T.NAUGHTON [SCAVENGER]
Dweebering, oops, During the battle of Munda I, at last, had an opportunity to exit the rands of Dweebdom. The enemy bomber formation tried to sneak around the my patrol route. I caught them redhanded and radioed command where to vector the entire Japanese force to intercept. Only problem was I radioed the wrong sectors and then got shot down. When asked to explain the misshap I wrote the following to command at Christmas 1993.
- It was the night before Munda, when all through the house.
- Not a creature was stirring,... no spoons and no mouse.
- The maps and sectors were put in to place.
- In hopes that the Scav would make no mistakes.
- The Scav was nestled all snug in his bed.
- While visions of enema danced in his head.
- The take off next day was at T-ZERO.
- The Scavenger hoped he'd soon be a hero.
- His mission was to be a good scout.
- His comrades awaited the sound of his shout.
- The time passed slowly as onward he flew.
- The moments grew tense, his anxiety grew.
- When all of a sudden there arose such a sight.
- The enema Bomber wing in all of their might.
- Then down came the fighters they lanced through the sky.
- Scav. must report, for soon he would die.
- The radio came on, the message was fast.
- "Come Kotoshi and Bebop, on Twisted and Crash.
- To the top of my sector I'm in 2 comma 2.
- Hurry Grey Eagle, and Bushwacker too.
- The fighters came down, their tracers flashed red.
- Scavenger knew, he soon would be dead.
- The flames then burst from the front of his Zero
- Yes, he would die, but die as a hero.
- As he started to burn he heard so much chatter
- He listened to hear what could be the matter.
- The radio broadcasted, the words he most feared.
- Scav, reported the wrong sector, no bombers are here.
- His earphones turned red as his Commander exclaimed
- This could cost us the battle, God, Dweebs are a pain!
