Henry Blake was sitting behind his desk writing a letter to his eldest daughter. Finally finished, and in an envelope, were letters to his wife and younger daughter. Naturally, the children were only receiving very short notes, but Colonel Blake still struggled with it, wanting to say exactly the right things to his family so far away.

Unfortunately, the sound of his office door opening broke his train of thought and caused him to scratch his pen down the page. With a frown, Henry looked up. “This better be good, Radar… oh!” Standing, confusion settling over him, the man gripped the edge of his desk and wondered desperately where Hawkeye was when he was needed.

“Sending for Captain Pierce now, Sir,” called a young voice from the outer room.

“Yes,” Henry called back, still staring awkwardly at his visitor. “And send for Captain Pierce while you’re at it.”

A very brief pause followed by, “Yes, Sir,” trailed back.

Fidgeting, wishing for a brisk drink suddenly, Colonel Blake stared uncomfortably at Colonel Sam Flagg.
