632　Base Commander's Mother 基地司令官的妈

Tax day—April 15—was looming when an elderly woman showed up at my desk at the IRS. She said she required a thick stack of tax forms. “Why so many?” I asked. “My son is stationed overseas,” she said. “He asked me to pick up forms for the soldiers on the base.” “You shouldn't have to do this,” I told her. “It's the base commander's job to make sure that his troops have access to the forms they need.” “I know,” said the woman. “I'm the base commander's mother.”

报税的日子4月15日快到了。一个老妇人来到我在国税局的办公桌前。她说她需要一厚打报税表格。我问：“为什么要这么多？”她说：“我的儿子在海外驻军。他让我替基地的士兵们拿表格。”我告诉她说：“你不需要这么做。这是基地司令官的职责，保证他的部队有他们需要的表格。”老妇人说：“我知道。我就是基地司令官的妈。”
