So, when I was a young Boy Scout, we used to stay at Air Force base gyms as we travelled to our adventures. We stopped at one (where they had brand shiny new B-1's). Apparently, someone forgot to tell the AF Security guards that there was a Boy Scout troop staying on base. It is quite disrupting to be woken at 0230, with a shotgun in your face and an angry Security Guard!

LT Brad McInnis D'oh! Someone better have gotten their rear chewed for that. There's other ways to handle that than pointing your weapon at a sleeping kid.

Failure to communicate with SF bottom line. "Shotgun" no way, could of had your troop spread Eagle on the floor till more SF arrived. Angry I don't think so. Your troop was quartered on AF base with B1 bombers until verified your troop was cleared to be on base.
