Unfortunately, NOT KoL related

Recently, the company command decided to conduct a 100% urinalysis during regular PT time. I was called in for what would be an (unfortunately) memorable experience; I was tasked to be an "observer."

Now, I think this is the first time in my brief career as an NCO that I had received this assignment. I second guess myself now, because I may have indeed performed this duty in the past, and simply COMPLETELY BLOCKED IT OUT OF MY MIND to protect my sanity. For now, as I cannot block out the events of that morning, I question my sanity at this moment...

I rattle off the statement to each soldier as I take them individually to the "Latrine Of Limits." (Someone forgot to spell check the Word file when making the signs.) "I need to see the cup at all times, and I need to see the urine enter the cup."

The short briefing that I had to read for myself was accurate: it stated that no one enjoys this, either those watched, or the watchers. I believe it is so (no one I watched seemed to overly enjoy it, to my knowledge).

I try and concentrate on the mundane, so I won't focus on the profane. For example, I kept track of the soldiers who didn't wash their hands after they went. There were two pilots (a Lieutenant and a Chief Warrant Officer 2nd Class), a maintenance soldier (a Specialist) and a linguist (a Sergeant, who I am disappointed in). I made up rules ("Don't stare directly into the penis.") for myself. I tried to keep things light, but I wasn't supposed to joke... some soldiers were already nervous as all hell.

I have never seen so many male genitalia. I'm scarred for life.

Just think of the Pediatricians, OB GYNs and Urololgists!  See?  You are just an army doctor!

How sad that I know exactly what that means. And sadder that it was what I hoped this article was about when I clicked on it.

I got that unfortunate responsibility once... ONCE. Yeah, sad and sorry experience to be an escort.

...as I take them individually to the "Latrine Of Limits."

No... the latrine has no limits! ::

"Don't stare directly into the penis."

What a coincidence! I saw that exact quotation in a fortune cookie last weekend! ::

Keep the faith, good SSG Pseudo! Have a happy weekend... try to shake the mental images from your mind... perhaps some alcohol?

Hehehe....funnily enough, Dave, his colleague and I were just talking about this yesterday.  His colleague got pulled in for a UA, and when he came back we spent some time wondering if people who have a fetish for that kind of thing join the military and enter a career field (like lab tech) that ensures they'll have to observe UA's on a regular basis.

Do you feel....*ahem* inferior now?  Or are you feeling superior because of what you observed?  (sorry, but I just had to ask)....

I feel... vaguely disturbed, and nauseated. I hope that feeling passes before the ham I'm making is ready. (It's my first ham.)

I just have the very very strong conviction that I never want to see another man's penis ever again. And that was on top of the complete lack of drive to see one in the first place.

That's what I was hoping for as well. Oops!

Now repeat after me: The memories will fade, the memories will fade......

So, SSG now? Cool! WHen did that happen?

I've had this task on a few occasions, it ususally happens right after I arrive in a new unit. I just tell all the guys I'm observing that it's a unique way of getting to know each other, a bonding experience, if you will. Much like combat, or being taken hostage together would help us bond...

In November. They're picking up every E5P AD ASAP, and have been for about 1/2 year. I did terribly on my board, and still managed to be the highest points promotable for the month (by 2 points, and they picked both of us up, anyway).
