Travel

In all my days as a Marine, I've never quite seen a system of official military travel like this.  Usually if there's some kind of training or conference you're supposed to go to the admin shop will get you set up for it.  Here it's a little different.  You have a couple of web based processes to go through but you essentially write your own orders. If you can route the travel request through your supervisor and he or she buys off on it, away you go.  I've also never seen conferences, like the one in Germany I'm soon to go to, that don't have some kind of official attendee list and travel instructions and such.  I guess I just get off the plane in Stuttgart and meander on over to conference.  Strange.
