***2 Mai 2005 – Another patrol

 

Today we got another patrol, RK-379 leaded it. This was an ordinary patrol just like the others.. stunning, beating up and fining some seditious civilians, calling names to aliens, ID checks..

Again there was this rug.. this wookie. It was harassing us so we stunned it several times. I seemed to be the only one able to understand it and it said bad things. It begged to be enslaved or executed, I wondered why my superiors didn’t give me such an order. Let the wookie go… if I was leading this patrol..

 

In the medcentre RK-379 ordered us to shoot some animal, some cat. I don’t now why he did this, apparently I hadn’t paid much attention to what had happened just before this.. so that I knew why he wanted us to shoot that thing. But well, I’m just a cadet and I only obey orders.

 

That’s the easy thing about being the lowest in rank. You don’t need to think you only do what your superiors ask you to do.. and if you just do this you are not responsible for your actions. They are.
The Twi'lek started protesting and we had to stun her as well as some boy and another doctor.. I recognized this man. It was the same doctor that I had to shoot in the knees several weeks ago. I stared at the three, that were lying on the ground, together with the bleeding gurrcat. I felt sad for a bit but managed to supress this feeling within a second. I was about to become a stormtrooper and stormtroopers don't have emotions.

 

Later, after hours of patrolling, I got another patrol as part of my training. Stage 3..

I had to follow HK-619 on a patrol and watch his actions. Again we went to the medcentre. The boy that had been stunned only about an hour ago together with the two doctors came to us and expressed his disagreement with the stunning action, but after HK-619 threatened to fine him or put him in jail for a long time he walked away silently.

 

 

Now I have stage 3 field training too. I only need one more, stage 4, and then I hope to finally have become a ST too.. like the others like my friends.
