Status Updates From Basic Training

I am LOVING this read!!! It's for W&K ("very British"), I can use it as a re-read BUT-- most importante!-- the story is about two soldiers 'having it on' the sly! It encompasses several yrs. YAY!

Rereading this, hopefully as good as I remember..

'Lieutenant Colonel Grenville shook Col’s hand firmly once more, then turned to Chris. “You chose a good partner, Thompson. This man will never let you down.”' - This is such a big, meaningful moment!!

This is EXACTLY how a gay husband often feels at a public event. So spot on!

Wow, this is incredibly good!!!

Aarg, YES, we want to be in a relationship with you, even if you're 'old', retired and what-not. Just saying...

How can a seasoned guy like Col, who trained countess recruits, be so insecure in his private life? The age gap is NOT that big a deal unless he makes it one.

'For one moment Col felt as if no time had passed, until he saluted Chris. A sign of how much his whole life had been turned upside-down.' - I'm close to tears again, damn ;-)

' “Why the hell would I want to do something that you find hard to stomach when all it gives me is a quick thrill and an orgasm?”' - Listen and learn, Dan... I know, wrong book, but still ;-)

' “Perhaps, but you obviously need to hear it and because you obviously mean so much to him. You’re his partner.” Col fidgeted, but said nothing. Partner. Was he?' - Awesome story, I'm so impressed!

' Chris’ uncle got up first and stepped towards Col, holding his hand out. “It’s good to see you again, Sergeant Wilson.” Col cringed, but shook Andrew’s hand. “Just Col, please. I really don’t want to be reminded of my job right now.”'

'"Are you insane? I am not going to fuck with you while your aunt and uncle are around.” “Why not?” “Because I am not goddamned seventeen anymore!”' - Gets better and better ;-)
