Many US Air Force bases are really just small towns. Word gets around pretty fast.

When a high-level Officer retires there is usually a big to do. Change of Command Ceremony, a party, usually with cake, etc. This takes some time to get together and hopefully his replacement will have enough time to get there.
Usually, the notice of retirement takes place six months to a year in advance.

It was a real surprise when a Colonel, the Base Commander, walked into the retirement office early one Monday morning and told the people he was going to retire, and they asked when.
He told them, "If at all possible, today, make it happen."

Everyone in the office was stunned and the Personnel Commander took him in to an office to talk to him. When they came out the Personnel Commander told the people to get to work on it. I guess they pulled it off.

Later it came out that the Base Commander had to take his 16 year old daughter to the base Emergency Room because she had a Coca Cola bottle in her pussy and couldn't get it out.

The Commander knew word would get around so, he retired.

Omg. Horrific.

Going to edit this since I’m married to a doctor lol. Word getting out at the hospital is really a huge HIPPA violation. If one nurse and doctor knew, well then he would know who spread the word, and who would get their licenses revoked.

Well before the age of HIPPA. Many military bases have limited number of nurses and use Medical Technicians.

People that live in dorms have a tendency to drink and talk.

How many people saw her before the doctor did?
