Well, his knees are in good enough shape to keep going, so that is what he intends to do. His father doesn't have legs, after all, and he is the best man that KC has ever encountered, at least in his opinion.
I wonder what they will teach him this tour....

and I wonder if his career will survive.

Well, it looks like he had to spend time fighting in close quarters, as his skill with a blade rises. Not only that, but it seems as if his dealings with a wide assortment of people may pay off, and maybe his next request for OCS won't be ignored. How wonderful would that be.
In the meantime, let's find out what sort of interesting events happened

After consulting with our GM, because that was another romantic interlude, I end up with the following:
You have an opportunity to risk a fortune of your earnings on a few hands of cards with a fellow marine. You may gamble a number of Benefit Rolls and roll Gambling 8+ or Persuade 9+. If you succeed, you gain half as many Benefit rolls as you risked, rounding up. If you fail, you lose all the rolls risked. Either way, you gain a level in Deception, Gambling or Persuade.
Time to screw myself over. Betting all 3 of my current Benefits on a roll of this totally insane die roller.

The marines in Omega company had promised to teach him a lesson in cards. This probably wasn't the lesson they intended to teach. To show there were no hard feelings, he bought them a round of drinks and a “lap dance” from LuLu. (Taking the gain to gambling and +2 extra Benefits)
Feeling flush, and optimistic, his next stop is to drop off his latest application to OCS. He hopes lady luck isn't too fickle, and that the contacts he made will go through for him this time.
(Need an 8+)

The ceremony was a blast. He was so glad his parents had been able to make it. He also made a mental note to cherish, but never mention, the fact that his dad has tears in his eyes. Gotta keep up the manly image, after all. As he settled into his bunk that night, the list time he would be sleeping in the Enlisted barracks, he let his thumb caress over the Lieutenant's bar, not even feeling the aches and pains from a hard military life, at least, not at the moment.

Note: Edited to correct mistake made due to misunderstanding a rule. Changes account for mustering out of career See end of Term 7 for rolls. Ouch, he really did have arthritis set in. (Gained Leadership 1 from becoming an LT. -3 total points to physical stats... time to divide them up. (-1 to Str -2 to Dex)
Well, it seems a desk job did more harm to him than if he had stayed active out in the field. He lost a bit of muscle tone, but not too much, and his joints started stiffening up from sitting too long. But, at least he didn't get shot.
The character as he stands so far

Looks like I gained a level of Admin when I went to officer school as well.
