Nesota got assigned to the Kabray Defense Force’s 92nd Platoon as the Commanding Officer of the Beta Squadron. While her superiors mostly looked down upon a female CO (something that was often demonstrated through the inspection results she received), she nonetheless persevered, refusing to allow that to be a barrier to her progression.
The first weeks as the CO of Beta Squadron proved to be most interesting. The soldiers under her command, be it only 10, showed quite some trouble following the orders given to them by a female CO, someone they probably saw as inferior. At first, Nesota never really bothered much. They checked every order with Corporal Kinnsley, her Second-in-Command that wasn’t really friendly towards her either, but the orders were done anyway, be it not directly, but they were done.
The real shock came when the inspection arrived again, only to find the men under her command very displeased with her command capabilities. While she had expected support from her Platoon Lieutenant, she was utterly shocked when she found herself called a bad commander in front of her own troops, who found it very amusing to find her reprimanded in such a way. He pushed her over her limits when he also demoted her back to the rank of Private in that same furious rant, something that made her barge out of the conversation holding back her tears. Ex-Sergeant Nesota Kynnovan sent her resignation letter to the KDF Headquarters that same day, not wanting to be in an Army like that any longer.
Her father couldn’t really hide his pleasure or relief too well when he heard Nesota had quit the KDF and was back home again. It was something that made her mother immediately disconnect the holo-transmission to him with a furious look being the last thing he saw. Her military career with the KDF hadn’t lasted for a year and it had driven Nesota into a huge depression the moment she returned home, her biggest dream destroyed.
