The Marines are looking for you

One of my handlers came into my room and said, "I think we just pissed the Marines off."

Most of our guys work on Army projects and my field manager called to ask if my handler had me. The Marines felt however that it was there duty to secure and process me into Kuwait. So when they got to the airport and then didn't find me they went apeshit and then sent people out to find me. We were advised that in order to avoid problems like that again all FE's assigned to the Marines will be handled only by Marines. It is a comforting feeling that they mobalized so quickly in order to find me but, I think a few phone calls would have sufficed.
