Yesterday, while
waiting for the bus from the induction center, I noted a few young high school
students waiting as well. These girls were obviously, clutching their
induction-center bus passes, finishing a morning of processing at the center.
One was laughing
with her friend, making a TON of noise. She asked the driver of the bus (when
it arrived) if her had scissors for the bus pass, which was completely
unneeded, as the passes have perforated edges. In short, it was obvious that
she was trying with all her might to get some attention.
I thought to myself
“I would love to see her in a year, after she has served a bit in the army. Chances
are that she will be quieter, more mature, and more self assured….
