Kids are calling

The Cadet unit I recently left is apparently falling apart. I have been getting calls from kids and adults asking me to start another unit. The thought of starting my own unit is very appealing, but the major drawback is that I would likely have to locate it at a Marine Reserve Center, which is located approximately 45 minutes west of my home. I would also begin a battle with the local CO as many of his kids would defect to my unit. I really miss working with the kids and many of the military aspects of the program including close order drill. But I am also enjoying my free time and reduced stress. I have been discussing the idea with B but he has shown little interest in returning to the cadet group. It is unlikely that I will start a unit; but I wish I could. I just have to accept this choice and move on.

It feels good to be wanted though. I guess when the time and situation are right, you'll start your own unit.
