Not
a
thing
.
Not
a
blessed
thing
.
Except
that
your
papers
get
marked
,
Term
not
completed
satisfactorily
,
and
you
never
,
never
,
never
get
a
second
chance
.
This
is
our
cooling-off
period
,
during
which
we
shake
out
the
overgrown
babies
who
did
n't
really
mean
it
and
should
never
have
taken
the
oath
.
It
saves
the
government
money
and
it
saves
a
power
of
grief
for
such
kids
and
their
parents
--
the
neighbors
need
n't
guess
.
You
do
n't
even
have
to
tell
your
parents
.
"
He
shoved
his
chair
away
from
his
desk
.
"
So
I
'll
see
you
at
noon
day
after
tomorrow
.
If
I
see
you
.
Fetch
your
personal
effects
.
"
It
was
a
crumby
leave
.
Father
stormed
at
me
,
then
quit
speaking
to
me
;
Mother
took
to
her
bed
.
When
I
finally
left
,
an
hour
earlier
than
I
had
to
,
nobody
saw
me
off
but
the
morning
cook
and
the
houseboys
.
I
stopped
in
front
of
the
recruiting
sergeant
's
desk
,
thought
about
saluting
and
decided
I
did
n't
know
how
.
He
looked
up
.
"
Oh
.
Here
are
your
papers
.
Take
them
up
to
room
201
;
they
'll
start
you
through
the
mill
.
Knock
and
walk
in
.
"
Two
days
later
I
knew
I
was
not
going
to
be
a
pilot
.
Some
of
the
things
the
examiners
wrote
about
me
were
:
insufficient
intuitive
grasp
of
spatial
relationships
...
insufficient
mathematical
talent
...
deficient
mathematical
preparation
...
reaction
time
adequate
...
eyesight
good
.
I
'm
glad
they
put
in
those
last
two
;
I
was
beginning
to
feel
that
counting
on
my
fingers
was
my
speed
.
The
placement
officer
let
me
list
my
lesser
preferences
,
in
order
,
and
I
caught
four
more
days
of
the
wildest
aptitude
tests
I
've
ever
heard
of
.
I
mean
to
say
,
what
do
they
find
out
when
a
stenographer
jumps
on
her
chair
and
screams
,
"
Snakes
!
"
There
was
no
snake
,
just
a
harmless
piece
of
plastic
hose
.
The
written
and
oral
tests
were
mostly
just
as
silly
,
but
they
seemed
happy
with
them
,
so
I
took
them
.
The
thing
I
did
most
carefully
was
to
list
my
preferences
.
Naturally
I
listed
all
of
the
Space
Navy
jobs
(
other
than
pilot
)
at
the
top
;
whether
I
went
as
power-room
technician
or
as
cook
,
I
knew
that
I
preferred
any
Navy
job
to
any
Army
job
--
I
wanted
to
travel
.
