Reminds Me of a Story

Reminds me of a story



During Desert Storm, shortly after I got there, I was running the MP shop for Fort Pok.  Most of the active MPs had been deployed, so the reservists started running the law enforcement mission.  Fort Polk had doubled in size over-night.

Just outside one of the gates was a Subway sandwich shop in a little strip mall.  The manager contacted us and asked if we could have an MP car roll thru the parking lot when they closed at midnight, to make sure that the daily deposit got safely into an employees vehicle.  He asked how any MPs I had on the night shift, and I told him 12.  He said that the employee closing the store would have 12 foot-long subs in a bag for the on-shift MPs.

Those guys and gals on the night shift ate a lot of Subway
