Wow! I just remembered that I also carried a .45 and ammo when I performed Charge of Quarters(CQ) duty.

The last 45 days I was in the Army, I no longer went to the missile site. Every other night I did CQ duty from the end of the regular duty day, 5PM as I recall, until after formation the next morning, about 6:30AM or so. When I was headed for the orderly room for duty I stopped by and drew a .45 and ammo.

My job was to be there all night and basically keep the drunks from keeping the whole place awake. As a junior NCO with over two years in rank, they trusted me with a .45 and ammo on the post. Why can they not do this now?
