II: Falman - Part I
It hung on the wall beside the filing cabinet. One day to a page, one number to a sheet.
A week after Havoc had begun his – so far successful - campaign to win over Fuery the calendar was again incorrect.
Everyone looked at Havoc who pled innocent and ran for the duty book to prove it.
The log indicted Falman but he was nowhere to be found. The Colonel, always eager to escape…err… help a colleague out, organised an immediate search for the missing Warrant Officer.
Thirty minutes later Breda returned with Falman who was holding an ice pack over a very nasty black eye.
"What happened, Falman?" Hawkeye inquired as she inspected the damaged area.
"Well, Lieutenant, I had just commenced the necessary preparations for the coffee when the shelf above collapsed and the books on the shelf descended upon me. I immediately notified Building Maintenance and requested the damage be repaired which they speedily did. I then reported to the Infirmary for treatment."
Everyone turned and examined the books upon the newly repaired shelf.
It was a complete leather bound set of "Military Rules and Regulations: Procedural Requirements and Reporting." Third Edition. Volumes 1 through 13.
