There is a slight shake of his head.

  ..He still go the other Frenchie in there... we'll have to see what he has elarned   from his comrade's mistakes.

 He nods to the   Bid Board,..The LC was going to take the frenchman, But Howe  insisted he stay in his  flight  for now, we'll have to see if that's good or bad. Musette is going to have  to integrate himself into the  crew..he doesn't have  La Trulle's  mouth  around any longer.

Justin glances at the board. Hopefully the guy will get with the program and lift his game Quickly attending to the minor task Morris assigned to him there was nothing more he could do, so he made his way over to the fighter bays.

Pausing to watch the flight crew change the colouring, name and decals on the frenchies Dart.

   While Justin watched the  people getting the  new pilot's  ride, repainted, Morris looked up at him, over the   rim of his glasses.

  ..somthing you won't see too often, Ensign. A ship that lost it's pilot..its  rare..but somewhat sad, none the less

In reply to shed (msg # 10):

Aye Sir, its a pitty the frenchies didn't have the innards to match his mouth or pockets. Still he may change in the mines sufficiently to redeem himself; if his wingman  has any sense he'll benefit from the lesson and shape up.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<  Alex , from Hanger Dec

  Approaching the   small  dark shed, Andrew  walk by the   Hermes Fighters, Orange suited crew members are crawling all over them... while welders and melders   flash and spark, and the  whine and grind, of  Hyper driver  and Hydro drivers work

  The mech shop seems about  empty. two riders  are   cleaning up  Mechs, that didn't seem to have seen action this  time around.

  outside the Shed are two boards..one is  digital  that has  the Hermes Fighter pilot's Kills

  The other  is Morris's Big board that  shows   the flights and who is in them

    Two crewman Leave  Morris's Shed as  Andrew approaches. The older  Blackman with  grey on  the side of his   dark hair, a cane rests  against the desk.

Alexander enters the shed looking for Andrew and if/once and approaches him.
"Are you captain Morris ? I am the new combat computer tech, my instructions where to come here and speak to you."

    Morris looked up, as if waiting for the salute. His   uniform was  crisp  his hat on a side  table.. the Sam Browne Belt  as polished as his boots.

    He had his hand out for left hand out for the Disc...Welcome  aboard.....  You will be assigned to the boarding Parties  and away teams... that is  amost always under the  Command Of SGT Major Spencer..... your  ...on board duties  will be in the SEC office , where  you can hone your Skills... Lt Beth Morrow is  our Lead COM tech Offcier and is assigned to SEC... try not  to make the girl angry..she's.....a bit touchy?..Hmmm?


  As he  Runs the  disc  through, he says,..says here.. you come right out of bootcamp..to a transportbase.... thier rules arn't much different  then here.... sidearm, bootknife at all times.. you may have one long arm  in your quarters... anything else you pick up or buy, you have to store in the QM's locker..

  Your Quarters will be ready shortly ( use Non-com thread) your  name  will be in the lighted box  above the key pad... make your password before you enter. Until then?  the LC is  having the 'after party on the Rec Dec.. you can get a free meal and drink on him...

"Thank you sir, I will keep this in mind." he also salutes and curses himself mentally "Any other things I need to know ?"

   Morris  smiles  at the salute and returns it,..not really..its  a dsamn big ship..try not to get lost... a  week or so?..you'll feel right at home....Carry on PO.....

"Yes sir," Alex would say before make a 180 turn and leaving the shack

  The Older  Black man sat at his  desk, still wearing his dress uniform with   a Ton of metals on his chest. His Blue MAx  around his neck.

  He Got a Beep on his COM, to let him know a New Pilot was on the way.

From Med Tech
Justin hobbled from the Med Teck facility and headed towards Morris's shed to give him a summary brief of Garrat's and His assignment, which he'd follow up with a detailed written report. Entering the shed he stood at attention albeit favouring his uninjured leg.

  Morris looks up at Justin, ..hello kase..... He puts up his hand  as Justin starts to  talk,...you are talking about SEC Ops...  , Kase? We don't talk SEC  things here....

  ...  I just got a ping from the Chief on the Hanger  Dec?  Seems  we got a transfer out..and a transfer in to the  Pilots...

In reply to Morris (msg # 20):

Yes Sir, sorry Sir. Thank you for letting me know. he replied. Nodding at the news of the transfers. He suspected the outgoing was the test Pilot returning to Fuji with the Bee's Assessment.

----> Hangar Dec 6

After taking her time to admire the neat line of fighters out in the hangar, taking a particular interest in the Hammer V's, Harriet would knock on the Shed's door before entering and saluting the room's occupants, though she assumed it was the older of the two officers she had been sent to report to "Ensign Lynch, reporting for duty"

 Morris held out his hand  for her  disc,..ahh.. welcome to the Hermes.... There is a Coffee pot, and hot water  for  tea.. and some  bottled water  and softdrinks in the  fridge....

  Copying the  disc on  one computer  as he   read the information on another,..so?... you are basicly new... your  hours have been kept  down?... That isn't surprising  after what i have seen at Admiral Sevente's Party.

..The  LC.... He normally takes the  newer pilots  for a bit...  and  then lets them go to  other flights once they get thier wings under them.

 I'll let you know   what machine is yours as soon as   i sift through the transfers...

 He  waves in Justin's   direction,..this  is Ensign Kase.

In reply to Harry (msg # 23):

Welcome aboard Ensign Lynch. I'm Justin Kase. he introduces extending a hand in greetings; his mid Western American accent defining his Country of origin. What do you think of the Birds lined up on deck? he asks chinning towards the Fighters.

Handing over her disc Harriet awkwardly shuffles her feet at the mention that she'd only had the bare minimum of hours whilst serving at Etna "I...um...made a rather poor career move involving my former CO so...um...yeah he didn't really like me" she quietly responded with the slightest of flushes on her cheeks, hoping that the captain would catch her drift so she didn't have to openly admit to what she'd done to upset him.

However her lack of hours didn't seem to be an issue as she was then introduced to Ensign Kase "wow...they make them big where you come from don't they?" Harriet joked as she shook Justin's hand, the guy was easily a foot taller than she was "It's a pleasure to meet you Justin, call me Harry...or Harriet if you insist on being formal" though the glint in her icy blue eyes said that the latter would probably be a mistake "So tell me Justin, what's the LC like? I'd hate to upset the guy on my first day"

  Morris   smiled a  tight  smile as he  handed her back  the disc.....aye... that seems  to be a problem no matter  where you are at in  The Black..or how many years  you go down  the  trail...

 He   adds  as he looks at his  screens,..The  LC...is somewhat involved in an op, right now.. when he gets  back to The Hermes I will talk to him about  Your Posting...  Enisgn Kase is in B  Flight.. he  can take your  Down to look over the   aircraft

 Looking at his s creen   and   splitting that to another  he adds,we have a  few pilots transfering, and we are Movong  folks around... We had a test Pilot here... for .. a very brief  period.. She  Flew  the New  Bee, that was  made and tested  on Fuji   and the Training  Grounds...... we  might send  The Bee off to the LG  until more   test flying can be done?... If you are interested in The Bee, Justin might show it off to you.... If you want to Fly a Dart, we'll have to see how the 'shell game' works out, as we move  pilots  around  for the sake of Transfers.

 ..Outisde the Shed you'll see the Kill list... and  My  'Big Board'... i'll contact you as soon as we know what your Ride is... Unless you think you want  to Try  the Bee

Justin noted Harry's suggested name preference, nodding an acknowledgement. Her choice of name revealed simething of her character, espechially the choice of the masculine. Quietly waiting for any other questions from Harry or comments from Captain Morris, before escorting Harry to the flight bays.

"Oh...well I can't ask for fairer than that" Harry replied as she was informed that the LC would see her later once he was finished with his OP. She was also quietly relieved to find the Captain understood why she'd asked for the transfer and that it didn't seem to be a problem, with him suggesting that Justin took her into the hangar to check out the fighters "Sure, sounds like a plan to me" she said eager to take a look at the long row of fighters she'd seen whilst leaving the transport.

She quietly listened as the pilot situation was explained to her and that she'd have to wait and see what she'd get unless..."Wait you're saying that I could... fly the Bee?...even with my low hours?" she asked in a surprised voice. The prospect of flying an experimental craft was daunting but...the opportunity was almost too good to miss.

In reply to Harriet Lynch (msg # 28):

Justin gave Harry a slight smile pleased she had been offered the roll; however based on what he'd just heard she'd need to put in some extra work to get upto speed. Anticipating that the possibility he be assigned to mentor her until Shadow was free Permission for myself and Ensign Lynch to get some additional flight hours Sir. he requested.

  Morris's  eyes shifted towards   Justin, there was a slight  curl of a smile on the left side of hos   Mustache'ed lip.

  ..ensign Kase seems to  enjoy  trying to log extra  hours.... But when we are in port?.. its a bit  hard.... I'm sure  you saw the  Fleet scattered between  Enta  and  its  two planets... we have  shuttles transports   and  Enta's own ship flying around out there.... I am afraid, Unless you can get the LC to sign off on it... you may have to  make do with Sims.

Justin appeared slightly deflated as he tried not to let the Captains answer bother him. He was certain the LC would want Harry to chalk up more hours; however that was generally under his discerning eye. Sending the LC a request when  he's othetwise occupied may be a career decision. Having made enough of those already Justin wasn't about to try.  Aye, aye, Sir.
