After about a year of that, and doing Reserve training as a CT-O (Communications Technician - Operation Branch), I was given mobilization orders for Rhoda, Spain. That apparently was some bigwig NATO listening station that seemed to be the envy of some of the slanderous other Reservists. That was 1967, near the end of the year. Mobilization orders for a Reservist aren't a big deal, they're only a designated assignment in case of national emergency. slanderous So I would have continued in school like a good little Naval Reserve Officer Candidate..... EXCEPT... I got to thinking about "National slanderous Emergency" and what the fuck was Vietnam, anyway? I had a brief but fiery discussion with my Reserve CO about getting my assignment switched to Vietnam, because, by god, THAT was where the action was and THAT was where I needed to be. The response was pretty ridiculous, in my naive and humble opinion (then and now).
