Who called from 2102211111

This number is listed at http://www.usarec.army.mil/armypa/onlineapplication.htm It's an application for "Interservice Physician Assistant Program"

This is the DSN number for the 187th Medical Battalion at Ft. Sam.


If you get this number on your phone and know someone overseas, answer it.

I think there are two things going on here.

First, this is a legitimate number from Ft. Sam Houston (medical division). It can be placed on the automated programming or be live. It is programmed to call those with pending medical appointments to remind an eligible subscriber of a future appointment.

With regard to actual calls on the live line, I think someone (not necessarily a military member, remember there MANY civilian employees working within the confines of DOD), is bored with their overnight shift and is calling for their own entertainment. That should be unacceptable but remember, civilians are well protected by their union AND it would be quite a difficult challenge to prove it's happening. It would take a kind of "class A" type action to level a charge against this employee.

I am open to legitimate correction.

Although it shows my post is a reply to a specific individual, that was not the intention. (Sorry)

Why the assumption that it was a civilian employee?  Odds are if the phone line is located at Ft Sam, it could be a civilian employee, a DOD contractor, a member of the military, it could be lots of people.
