Ganymede//Bridge (Kliepe)
I am not ready, and my crew is definitely not. I do not exude that sense of confidence that Doc has, and I am sure even he would not if he were in my condition. That fucker- the Corporal- intruded upon a meeting between me and my crew. The asshole will not be able to keep his mouth shut now, I have told Ghost about it. He will monitor Corporal Jackson more closely, and take measures where he sees fit. Honestly I do not like that man. The PELICAN and its crew obey his every wish as if he were their king.
Screw that. I need more practice- the simulator has worked well, though it is different from piloting a jet. My fingers still itch for the controls of a fighter!.. I'm millitary, always have been. Same way Jackal is. We both miss combat, mine in the air.. and his on the ground. I wonder how he found me, though. He has contacts everywhere. He knows everyone, but more importantly, they know him. Where he has been for the past few days, I do not know. The man is Doc's only person he calls friend. So much trust in Jackal. I never understood him until recently.
From what I gather he'd been discharged honorably from the millitary upon request. Why is another matter. He doesn't tell.
Why am I worrying about him? My work is not done; and we fly by the fifteenth. God save us, though I have never been a religious person.
