Izzy walked into the mess tent, whistling the theme song to M*A*S*H.
'Will you cut out that stupid noise!' Frank snapped.
'Interesting tune. What is it called?' Hawkeye asked.
'"Suicide is Painless". You wouldn't know it,' Izzy grinned. She was in a good mood today. Radar was going to get the Colonel to sign the final forms for her to join the army today.
'Thank goodness you go back to Austria today,' Frank said.
'That's Australia, you idiot,' Izzy said, feeling low. She forgot today was the day she was due to get into a chopper and go home. Radar better get that form in quick.
'Whatever,' Frank said, turning back to his meal. Suddenly, the PA system crackled into life.
'Izzy to the Colonel's office,' the announcement said. Izzy stood up. Hawkeye and BJ stood up as well.
'We'll come with you. In case it's important,' BJ said. Izzy smiled and began walking towards Potter's office. The colonel groaned when he saw who was following her.
'I don't recall asking for Izzy and her fan group,' he grumbled. 'Sit down anyway, you'll find out soon enough why I called her in anyway.' The three of them sat and Izzy's palms felt sweaty.
'What's up, Colonel?' Hawkeye asked. Potter threw a folder in front of them. Hawkeye and BJ picked it up and opened it. Both men began laughing.
'Do either of you know about this?' Potter asked.
'No,' BJ said truthfully. 'How'd she pull it off?' He glanced over at Izzy when he said it.
'Radar shoved a whole stack of papers under my nose and told me to sign them. Told me they were order forms for surgical gowns, even thought we don't need 'em,' Potter replied. Hawkeye looked towards Izzy.
'This is amazing. Why didn't you tell us?' he asked. Turning back to the Colonel, Hawkeye asked 'Is it valid?'
'Yep. From this moment on, Izzy is a member of the American Army, even though she's from Australia,' Potter said. Izzy tried to look innocent, but the grin she was trying to hide burst through.
'Thank you, sir,' she said, saluting. She, BJ and Hawkeye walked out of his office and began heading towards the Swamp.
'This deserves a celebration. Teach us that tune you were whistling and we'll annoy Frank all night tonight,' Hawkeye said.
'Will you cut out that stupid noise!' Frank snapped.
'Interesting tune. What is it called?' Hawkeye asked.
