Somehow, word got out that Bill Greyson, who had been convicted of several sexual assaults on women, had been released from confinement by the Corrections Service. Fortunately, especially for the Disciplinary & Retraining Unit of the Service, and for SFCs Nicole and Cynthia, especially, the media did include the fact that he was closely monitored and was required to report to the Service no less frequently than every other day.
MAJ Kate called 1SG Wendy in to consider where the situation in view of this furor; they were joined by Kate's deputy, CPT Elaine.
"Under the circumstances, Kate," Elaine said, "we've fared decently in the media. They did emphasize that he is being closely monitored and has to report at least every other day. I think SFCs Nicole and Cynthia have done an excellent job with him and we should let them know that they do have our full support."
Wendy spoke next and agreed with Elaine. "Everything has been done according to the regs," she noted. "I think we're in a good position and in fact, this can redound to our benefit because it sets the stage for less excitement when and if he is fully released--of course, supervised release does have to continue for a decent amount of time."
MAJ Kate then reminded them that they were going to be on the hot seat.
"I guess this would happen whenever the Service releases any celebrated inmate," she said. "I don't especially enjoy being on the hot seat, of course, and I would prefer it if it didn't get out that Nicole and Cynthia were undergoing disciplinary retraining right before they received this assignment. Now, I do like the idea that if we have to say anything, we can state that they were veteran officers assigned to this case based on their experience and recent retraining."
She ended the meeting by assuring Elaine and Wendy that she was pleased with the way this had been run. They deserved as much credit as Nicole and Cynthia did, and she would make sure that they would receive it at the proper time.
Wendy thanked her for her support, and rose, saluted, and left the office. Elaine smiled at Kate and said that she did have confidence in Nicole, because when she was charged with a tough assignment, she overcame her not so good habits.
"I'm going out on a limb," Kate told her, "because as you know I have good reason to be skeptical of her capability. But I will concede that she and Cynthia have shown their mettle here. I'm going to approve their promotion to SFC because they've shown they can handle the responsibility. Would you have Wendy see to drawing up the papers for me and then we'll have them in here for a meeting with just you and me."
"Yes, I certainly will, Chief," Elaine said with very warm feelings. "I'm pleased that you are willing to do this, because I agree that you had good reasons to hold off. This will definitely improve morale, and not just theirs."
Elaine stood, saluted, and moved to leave.
"Thanks for the respect, Elaine," Kate told her as she smiled, "but I don't want you to have to do that; sure, if others are around, but between us, you can skip it."
"I really do appreciate your confidence, Kate," Elaine responded. "Thank you so much."

Nicole and Cynthia were just finishing up their paperwork in the room they shared. CPT Elaine knocked on the door and they welcomed her.
"I have some good news for both of you," an exuberant Elaine said with a smile.
Nicole gave her an inquisitive look and Cynthia wasn't sure what was happening.
"The Major has approved your promotions to Sergeant First Class, ladies," Elaine told them, and they couldn't resist cheering and then hugging Elaine.
"Wow," Nicole reacted. "I'm pleased and a little surprised, because I had given her good reason to kick me down to Corporal." Cynthia fell silent.
"I'll have you know," Elaine told them, "that she mentioned that she had reason not to approve it, but that she was of the view that you both had performed very well and so that was what she wanted to focus on. By the way," she added, "there will be a meeting with her, and I will be there, no one else, not even Wendy. Just be sure to remember that you have to be on your best behavior. Don't take this as an insult; I'm just telling you this so this goes off well as it should."
"Thanks, Captain," Nicole responded. "Can we give you a hug and a kiss? You've been great at looking out for us and we know that at times we haven't deserved it, so here's a real thank you." Both sergeants now hugged Elaine and kissed her lightly on her lips.
Nicole wanted to invite Elaine to stay over with them in their room so they could really show their appreciation, but she thought Elaine would bow out because she would be in big trouble for fraternization with noncoms if any word got out. Nevertheless, Nicole made the invitation anyway.
"I'm going to surprise both of you," Elaine answered with a grin. "I'll rely on you to keep that door locked no matter who turns up. And you have to do one thing for me. Tell me honestly if you have been, shall I say, extra considerate as part of your retraining of Mr. Greyson."
Both sergeants' faces colored. Nicole knew that Elaine had sussed them out.
"I hope that you didn't find out about that from anyone, Captain," Nicole said. "Because if you did, then that person has a threat to hold over us."
"No," Elaine assured them, "I did put two and two together. Don't worry, no one else knows Sure, some might suspect something. But Nicole, you have a good reputation for being a nasty--you know what I mean, and they all saw you cane Greyson, and you didn't shrink from coming down hard on him."
Elaine reiterated that she had no intention of saying anything about this to anyone. Then she said she'd like to spend the night here with them if they still wanted her to stay.
Cynthia smiled and took Elaine in her arms and hugged her. Then she began to undress the Captain gently and slowly. Elaine was a stocky woman in her forties and as her blouse was unbuttoned, her skirt unzipped, and both slipped off, her utilitarian lingerie--plain white bra and full-brief panties--were what she still had on after Nicole helped her shed her uniform shoes and heavy-duty hose.
"We're going to get you some new lingerie," Nicole said with a smile. "You're too good to wear this frumpy stuff."
Elaine was a little embarrassed now. She remembered how stylish Kate's lingerie had been when they had enjoyed each other in Kate's quarters before Elaine had been attracted to join the unit as the major's deputy.
Trying not to show emotion, she managed to get out a thank-you: "I really would be pleased, ladies, if you helped me update my lingerie wardrobe. Seeing you and what you wear has made me more aware of this. I was off in the boondocks for so long I forgot what modern women's fashions were like."
Nicole now came over and kissed her sweetly and unhooked her bra, releasing her massive tits. Then Cynthia casually slipped down Elaine's panties and the two of them opened Nicole's bed for her to get under the covers now that she was in the nude.
Nicole preferred all women to men, so she moved down between Elaine's legs and began to tease her by softly rubbing her labia and penetrating her vaginal opening with her finger, then two. Elaine felt herself getting warmer than she had been in a long time. She had never been intimate with Nicole back at Hergolia camp when Elaine was commandant and Nicole a staff sergeant.
Nicole was now in just her panties and was applying her tongue to Elaine's vulva--moving up from her vaginal opening along her labia to the tip of her clit. Then she put her harness with strap-on on and went between Elaine's spread legs.
"How long has it been, Captain, since you had someone's strap-on or finger or a cock in your cunt?" Nicole asked her in a warm way, without trying to embarrass her.
"I guess I don't kiss and tell," Elaine grinned, "but it has been some months, I'm sorry to say, and it was playing in bed with two other women in the Service."
"We'd like to make you feel better all round," Nicole suggested by way of a response. "You're so nice and so able that we want to do something for you."
