Is a far cry from AWOL. Too bad you never served or you would know that.



"has not been observed" (at an ordered posting) = AWOL...at best.

"Has not been observed" is the line used by his reporting official. All it
means is that Bush wasn't working for him.

When someone I was reporting on was TDY and I remained at home station I would
enter "not observed during this period" if I needed to account for the time.

You would know this if you had ever been in a supervisory or management
position and had to write performance reports.
