Well, ladies you worked your magic and I thank you! Just got a phone call that the immediate supervisors sat the other guy down and basically guilted him into "volunteering" to take the deployment. Last year there was another guy that was exempt from going anywhere due to a pending birth, so I think it would have been really tricky to force Jason to go. Now we have to wait for upper command to accept the name. there is always a chance that they could come back with "nay, we want Jason" but I think that would be a long shot. So a half sigh of relief. Lets just hope nobody changes their mind!
What actually ended up happening was our one friend that works with Jason canceled her vacation to Guam to see family she hasn't seen in 9 years, to go on the deployment. the jerk got out of it. She said there was no way she was going to let Jason miss the birth of his baby. I need to do something extra special for her. Any suggestions?

It's good to know there are still some good folks around. I'm not sure what you should do as a 'Thank You' but certainly one is in order!
Re: update on deployment
Yay!! Now if we could just reverse the last 24 hours of stress caused right?
Keeping my fingers crossed that there's no trouble with upper management!
