Just checking to see that the weapons are clean, the area is squared away and the Marines are still "Marining".

They are.

TIME TO REPRINT THIS FOR THE 2007 VETERANS DAY.

In the Navy, the Junior Ensign is responsable for assuring that the clock in the wardroom is always correct. All other "clocks" aboard ship are call chronometers. If said junior Ensign (for those who don't know, Ensign is the lowest commissioned grade in the Navy) fails, then onerous assignments are given to him by the XO who, except on very small ships, is the President of the Mess. The Captain, befitting his station, usually eats alone in is stateroom.

Mustang, find the junior Ensign and have him set the clock...then assign afore mentioned onerous duties.
