Lieutenant assumes Warrant officer must be at work if his hat's here

FORT DRUM, NEW YORK — Army Lt. James Whetmore of 2nd Battalion, 10th Combat Aviation Brigade is certain Chief Warrant Officer 3 Donny Johnson must be present for duty today.

"I haven't seen Johnson today, but he must be hard at work doing something," said Whetmore this morning. "I mean, it's 1000 and his hat's on his desk, so he must be somewhere in the hangar. I know I told him to finish up that sensitive items inventory, so he must be doing that."
