He simply got up and left, rolling his eyes as soon as he had turned his back on Greathouse
He walked around the marine deck to see if they were training like they were supposed to. Also to show off his new promotion

Marc looked at the new rank pin and said with a smile. It looks like nowadays they'll promote anyone in this man's corps. Seriously, congratulations Lieutenant it was well deserved and long overdue. I was here to show the Counselor around the deck and show her how you 'ground pounders do business'. Does the Colonel have an insertion team on standby?

"Quite a promotion." She smiled. "Congratulations." She's love to ask him how he was handling the change. There was a culture associated with NCO's and one with officers and a wide gap between them. How did his Marines feel about him having made the jump as a mustang and how did he feel now that officer's pips separated him from them?

As a matter of fact I was hoping you might want to show us around. I'm sure Xena'd like to know the lay of the land.

Seems Flame was the first to see his promotion and came over to congratulate him, followed by Gears, and Angle. He smiled at their praise and felt humbled by it "Thank you all, but it's really no big deal. I'm just the same person.. just with more rank"
A few moment later, he heard Greathouse's voice boom out over the deck and he snapped directly to attention, falling into line

Nemi smiled, feeling a bit uncomfortable. This was the sort of thing generally reserved for the "Brass", high ranking or inspecting officers. "Lieutenant, I don't want to disrupt your routine."She watched as the team formed up.

Right now we have half this ship on standby. If you a familiar with the now defunct game of 'baseball' , You are taught not to sit in the batters box so long that you tense up too much. If Greathouse and his men didn't have something like this to break up the monotony, the men would be more on edge. I'm doing the same with mine. Thirteen hours is a long time. He smiles as the follows Greathouse. So you can see that this actually a therapeutic exercise.

"Point taken." She laughed. "Please proceed with your therapy, Lieutenant Greathouse."
