Contact. Wait Out. #62 Badmin on exercise got me like...

Somebody commented on a friend of mine's hair recently and that gave me the idea for this strip. I was just going to draw him with Dragon Ball Z hair but then I decided to do the whole thing in the style.

Basically, Matt had some serious exercise hair going on and whenever he took his helmet off, we were confronted with this. Sorry Matt.

The subject deals with those moments in the field when you think everything is going great, and you're doing your part, but somebody does something that makes it fall apart. It is bad admin (badmin) and it can really break up the momentum. It can take many forms but it usually manifests its self in an officer. If it were left to exercising troops, the chances are that we'd kick mucho ass on the way to winning the blank firing war. Doesn't that just sound so manly? Of course it doesn't but you catch my drift.

Let's hear it for Toms, junior NCOs, and the seniors that graft. By the way, I have no idea what Dragon Ball Z is other than manga characters with crazy hair and super powers. Please don't feel the need to educate me on this.
