August....?

AUGUST

in the NARMY now

(Navy Air force aRMY)

yep. im in the narmy now. as of late august, we moved from "walter reed georgia ave" to walter reed bethesda. i posted on this a few months ago so if you want the whole story, just look back. this post, i'll just focus on some of the new stuff i've learned from the navy that i find rather funny.

gear adrift = misplaced junk

head = latrine = bathroom

bulkhead = wall

p way = hall

chit = a piece of paper saying pretty much anything to pretty much anybody

dixie cup = sailor hat

deck = floor

muster = a group meeting

the old place

"the reed" "WRAMC" "Walter Reed Georgia Ave"

the new place

"NARMY" "Navy" "WRNNMC" "Bethesda" "Walter Reed Wisconsin Ave"

that's pretty much it for aug. we slowly closed down the hospital until the last day when 

everybody got tossed into one of these killer ambulances and taken over the the new

place.  

8 stretchers, something like 8 seats for ambulatory pts,
and when it comes down the road, everybody moves.

its pretty sick
