captain
Jensen.
Toni and I were suppressing giggles as was the stern faced Gunnery
Sergeant as his Commanding Officer pleaded his request before two
Gamma's in very brief sun dresses. Alice was watching the
proceedings with a great deal of interest, while providing syllable
by syllable commentary to Gracie and Denise. Our answer was forgone,
of course we would.. After all it would add to our time in Key West.
-------------------------------------
The next morning was blustery and the gulf was in heavy chop, as the
Coasties phrased it. We were assigned to what called a Rapid
Response Boat. It had a crew of four and room for four passenger's.
As our compliment consisted of four, Toni, myself and our two Signal
geeks, a second RRB was assigned to us. As soon as we all boarded
the forty one foot vessel, the CPO [Chief Petty Officer] in command
said that we already had business.
Apparently, a cabin cruiser had engine problems and was adrift about
ten miles out in the gulf, from the Station. Off we went. Our tiny
flotilla of two RRB's headed out into the heavy chop. We bounced
about in spite of being strapped into our seats. In about forty five
minutes we located the pleasure boat. It was listing badly and of
course, the information about the number of people aboard the craft
was incorrect. There were ten souls in peril, not the six apparently
reported. It was decided that the accompanying RRB would take seven
and we would take three. A third RRB would be dispatched from the
Station to deal with the cruiser.
As the seas were too rough to approach the cruiser, a life line was
fired to boat. This was all very exciting video. Our partner RRB
took their seven, one at a time, onto their boat. We stood by and
when the other boat was loaded, retrieved the life line and our
customers, three young women and two ankle biter dogs. The dogless
young lady was towing a large net bag containing two large water
coolers.
Once the girls were retrieved, the one with the two coolers said, "I
just had to save the daiquiris."
It was all very exciting. One of girls looked at Toni and I and
exclaimed, "We've been rescued by Randi and Toni!"
Our trip back to the Station was done at a much slower speed, for
safety and comfort.
The Coast Guard CPO would not allow the girls to partake in the
rescued daiquiri's as he so quaintly put it, "American warships were
'dry' while at sea."
We got great video and interviews that morning. The Station
commander was ecstatic with the video and interviews. Deeming our
mission accomplished, the Coast Guard released us from any further
obligation. That evening, the owner of the cruiser invited our
entire party to dinner, our Florida vacation was off to a terrific
start.
------------------------------------
We returned to the resort and showed General McFarland and Dave our
footage and they were more than satisfied with the package. The
General said that our Navy gig was three days off, so he told us to
enjoy ourselves. So, we ditched our soggy fatigues and after an
enjoyable shower together, Toni and I donned our Daisy Duke's and
dressy tee shirts and went into the hotel's lounge. We received a
suitable reception [bulging crotches] from Mason and Jeff and ordered
daiquiris.
About a half an hour later, we were joined by Alice and the girls.
They had been shopping and were not aware of our dinner invitation.
Jeff showed the ladies the video from the mornings rescue on his
tablet, they were very impressed. Alice asked us what did we plan to
wear for dinner? I told her that we had brought along new LBD's.
Chiffon and lace numbers, with mid thigh hems and three inch heels.
Gracie and Denise looked at Alice and Alice knew exactly what had to
be done, "The girls and I need a few items to get for dinner," she
said.
The three women abruptly left the bar. "What was that all about?"
asked Mason.
Toni laughed, "They're going shopping again. I think that they feel
that they have to upgrade their wardrobe for dinner."
Jeff looked at me, confused, "The best Mason and I have is decent
slacks and shirt, is that OK?"
"That will be fine," I said. "Women dress for each other. You guy's
could come in bib's and no one would care."
With that reassurance, the two sergeants ordered another beer. Rick
then wandered into the lounge and joined us. "The General and
Sergeant Major are very pleased with the mornings work," he said.
Turning to Jeff and Mason, "Great video. The rescue is the best
thing you've gotten since the jump school stuff. Actually, better."
We beamed. Rick ordered two beers and Toni looked askance at Rick.
"Two fisted drinking this afternoon, Sarge?" asked Toni.
Rick laughed, "No, Chief Meeks is joining us." CWO Meeks walked into
the lounge and added to the rounds of congratulations for Gamma team.
The Chief looked at Toni and I and asked, "The General wants to know
if you have suitable civilian attire for dinner this evening?"
I nodded, "Toni and I are always prepared, Sir."
Meeks smiled and said, "That puts you a step ahead of Mrs. McFarland
and her entourage. Your foresight will be appreciated by the
General." Privately, Meeks was reassessing his opinion of the
Gamma's.
Meeks then motioned to Rick to join him at an empty table for a
private conversation.
----------------------------------
"Sergeant, last night I thought of a shortcut for you to Warrant
Officer status," said CWO Meeks.
Rick listened attentively.
"I ran this by the general this morning and he was in full
agreement," continued Meeks. "How do you feel about learning to fly
helicopters?"
Rick sat back in his chair, astonished. Army pilot school's were
very restrictive in their recruiting and you do have to apply, go
through the physical, etcetera, etcetera and he had done none of
these.
Meeks, seeing Rick's pause, quickly added, "The General has set you
up for the physical and the various tests as soon as we return to
Washington. If you pass and I have no doubts about that, you will be
assigned to the next chopper class at Fort Rucker. Should you
graduate, you will automatically become a CWO 1 and therefore skip
Warrant Officers School and go directly to active duty with a line
outfit for two years. You will then be assigned to the General
Officers Aide School with the caveats of being airborne and pilot
qualified. You would most likely go to the top very rapidly. What
do you think?"
"I'm game," said Rick quietly.
"Excellent," replied Meeks, "and keep this to yourself until you
qualify for flight school, OK?"
Rick just sat there for a second and said, "Thank you, Sir."
---------------------------------------------
A limousine picked us up at 7:00 PM and we were met at the
restaurant's entrance by the Ma?tre 'D and escorted to a private
dining room where Mr. Van Dyke greeted us. The General and Chief
Meeks were in their Class A uniforms as were the three Sergeants,
apparently Mr. Meeks had determined the evenings dress code. Alice,
the girls and Toni and I were in various designs of LBD's.
Mr. Van Dyke asked where the two Specialists were? The three young
women who were rescued by the video team's boat rushed by him and
hugged us.
Confused, Mr. Van Dyke looked at the General and he grinned slyly,
"Specialist's Thomas and Ambelli are Gamma's and for dinner I have
permitted them to dress.....more appropriately."
Recovering adroitly, Mr. Van Dyke shook hands with the video team and
Alice and the rest of our party. Dinner was expensively exceptional.
The true hero's, the Coast Guardsmen, were still at the bar swapping
lies with the Captain and steward of Mr. Van Dyke's disabled, but
recovered yacht. Mr. Van Dyke thoroughly enjoyed spending several
thousand dollars while hobnobbing with a Lieutenant General while his
wife was charmed by Alice. Toni, Gracie, Denise and I chatted with
the Van Dyke daughter's and their two college friends. Chief Meeks
and our three Sergeants sat back and watched the show while the
Coasties returned to the bar with the yacht crew. The party broke up
at about midnight and we night capped at the resort's lounge. Alice
finally found time for Toni and I and complimented us on our dresses.
She also indicated that she had plans for all of us girls for the
next two days. Wonderful?
--------------------------------------
As it turned out, hanging with Alice and our former girlfriends was
rather enjoyable. We shopped, sunbathed and toured local bars. It
was a very girly deviation from our usual Army routine. Key West
lived up to it's reputation as the several gay shops had a delightful
assortment of toys that Toni and I had not conceived of. We
especially appreciated the vibrating dildo's with wall hunting
suction cup's. We played several variations of sexual domination in
the shower with the device firmly embedded in our willing rectums.
We loved the morning brunches wearing our bikini non-swimwear. Toni
and I displayed our taut Army bodies, particularly our boobs, which
were more displayable than either the genetic girls attributes. Toni
and I knew how to tuck our manly packages discreetly even in the most
skimpy panty. The predominantly Latin beach boys literally hovered
around our party. Grand Matron Alice loved every second of it.
Alice whispered, "If those hyper sexually charged boys knew what you
two had hidden in your bottoms, they would crap their lycra briefs."
Toni wasn't so sure. "I bet that they are as queer as a three dollar
bill. They are very cute, however."
I asked Toni if it would be worthwhile corralling a couple of them
and stretching their bottoms. Denise and Gracie turned beet red at
the thought. Alice, nodded approvingly.
Leaning across the table, Alice looked Gracie and Denise in the eye
and said, "Ladies, these two Gamma's are out of your league. You do
not want to mess with paratroopers in bikinis, they will humiliate
you in ways you cannot imagine."
In that sentence, Alice saved Toni and I from the dreaded fate of
being bridesmaids. Not to mention the fact that it would be
unsuitable for the brides to have given their virginity to two of the
bridesmaids. Alice gave Toni and I a sideways sly look.
-------------------------------------
We spent our two free days doing basically, nothing. We shopped a
bit, bar hopped and just being idle sissies.
We were idling on the resort patio with Jeff and Mason when Toni
asked the men, "Why did you guys re-up?"
Jeff paused and then responded, "The Sergeant Major had a talk with
us. He said that General McFarland was very pleased with our efforts
and told Beck that if he could get us to re-up, he would see to it
that we would get our stripes....and the ten grand, of course."
Mason laughed, "Sergeant Major Beck sweetened the offer by offering
us a permanent detail with you two. Jeff and I are a couple of
morons to take the bait. Beck also said that we could expect summary
execution if we in any manner had what he termed as "inappropriate"
activity with you guys."
"Summary execution?" I giggled.
Mason taking a swig from his beer bottle said, "The Sergeant Major
gave us a graphic description of the place and method. We would be
drawn and quartered on the Third Infantry Regiment's parade grounds."
Toni gasped.
Jeff added, "We would be marched out to the grounds accompanied by
the Fife and Drum Corps playing some traditional death march."
Mason jumped back in, "Yeah, we would stripped naked and Alice would
personally castrate us with a dull butter knife."
Toni and I were quite wide eyed by now.
Laughing now, Jeff added, "I was to be first, since I'm the oldest.
I'm three months older than Mason."
Mason got up and walked around our table holding his crotch and said,
"Then we would be spread out on the ground, each our remaining
extremities would be fastened by rope and each rope would fastened to
the harness of a one of the caisson horse's and each horse would be
whipped by the General, CWO Meeks, Alice and the Sergeant Major until
our arms and legs were torn from our bodies."
Toni was aghast. "They can't do that!"
"Oh yes they can," deadpanned Jeff. "That's why they call it
'Summary Execution'. They need the Fife and Drum Corps present to
provide the drum, for the Drum Head Courts Martial."
I was laughing by now, but Toni had not quite yet caught the spoof.
"Enough," I said.
Mason sat back down saying, "You don't think that good old Dave
wouldn't do something like that if he caught anyone messing with his
favorite sissies?"
"Your quite right Sergeant. Good old Dave is quite protective of
Alice's favorite Gamma's."
Jeff and Mason had snapped to attention while Toni and I quickly
followed suit as General McFarland stood few feet away holding a
glass of bourbon.
"May I join the party?" he asked. Toni finally got the joke.
Chief Meeks soon joined us on the patio with Gracie on his arm,
followed by Rick and Denise with the grand entrance made by Alice on
the arm of the Sergeant Major. A platoon of bus boys and waiters
descended to rearrange tables and take orders. The Ma?tre 'D
appeared to create order out of the chaos.
"Mason, why don't you relate the conditions of your re-enlistment to
good old Dave and my wife," ordered the General.
Toni and I could barely contain our laughter as Mason started with
his excellent imitation of a fish out of water.
Sergeant Major Beck pulled a chair out for Alice and once she was
properly seated looked at Mason and said wryly, "I am glad that you
Sergeant Jenkins took my advice to heart."
The ever nosey Alice asked me, "What advice was that, dear?" I told
them about drawing and quartering and Alice looked sternly at the two
Sergeants and pronounced, "I have done three of those with the
Sergeant Major and they take quite a while to complete."
Jeff and Mason started to laugh, I joined In and Toni looked pale.
Alice, having established her dominance, let everyone relax and we
set about doing what the Army does best, drink to excess.
The next morning, Toni and I frolicked a while before donning our
Army stuff and we jumped into the van that Jeff and Mason had secured
and followed the Navy staff car containing the General, CWO Meeks and
the Sergeant Major to Naval Air Station Key West on Boca Chica Key.
We were met by the Navy Stations CO and the ever present Marine
Gunnery Sergeant.
He explained the mission of the Station and asked General McFarland
what would he like to see? The General deferred to Rick saying,
"Sergeant Merkel is in charge of this detail and I think that he can
outline what our Facebook page is all about."
The Navy Captain was adroitly placed in the service of an Army Buck
Sergeant, CWO Meeks was quite proud of his boss.
Rick explained that our mission was to inform the female relations of
the enlisted men of their boys duties.
The Marine Gunny whispered to the Captain that he had a good idea of
what we were looking for, thus relieving the Captain of his awkward
position in the chain of command.
CWO Meeks thought to himself, 'Well done, Gunny.'
With military hijinks concluded, the Gunny hustled the five of us off
to the maintenance area where many of the EM worked. The Gunny
introduced us to the daily grind of keeping aircraft in flying
condition. That was followed by visiting the Ordnance area, were the
air to air missiles and other munitions were stored and maintained.
We watched 'helos', helicopters in naval parlance being refueled,
I'm sure that the Gunny would think that the 'dog faces' would be
awed by such a complex operation.
To be fair, the Naval Air Station was a very busy and complex place.
We did get some great interviews once the sailors realized who we
were. After noon chow, we saw a good deal of the ordinary daily
routine that all servicemen preform and more interviews.
The one event that stood out was a sailor who had his tablet with
him, went onto our Facebook page and he was passing around to his
buddies video of Toni and I making our first jump at Benning. The
sailors watch the video and then point at us. Several approached
Toni and I asking for autographs, presumably for their mothers and
sisters.
Because the video we made was so mundane, we concentrated on the
interviews, which were very good and I think that with 'action'
video's running as a background made for compelling viewing for their
female family members. We had the Facebook work nearly completed by
dinner and we presented our 'masterpiece to Dave and the General.
The men were not particularly impressed, but Alice raved. She
thought that it the best piece we done yet, going right to the
mothers hearts.
General McFarland looked at the Sergeant Major and said, "What do we
know?"
Toni and I excused ourselves early from the group and went to our
room, showered, changed into our flimsiest nighties and groped and a
lot of other stuff until we were out of sexual gas.
-------------------------------------
The next morning we had breakfast with Alice who was unusually
subdued. She was lamenting our last day in Key West.
"This was the finest vacation that I have had in years," she said.
"I so enjoyed sharing it with all of you. I told the General that
the Army needs more sissies like you two."
Toni spilled his coffee. Alice went on, "Do Gracie and Denise ever
get after you two for having better bodies then they have," she
grinned.
I told Alice that the matter has come up from time to time, but that
since they were girl girls, they always intimidated us into denying
it.
It was Toni's turn to go after Alice in a good natured way. "You
know, we could tell you what hormones we take and if you used them in
much smaller amounts, it could help in sustaining your own incredible
attributes," he commented.
Alice brightened considerably at that suggestion. "How do you take
your meds?" she asked.
Toni went on, "Some are by injection and some, orally. The best way
is to have the pharmacist prepare them in one large oval tablet and
insert the tablet into your bottom, of course you need to follow the
tablet with a small butt plug to keep your bowel from expelling the
tablet,"
Alice looked at Toni as if he was a very pretty lunatic. "You
sissies are very anally oriented, aren't you," smiled Alice.
Toni replied, "If you want outstanding sissy boobs and butt, you have
to walk the sissy mile."
Alice, ready for that foil, replied, "How many miles of intruders
have traveled through your entrance, my dear?"
Toni, equally ready, "Not nearly enough, Mistress. Not nearly
enough."
Alice sat back with an evil smile, "Toni, my luscious and very horny
sissy, I am going to fuck your bottom to jelly someday. Maybe the
next time the General finds a war that he can participate in. That
goes for you too." Alice punctuated that statement by cupping my
left breast.
Toni smirked, "Do Specialist Fours get the death penalty for having a
frolic with a General's wife?" "Sweet cheeks, you won't be fucking
me. Your going to be locked into your darling chastity devise. I'm
sure that you are well experienced in rubbing your special gland
against hard objects."
Toni now blushed, "You've been talking to the girls!" I turned red
at that revelation.
"By the way, this is not just a little idle chatter," said Alice.
"The girls told me all about your trysts in your apartment and in
high school. They both agreed that you two were very accomplished."
"Your serious!" I squeaked.
Smiling with her eyes, Alice held out her hand, "A card with your
phone number, please."
I dug into my purse and robotically handed a card over. Alice stood
and went to each of us and we received her tongue into our wiling
mouths. As Alice walked off the patio, mentally girding her loins
for future battle.
Toni looked at me and whispered, "This conversation stays right
here."
-----------------------------------------------
Toni, Jeff, Mason, Rick and I lounged around at an old bar downtown
that afternoon. We made idle chit chat, thinking that the Coast
Guard stuff was really good and the Navy was so, so but, Alice may be
right and it may play very well with the mom's. We all laughed when
Rick said that we worried about our ratings like TV producers.
Actually, he was right. We had this intense conversation about
keeping our audience and our cushy jobs. A couple of older ladies
stopped by our table and asked if we were the two Gamma's on
Facebook. I reluctantly nodded and they gushed their appreciation
for showing the women of America what their men had done for three
years of their lives.
After the women moved on, Rick stood and made an announcement. "The
rumor is, that we are taking our road show overseas next year, by
that I am talking about Eastern Europe and possibly the Mid East."
Jeff and Mason nodded, "That would some much needed intensity to our
video and blogs," said Mason.
Jeff added, "The Coast Guard stuff was great, especially the rescued
cooler of booze."
Rick laughed, "The only thing about that is rescuing rich civilians
from their yachts gets old after a couple of episodes and if you
haven't forgotten, we're the face of the Army. We blow up yachts and
machine gun the survivors, not tow them to port and party with them."
"It was a good party," said a defensive Toni.
General McFarland has this trip in mind, I don't think that the
Sergeant Major is all on board yet," replied Rick.
We mulled Rick's announcement over for a few seconds and ordered
another round. The group slowly bar hopped back to the hotel and
Dave found us as we entered the hotel's foyer.
"Directly to the patio, troopers. General McFarland has a
congratulating banquet in the works for his favorite soldiers."
The sergeant's obeyed Dave immediately, but Toni and I went to the
ladies room for a much needed pee and make-up repair. The General
was into a pontificating mood and he was saying that we had pretty
much mined the US scene out and that we would be going to several
Army outposts in the Baltic Republics, Poland and the Ukraine next
summer. McFarland went on, instructing everyone to get range time
with their M4's over the winter.
--------------------------------------
"Lover, it looks like we are going into action next summer," breathed
Toni into my ear.
I kissed him and said, "We're going to visit some line outfits,
nothing more and after all, we're Airborne of the First Battalion of
the Third Infantry Regiment. We fear nothing," I said without much
confidence.
"I'll be sure to bring my fife and don't you forget your drum," said
the now defiant Toni.
We giggled and smooched. "We'll need new lingerie, you realize,"
whispered Toni.
"I love shopping for lingerie, but no camo," I replied, clutching
Toni's hardening cock.
"OK, pastels only, just for you," grunted Toni as he came in my hand.
Toni returned my favor with his mouth.
"You know, I'll bet that Alice has told the girls the same thing that
she told us. I'll bet that bitch has it in mind to fuck our whole
household and humiliate the shit out of us to boot." I said to
Toni's bobbing locks. Finally, cumming in Toni's mouth, I continued
my fantasy about Alice.
"I have no doubt about that," gagged Toni as he swallowed my load.
"We have to find out if the girls have been solicited. We've ass
fucked them and they seemed to enjoy it, but no doubt, Alice's tool
is quite a bit larger than ours."
"You're right about that, maybe we should let them use 'Rodney' for
stretching exercises," I offered. "No need," replied Toni, "They
used a monster they call 'Bubba' on me one night. It's half again as
wide as the good old Rod."
"You fucked them?" I demanded.
"No, they fucked me. You were pulling Charge of Quarters at the ROTC
that night. Anyway, Bubba filled me up big time. They got Bubba in
to the hilt and it rested directly on my prostate and they milked the
shit outta me," confessed Toni as he licked his drying cum off of my
hand. Toni really likes cum.
-----------------------------------------------
Our trip back to Champagne was uneventful and the four of us were
glad to be back, despite the Illinois winter weather. That evening,
sitting around the kitchen table, Denise asked Toni and I if Alice
was a serious person?
"What do you mean by serious?" I asked. Denise looked at Gracie and
in a quiet voice said, Alice told Gracie and I that the next time the
General was out of Washington for a couple of weeks that she was
going visit us."
Gracie amended Denise's statement with, "Denise means visit us and
fuck us."
Toni looked at me and replied, "Mrs. McFarland is a very serious
person. She the same promise to us." It my turn to butt in, "Alice
wants to attend your weddings and she wants the satisfaction of
knowing that she has fucked both of the brides, before their new
hubbies have."
Both girls eye's flew wide open. "She want's you guys to fuck her?"
declared Gracie.
"No," said Toni, "she wants to fuck us."
Denise looked quizzical at me and asked, "What does the General think
about this?"
Getting up and mixing a fresh drink, "The General probably doesn't
care.....as long as it doesn't become public knowledge," I casually
remarked. "And, don't ever tell Tom and Bill. If Alice does you
two, they will have a guardian angel looking over their careers."
Toni added, "You can take it the bank that we will be seeing Alice
before the semester's over. So you will need to exercise good 'ol
Bubba between those very cute butt cheeks of yours. We, Toni and I,
would love to loosen you up, but as know very well, our hormone
enhanced peckers are not of suitable size to give you an adequate
stretching of what to expect."
-----------------------------------------
In early April...April made her appearance. Toni and I were on duty
at the ROTC offices when the Top Sergeant called us into his office.
Leaning back in his chair, First Sergeant Warren looked at us and
said, "There is an Alice lady that called and asked for Specialist's
Ambelli and Thomas to pick her up at the airport tomorrow morning at
11:30 hours."
I thought to myself, 'My God, that lady is bold.'
The Top continued, "I have heard of only one Alice who would have the
balls to call a Army Headquarters unit and demand chauffeur service
and name the servees. If I am correct in assuming that this Alice is
closely associated with a certain high ranking General Officer, just
nod." Toni and I nodded obediently. "Only you two and myself are to
know that 'Alice' is here in town, understand?" ordered the Sergeant.
"Now," he continued, "I assume that this is not a formal trip for
'Alice' and I further assume that she will require the company of you
two for the duration of her stay? Toni, you and Randi will pick up
our guest in your private vehicle and you will have an open pass for
the entirety of her visit here and...you will not allow her, under
threat of a Courts Martial, to get within five blocks of this office.
Is that clear?" We nodded obediently again. "Also, when you are in
the public company of 'Alice', you will be dressed in civilian
attire," added the First Sergeant. "Dismissed."
Toni and I about faced, exiting the Tops office and clamping down the
gleaming, waxed hallway in our fatigue trousers tucked into our spit
shined jump boots [We're Airborne, after all] we grimly made or way
to Murphy's. I called Gracie on the way and told her to round up
Denise and meet Toni and I there.
----------------------------------------------
The girls came into the bar shortly after we arrived. "What's this
all about?" asked Denise.
Toni looked at her and just said, " Alice." Sean brought four beers
to our table, setting them down asked, "You are a grim looking bunch.
Is there a national emergency? War, maybe?"
I looked at Sean and told him to get himself a beer and to join us.
We recounted our trip to Key West and Alice meeting the girls and
Gracie filled in the details concerning the purpose of Alice's visit.
Sean, nonplussed, asked if he could come along.
"Jesus Christ," whispered Toni, "Alice is the wife of an Army
Lieutenant General. We've talked about this place and she is sure to
want to come here. Discretion is the name of the game. If we can
get her out of town without her being identified, I'll suck your cock
behind the bar for a whole shift."
"Deal," replied Sean with an eager look. Toni reddened at the
acceptance of his offer.
Putting in my two cents worth, "There is a reasonable probability
that Alice will ask you to join in the fun." At this, Sean preened.
I added, "Is your rectum experienced at entertaining large dildo's?"
Sean expression changed dramatically.
Toni smirked, "You see, sweetie, Alice is the 'fucker' and the rest
of us are the 'fuckee's'. "
Gracie jumped in an looking at Sean, "Should General McFarland
discover that you have invaded Alice's very guarded cummy, you will
be publicly drawn and quartered." At that we all started to laugh.
Epic gallows humor.
------------------------------------------
Toni and I picked up Alice the next morning. We were in our civilian
'Class A's'. Our charcoal suits and heels. She gave us a quick
inspection, noting our proper make-up, hair and accessories. Deemed
suitable for her company, we left for our digs in Urbana. We got
Alice settled in and as both of the girls had labs this day, they
wouldn't be around until about four in the afternoon. Alice spent
time with drink in hand, inspecting our apartment. Noticing that
each of the two bedrooms had only one bed in each, Alice nodded
approvingly, "Very cozy," she remarked. She divided her wardrobe
between the two and she told us, "Why don't we all get into something
more comfortable?"
Toni looked her shyly, "Just how comfortable?" Alice, mixing another
drink replied, "Very, and keep your chastity's on."
Stripping in our bedroom I whispered to Toni, "She doesn't waste any
time, does she." Toni just smiled and got the lube tube. We changed
into short silk sleep chemise's and panties.
Locked and lubed, we started for the door when Toni said "Stop!
Thigh highs and garter belts."
I agreed and five minutes later two hookers paraded into the living
room. Alice, standing regally in tap pants and tee shirt regarded us
with approval. "Give me your keys," she ordered. She then had us
bend over and our bottoms were invaded by vibrating butt plugs.
Pulling our panties back into place, she said "Go mix yourselves
drinks and join me on the couch," cooed Alice.
Sitting next to Alice on the couch, she pulled us both close to her.
Kissing us one after the other, she breathed, "If you were mine, you
both would have tongue studs."
Toni pecked her on the nose and grabbing our hands, dragged me back
to the bedroom. Alice squealed with pleasure when we returned"" a
minute later, flashing our bar bells.
Toni stuck his tongue into Alice's willing mouth and tapped his stud
off the back side of Her Highness's teeth.
"Naughty girl, I have a much better place for that," whispered Alice.
I had slid off the couch and wormed my way between Alice's legs and
slid her tap pants off and onto the floor. Breathing heavily in
anticipation, Alice still kissing Toni, mumbled something about
afternoon delights as I attacked her clit with metallic delight. It
only took a few seconds and Alice was shivering with her orgasm, the
first of many to cum. Toni and I were both in extreme discomfort as
our cocks were fruitlessly trying to expand in their confinement.
Alice, recovering from her orgasm got up and kicking her tap pants
across the carpeting ordered, "OK, on your backs on the floor and
spread your legs, my pretties, I am going to get the General."
Lying on the carpeting, chemise hems on our bellies awaiting our
fate, we were groaning in pain when Alice returned with the tip of
her impressive strap on leading the way. She knelt by Toni first and
wrapped a lace choker around his neck and wrist restraints locked in
place. A thin silver chain was looped through the silver ring sewed
into the choker and attached to the wrist cuffs. Taking a small
cushion from the couch, Alice had Toni lift his hips and the sissy
grandson of Italian immigrants was left lying in obscene exposure as
Alice turned her attention to me. In a couple of minutes, Alice had
two Gamma sissies at the mercies of her whims.
She paraded around us with the dildo of her strap on bouncing
eagerly. She chose me first. Kneeling between my legs, she slowly
rolled my panties down my legs and threw them next to her tap pants.
Scooting forward on her knee's, Alice placed herself in attack
position. She slowly withdrew the butt plug, leaving the vibrating
bulb to torture my sphincter before removing the intruder. My
rosebud was at her mercy as she pressed the tube of lubricant into my
entrance and squeezed out a goodly dollop of the grease and inserting
two fingers, worked past my sphincter and proceeded to explore my
anal canal. Pausing on my prostate, she elicited an impressive spurt
of sperm from my imprisoned cock.
"Gracie was right about you Randi. You are a very eager sissy.
Sitting back, she turned her attention to her tool. Well lubricated,
she manuvered the tip to my entrance. My little inmate was numb by
now from it's futile attempts at expansion. As she pressed on, pain
became noticeable as my sphincter was stretched wider than it had
ever experienced.
'Relax, relax, relax', I commanded myself and my defense's were
breached. Slowly, Thank God, she pressed on and achieving maximum
insertion she leaned forward, my boobs being messaged and nipples
tweaked, she was admiring my best girly attributes.
She reached to her side, pressing a switch, the dildo began to
vibrate and wiggle. I saw stars. My wrists tugged fruitlessly at
their restraint as she slowly began to fuck my ass to jello. I
squirted several more times and then Alice shuddered to a spiritual
orgasm.
Collapsing onto me, Alice breathed, "You are one great fuck,
Specialist Thomas." Leaving me still impaled, Alice sat back and
unlocked my chastity. Enormously grateful, my willy snapped to
attention. "Toni, roll over here and give your roommate his just
reward and you can get a close up view of what's in store for you."
The rest of the afternoon was a gymnastics review as Alice did us
doggy style while we sixty nined. We broke off several times for
refreshments, with Alice mixing drinks while Toni and reposed on our
knees on the cushions, vibrators reinserted and giving the 'General'
the occasional kiss of adulation. Finally, at about 15:00 hours,
Alice declared victory and using a bag of ice to reduce us to total,
unconditional surrender, replaced our chastity's and released our
wrists, but she did not remove our choker's. She unstrapped her
weapon and stood over us while our tongue studs were put through a
final workout.
"Outstanding," she cried. "Let's get showered and dressed before the
girls get home."
Toni and I limped into our bedroom and gently tended to each others
ravaged bottoms. We showered, repaired our makeup and deciding on
short, pleated tartan skirts, long sleeved cotton blouses and
Japanese school girl leggings, we returned to our Mistress. Alice
was chatting with the girls in the kitchen when we made our entrance.
"Are they cute or what," declared Denise as we presented ourselves.
Alice commanded, "Give me twirl, I want to see your panties."
Obligingly, we did several as the women applauded in appreciation.
"Alice tells us that you two were quite entertaining this afternoon,"
smirked Denise.
Gracie looked at the thin necklace Alice was wearing and chortled, "I
recognize those keys you are displaying, Mrs. McFarland. They
wouldn't give them to us. How did you manage that?"
"Experience, my dear, experience," was Alice's haughty reply. "If
they were mine, I'd keep them. I would love to have these two
assigned to my household. I would have them prancing around in those
cute French Maid costumes and driving my guests wild. But alas, the
General would never permit it. These two militarized sissies are his
pride and joys. I would like to see his reaction to his favorites
busily moving about the house, skimpy skirted and with their Airborne
jump wings proudly shining on their left breasts."
Gracie and Denise were giggling like mad at the mental image.
--------------------------------------------
"We are dining out, I take it," asked Alice.
Denise looked Toni, "Murphy's? Sweetie?"
Gracie added, "Well, it's a college bar and they are certainly
dressed for it."
Alice laughed, "I would like that and I want to meet this Sean
person."
Toni and I curtsied clumsily and I replied, "As you wish , Mistress."
Gracie, looking at Alice, "You don't waste any time, do you?"
Alice, stood and ordered, "OK, girls get cleaned up and we'll take
Missy Toni's very nice chariot to your den of youthful inequity."
An hour later, Toni and I led the way to the buildings parking lot.
The chilly breeze instantly finding it's way beneath our brief skirts
while the women, snugly dressed in wool skirts and pantyhose, giggled
at our discomfort. Fortunately, it was early and a vacant parking
spot was available near the entrance to the bar.
---------------------------------------
Whistles greeted Toni and I made our entrance and Sean laid his
forehead on the bar hiding his laughter. The server on duty smiling,
asked Alice if the two school girls in our party were of legal age.
The ever haughty matron replied, "Yes, and very experienced too."
More hoots and applause from the patrons. After we were seated, Sean
came over to the table and introduced himself.
He looked at Toni and I and asked, "Is this recommended off duty
attire for our noble paratroopers?" referring to our somewhat brief
attire.
"Well, I like it," said a beefy vet, wearing an 82nd Airborne
sweatshirt and he winked at Toni and I.
"You two look absolutely adorable," said Alice. "And, I will not
mention a word about it to the General or the Sergeant Major."
Turning to Sean, Alice asked, "Sir, would you join us for dinner?"
Sean, obviously pleased agreed. "As soon as my relief arrives."
The excitement of our arrival died down, aside from several ROTC
cadets stopping by to greet us and everyone watching when Toni and I
walked to the ladies room. Alice was enjoying every minute of
experience despite the rare occurrence of her not being the center of
attention. Sean soon joined us and entranced Alice with his
commonality and Irish good looks. Fed, intoxicated and thoroughly
leered at, we left Murphy's three hours later. Alice, in high
spirits insisted upon a few night caps before she allowed Toni and I
to thankfully retire, without the keys to our chastity's. The night
was filled giggles, gasps and muted shrieks coming through the wall
that our bedroom shared with the girls.
-----------------------------------------
Breakfast was interesting, Gracie and Denise were the most well
fucked women we had ever seen.
Her Highness swooped into the dining area and sitting at the dining
table, between the girls just said, "Coffee, please, black. Also,
two slices of toast with butter and some berry jam, if you have any,"
she ordered.
I got up to fill the order, not out of any particular feeling of
obligation, rather to have a good visual of our female companions.
Gracie and Denise were still in night clothes and robes. They looked
like hell. Alice had obviously showered and donned a short corduroy
skirt and sleeveless sweatshirt, bearing ARMY across the chest.
Alice nodded a short thank you when I presented her coffee and toast,
along with a jar of somewhat expensive English gooseberry jam. Toni
and I sat side by side, in fighting trim, aside from some soreness in
our derri?re's and pinching of our tube encased cocks. Our knees
were primly closed together and exposed by our short skirts, plain
three quarter length sleeved blouses, light makeup and minimal
jewelry.
"Your girlfriend's were quite exciting last night," commented Alice.
"This has been a very invigorating trip thus far, but aside from that
bar, I haven't seen much of the local color. Would you boys mind if
you drove me around town to see the sites?"
Toni and I were somewhat taken aback, we hadn't been referred to as
'you boy's' for quite a few years. We left the girls to recover and
were herded by Alice to Toni's car.
----------------------------------------
We had driven about six blocks and Alice saw a Starbuck's. Let's
have some coffee, I have a couple of things to discuss with you two.
At with walk thru, the young girl order taker was mildly astonished
that three, well one woman and two very deceiving sissies all ordered
'black' coffee.
Finding a reasonably private area, Alice sat us down. "You two have
been wonderful and I want to thank you for your hospitality," began
Alice. "I am going back to Washington tomorrow morning and there are
some things I want you to be aware of. First, I want to relieve of
any idea's that I am some sort of sexual predator. I have been
married to the General for twenty-five years and I am his 'special
aide'. CWO Meeks handles all of the assessment's of military
personnel that deal with the General and I handle the 'interview's'
with their wives and girlfriends. Since you two fall in the gap
between those two groups and the fact that I have been intrigued with
you since we met at your cookout, I couldn't resist an in-depth
interview."
At this revelation, Toni and I wondered what a third degree
interrogation would be like. Alice went on, "When I discovered that
the two Army brides to be were your roommates, I couldn't resist
taking advantage of the opportunity. I am very pleased that you two
are quite the most feminine Gamma's in you private lives that I have
ever met. You would be surprised at the number of officer's that
consort with Gamma's and you are the best, in more ways than one. I
have something of a lesbian streak in me, so that explains me
screwing the shit out of your delectable roomies. As have you, I'm
told. Anyway, as far as I can tell, the girl's have the grit to
handle the considerable stress of being Army wives."
I asked Alice, "Just how much did Gracie and Denise tell you about
our 'relationship?'."
Alice laughed, "Everything, I am so jealous of them. Having you two
for themselves for what, four years?"
Toni and I turned red at Alice's casual revelations. "I do have news
for you guys. This coming summer's expedition to Europe will be the
end of your Facebook operations and that you will remain on active
duty here in Champaign. Sergeant Major Beck insisted that that you
permitted to complete your enlistment so that you would honorably
discharged and be Veterans Administration eligible for G.I. Bill
education and VA medical benefits.
"Wow," said Toni, "So, we can forget about West Point." Alice's eyes
widened and laughing out loud replied, "I wouldn't keep my hopes up,
sweetie."
I said, "I think, that is a wise decision. I feel that we have taken
our tour of military training has gone as far as it could go before
becoming outrageously redundant."
Alice added "The Pentagon thinks the same thing, but they have been
getting some mild pressure about opening the military up to women.
Getting involved in that fight, which us girls will lose, has no
upside's for you guys."
Toni interjected, "Changing the subject, the girls were going to
invite you and the General to their weddings. Have they mentioned
it?"
"As a matter of fact, they did and I told them to plan for a double
wedding. It's the General's idea. You will be back in country by
late August. The General has arranged for leave and transportation
for our young Lieutenant's for then and the wedding is to take place
in Springfield."
I added, "The General has quite a bit of pull, doesn't he."
Alice smiled, "The General is up for his fourth star and his
appointment as the Army Chief of Staff. This is privileged
information until it is publicly announced."
That certainly impressed the crap out of Toni and I.
Alice went on, "On last thing, I don't think that it would
appropriate for me to work the girls over two nights in row, so I
will be your guest in bed tonight." My sphincter gripped the stem on
my small butt plug in anticipation. After we left the coffee shop,
we drove around for a bit showing off the highlights of Champagne-
Urbana. We then stopped for an extended lunch listening to Alice
impart her selective view of the military. Then she dropped the
bomb.
"You know that Sergeant Major Beck is retiring in a year?" she said.
We sat there stunned for a minute and then realized that Dave was in
his early forties and he would have over twenty years service,
probably twenty-five when he retired.
Alice continued, "Dave will have twenty-five years in and he has
gotten to the top. There are no more mountain's for him to climb."
"So that and the General getting to the top is another reason for
discontinuing the Facebook," said Toni.
Alice nodded, "But, don't despair. You guys will be loading cannons
and jumping out of airplanes for eternity."
Wistfully, I said, "As weird as this sounds, I'm going to miss the
Army."
Toni laughed, "Yeah, but keep in mind we had a very good gig in this
deal and we took three very nice guys along with us."
"The General and the Sergeant Major also realize that, Toni and the
boys showed up, manned up and earned everything that they are and
will get," added Alice.
"The Sergeant Major is a very special man, isn't he?" I said to
Alice.
"You don't know the half of it. Sergeant Major Beck is an Alpha who
turned down an appointment to West Point and didn't wait for his
draft notice. He walked into the nearest Army Post and enlisted.
That is unheard of."
Toni and I sat open mouthed at this revelation.
Alice went on, "The General met the Sergeant Major during the first
Gulf War. Dave was a squad leader in the 24th Infantry Division and
the General was his Butter Bar Platoon Leader. Needless to say, they
hit it off from the start. When the fighting ceased, The now First
Lieutenant McFarland asked Dave to apply for Airborne jump school
with him. After jump school they went on to Ranger school and the
General and I married....Dave was best man."
-----------------------------------------------
The silence at our table was broken by another of Toni's, "Wow, I
could use another drink."
Alice waved at the server and we were refilled. Alice leaned over
the table and in a conspiratorial voice continued, "Let's talk
reality. You guy's being Gamma's face shall we say, an uncertain
future. I have no doubt that after you graduate that you two will
land on your feet, but I am going to suggest a sure thing. Dave,
after he retires, is going to become the liaison training officer of
the 32nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team of the Wisconsin National Guard
with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. The Governor of Wisconsin asked
for him specifically as Dave is originally from the state. His
office will be in Milwaukee because of its being the air transport
center for the Wisconsin Air National Guard units. After you two
graduate, Dave is going to ask you to join him as his staff."
We were stunned. "Dave asked me to run this by you two as a heads
up. He correctly realizes that your Facebook travels have acquainted
you with many of the aspects and missions of the various Army units
and how the troops think," continued Alice.
Would we be joining the Guard for this?" I asked. "No," replied
Alice, "you would be civilian employees of the Wisconsin National
Guard. I don't believe that they are ready for you two as uniformed
soldiers." Toni and I preened at that remark. "Well, that's the
plan as it stands. Think about it, it's a year and a half down the
road and things can change, but I think that it might be a great
opportunity for you." The next morning we dropped Alice at the
Champagne-Urbana airport and she thankfully gave us our chastity keys
back. We wouldn't see Alice again until the girls wedding.
-------------------------------------------
After the Memorial Day holiday, we reported back to Washington and
our much anticipated European trip. We had read in the news that
General McFarland received his fourth star and was now Army Chief of
Staff. A Major General Andrew Smith was now our CO. We reported to
Dave on the Wednesday morning following the holiday and Jeff and
Mason were in Dave's office. "OK, gang. We are off to report to
General Smith.
Once the formalities were dispensed with, General Smith gave us a pep
talk and then turned the meeting over to the Sergeant Major.
Dave looked at Jeff and Mason and asked point blank, "Which one of
you wants to be in charge of this detail. Sergeant Merkel is at Fort
Rucker, learning how to fly helicopters and so a new honcho is
needed. The Chief of Staff has authorized the new detail NCOIC be
promoted to Staff Sergeant, immediately. So which one of you gets
the poison?"
General Smith, enjoying this little play immensely, was sitting back,
admiring the Sergeant Major's skill. Jeff and Mason pointed at each
other simultaneously getting a chuckle from the General.
Dave looked Toni and I and asked, "Do either of you Specialists have
a quarter?"
I reached into my GI issue shoulder bag and rummaging through my
wallet, found a suitable coin.
Dave flipped the coin and looked at Jeff, "Call it Sergeant
Williams." Uncovering his palm, Dave said, "Good call, Staff
Sergeant, congratulations."
--------------------------------------------
A week later we started our grand European tour. We boarded a older
C-5A transport and uncomfortably made our way across the Atlantic and
landed at Rhine-Main Air Force base in Frankfurt, Germany where we
overnighted. Since we would have been segregated by rank at the
bases EM and NCO clubs, we went off base to a local gasthaus. We
drank the excellent beer as German distilled products were virtually
undrinkable to our refined palates. The next morning we loaded into
the C-5A for the jump to Riga, the capitol of Latvia. From Riga, we
made our way to the vicinity of a small Latvian village with an
unpronounceable name. Our escorts, Missile Artillerymen from HQ
Battery of the 6th Missile Battalion of the 61st Artillery were quite
the chatterboxes.
We were well received by the Battalion Commander and Battalion
Sergeant Major. We learned that there had been quite a competition
from the Line Batteries as to who was going to host our visit.
Charlie Battery was the apparent winner and the Battery Commander, a
Captain and the First Sergeant greeted us with smiles and a list of
what we could and couldn't film on the 'Patriot' firing lines. The
hardware that we could record was rather boring, but the interviews
with the troops were far more interesting than the ones we had the
previous summer at the training bases. These were 'seasoned'
soldiers and their comments were saltier and with far deeper insight
than the trainees we were accustomed to at training bases. It soon
became apparent to us that this was the real Army and that these
soldiers commanded real and lethal weaponry. Our interviews were
beyond the 'hi Mom' stuff we were used to. General Smith and Dave
thought that the interviews with the artillerymen raised the reality
quotient of our Facebook program ten fold.
------------------------------------------
We stayed overnight at Charlie Battery where Toni and I had a private
squad room and we joined in drinking good liquor with the Missile men
at their crude, but comfortable 'club'. The next morning it was back
to Riga and on to Poland and the fair city of Bialystok.
We spent three days riding around with Alpha Troop of the 2nd Bn. of
the 18th Armored Cavalry Regiment. They were involved in maneuvers
with Polish troops and it gave us our first opportunity to interact
with foreign soldiers. The Poles were astonished that Toni and I
weren't women. Something we didn't know was that only the US didn't
have women soldiers but, allowed what the Pole's referred to as
'crossdressers' as they so quaintly put it, to serve in the American
army. When the Cavalry Troopers of the 18th pointed out that we were
also paratroopers, we became local gods. We were surprised that the
Pole's were well acquainted with our Facebook page and interviewed
several of them, promising to get their remarks online.
Three days of mud and discomfort further entrenched the reality of
the life of the combat arm's line troops. The 18th had mechanized
infantry and artillery included in their merry band and we had some
good video and interviews with them. We were also surprised at the
amount of adult beverages that found their way into the mechanized
vehicles.
---------------------------------------------
We then proceeded to Odessa on the Black Sea and to our surprise,
found ourselves in the Coast Guard again.
In Odessa, we were scooped up by boisterous Coastie Petty Officers,
who were training their Ukrainian counterparts in the fine art of
port security. We spent a week riding the harbor, taking great video
and getting drunk with our hosts, American and Ukrainian. On our way
back to Germany we were asked if we could stop at Landstuhle Army
Hospital. The hospital is located in the far west of Germany, near
the French border. We spent a week there, mostly with interviews at
the hospital, patients [mostly battle casualties] and staff. We did
have a couple of days to visit the Mosel Valley wine areas and
Saarbrucken. We slipped into France to the small town of Stiring-
Wendel, just to say that we had been to France. The trip was very
interesting and very different. Being among line troops is very
different from being around trainees. They are a much more mature
and serious bunch. The hospital stop was heart wrenching, that's all
that I can say about that. We had been gone a month and were looking
forward to so intense rest and relaxation in Washington. Not so
fast.
-----------------------------------------------
Staff Sergeant Jeff knocked on the door to our room and he and Mason
came in and Jeff said, "There's been a change of plans."
Toni mouthed, 'Oh no!'
"Oh yes," responded Mason.
Jeff started solemnly, "We are to catch a C-130 in Rhine-Main and
proceed to Bagram Air Force base in Afghanistan. We leave here
tomorrow morning and overnight in Frankfurt and ship out the day
after tomorrow. We are authorized to draw body armor and other
stuff from the Air Force supply at Rhine-Main. Let's go and talk
this over."
We went into town and over beer cursed the moron that came up with
this plan. In the morning we were ordered to report to the hospital
out patient dispensary for shots. We received a nice battery of
inoculations for things that we did not know even existed. Arriving
at Rhine-Main, we drew our stuff from base supply, reoccupied our
previous quarters, changed into our civvies and returned to the
gasthaus near the base, where we picked up our grousing from the
previous evening. Toni and I had sex of the doomed that night.
We boarded the C-130 the next morning and headed east. Our traveling
companion's were somewhat cool to us, even after they discovered that
Toni and I were Gamma's. There were several snide remarks about our
little band tucking our fatigue pants cuffs into our boots airborne
style until they noticed the jump wings on our field jackets. Then
things changed. A torrent of information spewed forth from these
very hard men we were riding with.
Asking where we were going in 'Stan, Jeff replied, " Headquarters of
3rd of the 2nd Rangers." For two or three hours, we videoed
interviews with our companions and were readily accepted into the
'honorable profession of arms'.
It seemed like years later we landed in Kuwait to exchange some
passengers and refuel. Late the next afternoon we arrived at Bagram.
A Ranger Corporeal met us with a Humvee, not surprisingly equipped
with a M2, .50 caliber machine gun mounted on the roof. We dropped
our gear off at the 'barracks', a collection of shacks that you would
expect to find in a South American barrio. Then, on to Headquarters
where we were met by the 3rd Ranger Battalion Commanding Officer.
"I assume that you know who is responsible for your being here?" Lt.
Colonel Gibbons snarled.
We unanimously shook our heads, no.
He calmed, "The Chief of Staff is the culprit and he wants you guys
to go on a perimeter patrol while you're here. I must advise you
that this is not merely riding around the perimeter checking for
breaks in the wire. Probing the barrier by the Taliban and other's
is commonplace, so you will have to draw an M4 from the armory and
ammunition and four hand grenades each. Do you have body armor?
Well, the armorer will check you out and see to it that you have
everything that you need. Questions?"
Jeff asked, "Sir, are camera night vision lenses available?"
The Colonel nodded, "See our Signal Officer about that, I'm sure he
can set you up. Anything else? Go get some chow and take it easy
for a couple of days to get over your travel lag and someone will let
you know when you're on. Dismissed."
Toni was the first to speak on the way back to our hovels, "Well,
that was pleasant."
Mason replied, "This is the real deal, sweetie. Let's take the
Colonel's advice and get some rest."
At our barracks, a Ranger SFC was waiting.
"I'm Sergeant Keely, Platoon Sergeant of the 4th Platoon, Delta
Company. I am your personal nemesis for the next few days. You
people are going to spend some time at the range and some
familiarization with our Humvees, which are somewhat 'different' than
those you may have ridden in before. So, here's our routine while
here in garrison, reville is at 06:00, chow at 06:45. Sergeant
Williams, your detail will form up in the last rank of the formation
which is held in the Company Street right outside the door. I left a
cooler of odds and ends, cold fried chicken, biscuits and other stuff
in your billet, so I will see you in the morning."
"Thank you, Sergeant," said Jeff.
"One question," said Keely, "Your jump wings, they are real, right?"
We all nodded. Keely just smiled and said, "Enjoy your stay in
lovely Bagram."
---------------------------------------------
Toni and I went to our room and began unpacking our duffle's and
storing the items in the wall and foot lockers.
A rap on the door and Mason said, "Soups on." We followed Mason down
the narrow hallway to the Sergeant's billet and Jeff was sitting on
his bunk eating a chicken leg and drinking a beer.
Waving his drumstick at a large cooler on the floor said, "Dig in."
It was a picnic lunch, fried chicken, potato salad, cold slaw,
biscuits and beer. There was a note on the cooler, it read 'Some
items enclosed are forbidden by law in Afghanistan. Do not imbibe in
out of doors!' Toni said that they must be referring to the potato
salad. We were exhausted and the beer on top of the victuals
hastened an early evening.
A loud rap on the door and a shout of 'Reveille', stirred Toni and I
out of our overdue rest. We wisely donned our fatigues before going
to shower room as it was full of some of the most dangerous men in
the world. They were absolute gentlemen in a homicidal sort of way.
A Sergeant walked down the hall shouting, "Formation in ten,
formation in ten." Naked men hustled to their rooms, not that there
wasn't anything that we were unfamiliar with. Ten minutes later, we
ran into the Company Street and immediately saw Jeff at the rear of
the growing formation and we fell in beside him. Incidentally, this
was our first reveille, very exciting, but strange. Sergeant Keely
standing in front of the formation, called, "Report." First Squad
present and accounted for, Second Squad the same and so forth, then
Jeff called out, Signal Detail present or accounted for. Snickers
arose from the Ranger ranks.
"At ease," said Sergeant Keely, "No special announcements, go to chow
and reform at 08:00 for Motor Stables, dismissed."
Standing in the mess line, Toni whispered to me, "These are
scruffiest soldiers that I have ever seen."
I stifled a giggle realizing that we were in the maw of war. After
breakfast, a Buck Sergeant collected us and loading us into a Humvee
drove to the armory we were issued M4 rifles, ammunition and ear
plugs. Then the three striper drove us to the rifle range where we
fired at targets for two hours. The range master was eventually
satisfied with our efforts and we were on break until lunch.
Jeff and Mason videoed everything that they could between their own
sharpshooting efforts. We were sitting in the shade of our hovel
while several Rangers, just returned from some mission stopped to
chat with us. More great video and interviews. That afternoon the
Buck Sergeant returned with a different Humvee and gave a detailed
tour of the vehicle. We then boarded the Humvee and went to a
different range. This one had a scattering of vehicles in various
stages of demolition along with human silhouette targets. We spent
another two hours becoming intimate with the M2, vehicle mounted
machine gun.
The Sergeant, satisfied said on the way back to our billet, "Good job
on the Maw Deuce, tomorrow we'll get acquainted with the SAW, Squad
Automatic Weapon."
Back in our room, Toni lying spread eagle on her bunk said, "They
must think that we are going to war!"
I looked at her and replied, "We are at war, silly."
After another morning on the automatic weapons range, we attended the
pre-patrol briefing for our adventure beginning that afternoon.
I was surprised that it was only a platoon involved in the security
detail. Six Humvee's would be employed in the perimeter fence
patrol. The was a pre-fabricated concrete wall topped by a barbed
wire entanglement and the perimeter road only extended about one
third of the base perimeter. Other areas of the perimeter were
manned by Air Force and Marine troops. Also, surprise, surprise,
there was a prison on the base, larger than Guantanamo Bay's that
contained numerous nere do wells. We learned our shift started at
16:00 and was twenty-four hours in duration. Our 'Signal Detail'
was on the first shift, two hours on, six off.
Toni and Mason were in one Humvee with Myself and Jeff following. It
was all quite relaxed on the first tour, driving up and down the
perimeter road, checking the wall and wire. We dismounted from the
Humvee occasionally to follow the fence in areas the Humvee's could
not traverse. We went on foot to a point where other security forces
took over and then returned to the vehicles to continue our 'mounted'
surveillance, all in all rather boring. We turned over our patrol to
the next shift at 18:00 and went to the guard billet, ate and
relaxed. At 02:00, we fired up the Humvee's and resumed patrol. The
routine continued for about forty-five minutes when a shrieking
whistles broke the whine of aircraft landing and taking off.
"Mortar's," shouted the squad leader, "Flat on the ground," he
yelled.
Four explosions disintegrated the hard scrabble earth about sixty
yards beyond our position and the concussions bounced our bodies off
the ground. Twenty feet from me lay Toni.
She yelled at me, "Sergeant Major Dave didn't say anything about this
in his e-mails."
The squad leader was shouting into his radio about weaponry and
coordinate's. "Fall back to the 'vee's," he ordered.
We piled into the Humvee's and the drivers took up what I assumed
were defensive positions. We were ordered out of the vehicles and
positioned in prone firing position facing the wall. The M2 gunners
stayed with their weapons as did the driver/radio operator. The
squad leader took the SAW and lay prone between me and the Humvee.
"You have the right flank, 'cookie', " he shouted, quietly.
I instinctively loaded my M4 and peered through the twilight gloom,
waiting for the perimeter wall to explode. A loud explosion went off
on the other side of the wall and pieces of concrete went into the
air.
"RPG," shouted the squad leader.
Seconds after the first explosion, a second round hit the same area.
"Get your grenades off your harness and keep them in reach," bellowed
the squad leader.
The ever cinematic Sergeant Jeff was putting a night vision lens on
his camera as four more RPG rounds slammed into the reinforced
concrete. More mortar rounds were dropping, working their way
towards the runway. The noise was deafening, closely followed by the
sound of terror being produced by my heart.
-------------------------------------------------
A hole was created in the wall by the shape charged warheads of the
RPG's followed by another round flew through the hole in wall and
skidded for a hundred feet before detonating. Suddenly, the damaged
section of wall disintegrated and three man wide gap in the wall
appeared. Three more RPG rounds led the aggressor's charge. The
closest one to me exploded, showering me with dirt and gravel sized
stones.
The first trio of Taliban plunged through the gap and the SAW erupted
along with my terrified M4. Jeff was crouching along our miniscule
defensive line videoing and firing his M4 from the hip. John Wayne
would have been proud. More Taliban burst through the gap and the
M2's opened up with awesome effect. Men were literally being blown
apart.
"Get your grenades ready," shouted the squad leader. "Don't pull the
pins yet."
For some unknown reason, I felt quite calm now as I busied myself
reloading my rifle and staring at the grenades, none of which I had
ever thrown before. Two more RPG's wound through the gap, followed
by several more of the Faithful, seeking their seventy 'hories'.
Gunfire erupted on the far side of the wall and attempts to breech
the wall ceased. We remained alert for an hour and a half until the
gunfire and explosions ended. A Humvee trundled into our position
and an Air Force Lieutenant got out and after conferring with our
squad leader, left.
"OK," said the squad leader, "The hostiles have been neutralized, but
we are maintain our position until relieved."
We lay there for another two hours before a platoon of Marines and
several Stryker's and a half dozen Air Engineer's relieved us. We
returned to the guardhouse and relaxed and rearmed. Toni and I were
so proud of ourselves and our squad leader went around to all of us
saying how good we did. The rest of our guard mount went
uneventfully.
Sergeant Keely and the Battalion Commander dropped by while we were
on patrol and congratulated us on our performance under fire.
Looking at Toni and I, the BC said, "Since you two are infantry, I
will report your participation in this action and you will be awarded
your CIB's. You two Signal Sergeant's, did a fine job recording the
action and incidentally, engaging the enemy at the same time. So, I
am going to recommend you two for a Bronze Star. Again, well done."
Toni asked, "What's a CIB?"
The squad leader respond, "Combat Infantryman's Badge. You can only
earn one by being engaged with an enemy while a member of an official
Infantry unit. You two are part of the 3rd Regiment, are you not?"
Jeff and Mason gave us both a hug. "Yeah," said Mason. "You are
already 'killer hot' and now you are going to be US Army officially,
'killer deadly'.
We spent two more days at Bagram before we caught a flight to Rhine-
Main accompanied by a dozen wounded soldiers and Marines. Toni and I
ere now veteran's and we had had enough of war.
--------------------------------------------------
We were met at Andrews by Dave who congratulated us for surviving and
the terrific video Jeff had e-mailed.
"You guys did great, the Chief of Staff is ecstatic and General
Smith is greatly impressed. In fact, General Smith wants to see the
four of you in his office at 08:00 tomorrow. So, when we get back to
Washington, you guys take the rest of the day off, relax and get
prepared for a dull rest of the summer putting together several
Facebook episodes about your recent exploits."
We arrived in our dusty apartment at about three in the afternoon,
showered and sixty nined for a while and lounged around with good
whiskey until we decided to get dressed for our dinner date with Jeff
and Mason. My cell phone rang and it was Dave. The Sergeant Major
asked us to dinner and I replied that we had committed to the Signal
boys and why didn't he join us. Dave readily agreed and we all met
at our favorite local Italian restaurant. We told Dave about our
trip, leaving out Bagram. After dinner we went to the small bar in
the strip mall down the street from our apartment. Dave bought the
first round and started commenting upon the After Action Report
submitted by the CO of Delta Company of the 3rd of the 2nd Rangers.
He looked at Jeff and Mason and said that their Bronze Stars had been
approved and by order of the Chief of Staff, It had been upgraded to
include the 'V' for valor device." The two Sergeants nodded their
thanks, then Dave looked at Toni and I and said, "Since you two are
bound and determined to upset the time honored Army tradition's the
Chief of Staff has deemed it proper that you two be similarly
awarded."
Toni gasped, "Does that mean that we are going to get medals?" Dave
laughed, "And your CIB's."
Our sundresses were being stretched out of shape from our puffing up.
I insisted upon getting the next round, saluting my comrades in arms
and my favorite Sergeant Major.
-------------------------------------------------------
The next morning, the four us rode in the Signal Corps van to the
Pentagon. We strode through the foyer like we owned it and presented
ourselves to General Smith. We discussed our trip and the General
agreed that we material for several Facebook pages and blogs.
The General then stood up and his Aide said, "Attention."
The four of us snapped to and General stepped around his desk and
ordered Sergeant's Williams and Morgan, "Front and Center."
With a wide smile on his face, the General said, "It is the privilege
of every commanding officer to recognize the military deeds of those
under his command. Today, I am privileged to recognize Sergeant's
Jeffrey Williams and Mason Jenkins for valor in the face of the
enemy. Sergeant Williams, step forward. I am proud and indeed
honored to present you with the Bronze Star award with the 'V' device
for valor on behalf of a grateful nation."
With that, General Smith pinned the medal on Jeff's uniform jacket
and handed Jeff the award's case. Jeff saluted the General and with
the crispest about face that he had ever done, returned to stand in
rank with Mason. The ceremony was repeated for Mason.
General Smith then looked at Toni and I and said, "In about two
hours, there will be a ceremony at Fort Myers at which you will
present yourselves. The Battalion Commander of the Old Guard is very
much looking forward to it. Now, while it may be early here,
someplace in the world, the sun has passed the yard arm. Chief,
please do the honors." The six of us sat around the General's office
drinking bourbon until nearly 10:00 hours and reasonably fortified,
we left for Fort Myers.
Toni and I formed up with Headquarters and Headquarters Company on
the parade grounds and nervously awaited the coming ceremony. We
were the rear rank with the drivers and other gofers, our Signal
buddies were mere spectators. The fife and drum guys were formed up
to the right of the battalion formation. As the BC made his way to
the podium platform, the bugle fellows joined in with the fife's and
drums in 'Ruffles and Flourishes'. The Battalion Sergeant Major
made a small hand gesture and the musician's fell silent.
"Today, the 3rd Regiment is honored to recognize the military deeds
of two of our command in combat with enemy forces," intoned the
Battalion Commander.
Sergeant Major Dietz stepped forward and bellowed, "Specialists Randi
Thomas and Toni Ambelli, front and center."
Toni and I, being at the far left of the rear rank sucked it up and
two strides forward, right face, marched passed the right of our rank
and left face towards the first rank of our small formation. Another
left face and a right placed us in front of the BC. We hand saluted
and announced our presence. The BC, returned our salute and began
with a short homily concerning the valor of the Infantry and awarded
both of us with the CIB, Combat Infantryman's Badge. He reminded his
command that the only troops eligible for the award are active
members of an Infantry Regiment that have actively engaged with an
armed enemy force. After receiving our CIB's, we were not dismissed.
The BC continued by stating, "In addition, the honored soldiers in
place are further awarded the Bronze Star with the valor device for
their actions in defense of Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan against an
enemy force of superior numbers and armament. The Specialists,
assigned to hold the flanks of their squad, did so, armed with only
their rifles and hand grenades, inflicting numerous casualties on the
enemy after the enemy had breached the defensive barriers. The
people of the United States are forever in debt to their fortitude."
With that exaggeration, the Colonel stepped forward and pinned the
medal above our left breasts with something of a leer. We hand
saluted and with the Colonel's response, about faced and retreated in
a military manner to original positions in the ranks. We passed in
review of the BC and I am sure that he bragged about the butt kickers
in his command at the Army and Navy Club that evening.
----------------------------------------
Our happy little Facebook Detail gathered that evening at our
favorite local bar to celebrate being alive when in walked Dave and
to our great surprise, a Warrant Officer One that greatly resembled
Rick. We were all proud that Rick had earned his pilot's wings and
his and Dave's presence made the evening complete, or so we thought.
Less than a minute later General McFarland and Alice also joined us.
The General admonished us for not inviting Alice and him to our
party.
Staff Sergeant Jeff, being our Detail NCOIC, responded with a quickly
thought out lie, "Sir, the chain of command was too cluttered to
notify The General and the ever gracious Alice in such a short
notice, Sir."
The General laughed, "You will go far in this man's Army, son." CWO
Meeks had Alice seated and he and Mason moved an adjacent empty table
next to ours and the party was duly organized. The server, a pretty
early twenties brunette came over me and asked who are the people
that just came in.
I responded smugly, "The older gentleman with the blonde woman was
the Army Chief of Staff, the top guy. The other older gentleman is
the Sergeant Major of the Army, very important guy, the African
American gentleman is the Generals right hand man. The young officer
in uniform is a helicopter pilot and you know Jeff, Mason, Toni and
myself. I'll get the first round."
Alice had positioned herself between Toni and myself.
"You can't imagine how proud I am of you two," she whispered. "The
General want's to see the video of your awards ceremony and he wants
all the women and Gamma's in the country to see it. This is a really
big deal. Even I can't butt in on it." Toni and I snickered at
Alice's admission of impotence.
The General made numerous toasts to the four of us and the Army's new
helicopter pilot Rick, and Dave for envisioning the program. He
stopped his pontificating for moment and the Chief of Staff looked at
Rick and said, "Mr. Merkel, the 101st Airborne is looking for chopper
pilots. Line duty greatly enhances a soldiers portfolio when it
involves said soldiers being in close contact with flag officers.
Having gone through airborne jump school and chopper pilot training,
you, my lad are positioned to be an outstanding ADC whose voice will
be heard in those closed meetings of the high muckity mucks in the
Pentagon. Should I put your name in with a recommendation?"
The Sergeant Major placed his hand on Rick's shoulder and whispered
into his ear. Rick, looking at the General, nodded. Knowing that he
was in the game with both feet. CWO Meeks, watching the interchange
with satisfaction, knowing Rick had just discovered what the Army was
all about.
Sergeant Major Beck slide between myself and Toni, kissed the both of
us on the top of our heads and whispered, "Thank you for producing a
fine soldier."
Toni and I were all ah tingle. I just realized that the quick peck
on the top of my head was a kiss from the only man to kiss me, other
than my father. The evening concluded with the usual cordial
handshaking and faire thee wells. Back at our apartment, Toni and I
snuggled and after more nightcaps, staggered off to bed. Our days at
the Pentagon ended several days later and we returned to our studies
at the U of I and duties with the ROTC.
-------------------------------------------
A year later, our enlistment was up and as we were not invited to re-
enlist, Toni and I shelved our Army 'stuff' forever. There was one
caveat to our military service however, we drank with the men at the
family gatherings. Our Facebook programs still ran and we still
received a ton of e-mails from New and old fans.
The event of the summer was the duel weddings of Denise and Gracie.
Their beau's, both Captains by now had arranged a semi military
ceremony at a local church and the reception was at Denise' parents
home which bordered a nice city park. Toni and I, going stag as
usual, were not a part of the wedding party, which thankfully,
allowed us to drink to excess.
Sitting alone at a picnic table, we were suddenly joined by ex-
Sergeant Major Dave. "You two look delicious, why are you sitting
alone? He said as he joined us.
Toni replied, "Ours is the fate of Gamma's, look but, don't touch."
Dave smiled a sad smile. "You two personify the fate of the typical
dogface, do a dirty job well and be discarded."
"They did more than that," exclaimed a female voice. It was Alice.
"You don't think that I would miss a wedding at which I had screwed
both of the bride's, do you?" she remarked with satisfaction.
Dave, choked slightly, having heard many tales about Alice. He
looked me, sitting grimly in my satin dress and I wagged a finger at
Toni and pointed to myself and nodded. Dave's respect for Alice,
gained new heights.
Coming to grips with this revelation, Dave jumped to feet and rushed
to assist General McFarlane, bearing two trays of beverages. "Why
didn't you grab one of the shavetails to carry that stuff, Sir," said
Dave.
----------------------------------------------------
Unbeknownst to us, the bride's and groom's while working the crowd
spied our little group and panic set in. Captain Tom abandoned his
bride on the spot and huddled with Captain Bill who merely turned and
stared. Recovering his military bearing and bride. Captain Tom
ushered the newly wedded to our picnic table. Both the General and
Dave stood to greet the Captains and grope the bride's. Toni and my
father's, talking with groom's father's noticed Toni and I at the
picnic table with the very erect newly weds. The father's of the
groom's asked our father's what was going on.
Toni's dad said, "If I'm not mistaken, your son's and daughters in
law are having a conversation with the Chief of Staff of the Army and
the former Sergeant Major of the Army."
Captain Tom's mother joined the men and asked, "Who are the men that
Tom is talking to?" Captain Tom's father could only mutter, "It's
Tom's boss."
"How nice of him to come," she replied.
Tom rushed over to the gathered parents and urged them to join the
party at the picnic table. It was not a request. Toni and I watched
the genuflecting of Tom and Bill before General McFarlane and the
simultaneous wry smile of Alice and we realized that Alice was the
actual Commander in Chief of the Army.
While Alice was directing the traffic at the picnic table, Dave
signaled to Toni and I to follow him.
At another table, we sat together and Dave made his pitch. "I have a
proposition for the both of you," began Dave.
Toni, ever the smart aleck, replied, "Oh goody, we love to be
propositioned."
That comment was met with the disapproving glare that only a well
seasoned Sergeant Major could deliver. Realizing her error, Toni
raised his bracelet and bangle covered arm's in mock surrender.
Mollified, Dave continued, "I have accepted a position with the
Wisconsin National Guard. This position also requires that I have a
small staff of experienced ex-military personnel. When you two
graduate this month, I would like very much for you two take those
positions. You would have the pay and considerations of a Captain in
the state guard. You would have to move to Milwaukee as that is my
headquarters. I have discussed your appointments with the Governor
and his is very familiar with the work that you have done for the
Army and has approved your appointments."
Alice had given us a heads up on Dave's appointment and our possible
involvement with it but, this was far beyond what we expected. We
immediately accepted. Dave reached across the table and we shook
hands on the deal.
---------------------------------------------------------
With another unneeded celebratory drink, we toasted our new positions
with Dave.
Toni said, "We'll, sweets, it looks like apartment hunting in
Milwaukee for us."
Dave coughed, "I have an another offer for you two. I have purchased
a remodeled townhouse, fronting on the Milwaukee River. It is on the
top floor of a rehabbed small industrial building. It has some
thirty five hundred square feet of living space, including four
spacious bedrooms and underground parking, if you are interested in
moving in with an old soldier, it would be available, rent free."
Toni and I looked at each other and I asked, "When could we see it.
I mean, when could we move in?"
Dave, blushing [a first] said, "How about tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow it is," gushed Toni.
--------------------------------------------
The next morning, Toni and I left for Milwaukee to meet with Dave.
An easy five hour drive, including a terrifying hour in Chicago, we
easily found the place. It was right downtown in the city and Dave's
description left out some important details. He had a dock and a
twenty eight foot cabin cruiser moored to it. Also, an immense
balcony and a roof garden.
"What do think?" asked Dave.
"It's beautiful," I replied.
Toni asked the obvious," Dave, dear. May I have a drink?"
"Forgive me, I have forgotten my manners," said Dave.
I knew instantly what Toni was up to. Dave returned with a tray and
three whiskies and we toasted Dave's townhouse and accepted his offer
about moving in.
Toni then putting her drink down, dropped to his knees and started to
unbuckle Dave's trousers. I followed Toni's lead. Dave was standing
there with his drink in one hand and the tray in the other while his
trousers slid to the carpet.
Toni looking up at Dave said, "This place deserves some payment,"
and pulled Dave's boxer shorts down to his knees.
"My, my. This is impressive," said Toni as he grasped Dave's
erecting member.
I watched Toni with fascination as the unlikely thought that this was
going to be our first blow job on a male other than each other was
whirling around in my mind. Toni began the slow lick and pulled my
head into the action. Immobilized by his ankle covered trousers and
occupied hands, Dave was the victim of two experts in the art of oral
gratification.
Breathing heavily, Dave asked, " How many bedrooms do you girls
want?"
Toni, turning duties over to me answered, "None, we'll join you."
Dave finally surrendered and filled my mouth and Toni expertly took
over.
I looked at Dave and said, "I've been waiting over three years for
that."
