Re: MORRIS' Shed
<<<<<<<<<<< Vaka , from QM
Captain Morris waved Vaka in, one of the new Gaurds were outside his door.Well... settled in , 'eh?... Help your self to coffee , or tea? or one of thsoe cold drinks in the fifge.. there are some pastries if you wish.. this may take a bit as i run you scans through...i sorta have did a round about. Set up your quarters first, this way when we are finished you can get a bit of rest...
Vaka put the thigns he carried next to his weapon, ammo belt and pack that was outside the door., he took a cheery pastry and made himself a very...sweet.. cup op coffee.
Morris had a Cup of tea,, m scanned his wrist.. and watched the pages fill up on his Desktop screen.
..you been in the service for 6 years?...very good... says here... covert observation? You were goign to be a Coast Watcher?
Vaka nodded,In..In training they picked that for me... I wanted to be a Pilot..but they wouldn't let me? said that i wasn't the right 'class' for an Occui Pilot?.. so they sent me to Marines... and i ended up an assault trooper.
Morris didn't react to anything , except to give a nod while his eyes looked over the pages he flicked through.
..you were on Astra?.. you fought the Creshians there..at the Mountain?
..my..my first Jump off... we were droped on the North side of the Mountain..we were supposed to take the gun that was firing on the north troops... but we were swarmed by the UEs? Only 3 of us made it out , , only because Hermes fighters were cleaning off the mountain.. My friend..who was my last SGT.. he got promoted as we Blew up the gun..... the other friend was killed on the way down? .. They blamed me for him dying,,,said i wasn't good enough to see the largran sniper....
..it says here, you offered no defesne tot eh charges that you weren't alert enough?
Vaka shrugged...I was on the left flank... my friend was on the right.. the trooper that died was in the middle... The sniper came from somewhere to the right... Three Humans took it out after it shot, they were combing the mountian in 3's looking for strays?
Morris kept flicking through,..you still offered nor defesne?..and.. it appears you did not share in the 'glory' of takign out an Anti aicraft gun with only 3 troopers?
Vaka sipped from his coffee...My SGT turned in the report... I couldn't refute it, without casting doubt on him..and?... no one would have believed me anyway...i was new..and my family name is now a well liked one....so..i was assigned to my SGT's assault team as a scout... but they only sent me out, when they thought i may not come back.... I am small, Captain Morris...i am not stupid...
Morris nodded again as he read and sipped,..you picked s long row to hoe, Vaka.... I should expect you'll find it a bit more easy going here... SEC troopers are also assault troopers..they get the first tickets aboard a boarding shuttle..The SM is hard... and his people will push you as much as any one... You go on the LC's tunnel runs.. you'll see him to be , as they say..'a proper bastard'.. but you will comer out of this better then you were.. , and from what i have read here.. You seem to be a good match for The Hermes... the questions is? Will you enjoy The Hermes?
..it can't be worse then being on a ship of your own kind, and treated like you were EDT or Empire, just ebcause you'er a lower class..I'll do my Job....if they let me...
..you'll get your chance PVT.... we do not coddle here, nor do we prevebt folks from goign out, Unless med tech says 'no'...
with each page Captain Morris read, he sent that page to Roy's files.
