As long as Kathy was never trained in field expedient explosives, we're all right

She was apparently an aircraft tech and (possibly) ordnance tech.

Zoomie ordinance techs don't play with their toys, they just install/service them

Bored Castela... can anything good come of this?

As long as she avoids exploding things out of existence.

I foresee a discussion of the "right way, wrong way, military way" concept.

Well since i was one of those USAF Techs (ICBM"S) i can tell you if she has her hands on a copy like one i umm forgot to turn in yea, lets go with that, then it reads like a cross between the boy scout manual and the poor mans james bond.

Boy this brings back memories of the Supply Sgt on the other end of the duplex giving me copies of PM Magazine when i was in 1st grade. That was the year I field stripped and reassembled an M60 at Armed Forces Day at Schofield Barracks and got my picture in the Army Times. Quite a coup for a Navy Brat.

Changed since my dad was an Air Corps ordnance tech in WW2

Then, might I recommend The Lone Gladio?

It's a “fictitious" spy novel about Operation Gladio's plan B written by a former CIA analyst.

Here's the blurb:
Assassinations. Drug running. False flag ops. A shadow paramilitary global network. Synthetic wars. CIA-NATO: A darker truth. Operation Gladio Plan B: Murder.

I've gotta get me one of those...

Parents should never send their bored child to find a book on their personal shelves without supervision. I discovered some...interesting...reading as a child that way. That said, I'm intrigued by where this might go.

I wonder what books are in Castela's collection? I'd suggest Gerald McDermott's books like "Arrow To The Sun", "The Magic Tree". I've always loved Daniel Pinkwater's "The Big Orange Splot."

I found Doc Smith and the Saint that way.

Also Thorne Smith.

I learned about the birds and the bees before my parents were ready for me to learn that way...and then some. Lol...I guess that's what happens when you store the educational book you bought to share with your daughter in the same place as your raunchy romances.

I loved that book! Oh, the joy of giving the MOS Library sergeant a list of numbers and having him get them for you without ever noticing what they were. I don't much miss that post, but I miss that sergeant!

trust me, just get a copy of The Poor Man's James Bond. of course nothing in that book should be used or made or created or anything else that means dont do it you can think of. lol

So where do you think she's going to settle? There's so many age-inappropriate books a precocious child with the potty mouth of a salty sailor can settle on!
