Re: Game A
Kirby listened as the colonel answered his questions, nodding here and there as the information was supplied. The whole thing, now that he had a couple of minutes to absorb it, was interesting, exciting, if not a little daunting. A call sign? How...odd.
“Thank you Colonel.” He said as the Lt. Colonel rose and left. A few moments later he stood an opened the blinds once more to let the light of the outside seep back into his small office. That done he stepped over to the door, opened it, and issued several orders.
“Corporal Weathers,” he spoke loud enough to get the young soldier’s attention outside his door, “Several things. First, call Colonel Sing and see if he has time after lunch to see me. I’ve got new orders.” He continued without pause, knowing the clerk would track all of his orders and follow them efficiently, “Second, I want you to get a hold of a Dr. Tibbs, Orlando Tibbs, at the University of Chicago. If the Doc is available, patch him into my office. If not, arrange a time for a call.” Best to get ahead of this teaching assignment and hopefully this Tibbs fellow would be of help. “Finally, let Lt. Jules know that I’ll want to see him after I get back from the Colonel’s office, and advise the Officers and Non-Coms of the company that I’ll want to see them all at sixteen hundred.” He thought for a moment, thinking through his directions once more, “That’s it Corporal, thank you.” He turned and returned to his desk.
As the corporal went about his orders in the office without Kirby reached into his pocket and pulled out his personal cell phone. He quickly sent out a brief text message “new orders, call 2nite, cu soon” his Grandfather in spite of his age was still quite sharp and, Kirby admitted, probably more tech savvy than himself. There was a lot he wanted to discuss with The General, but it would be best to do so in person.
Kirby then put his phone away and turned his attention to the files on his desk.
OOC: Hope you don't mind the made up names. Lt. Colonel Sing - Kirby's current commanding officer. Lt. Jules is the Dog Comany Executive Officer who'd be in temporary command until a new commander is appointed. The meeting with the officers and senior enlisted would be to say good bye. Asside from the call to Tibbs, up to you if you want to RP any of the other stuff.
