“We will be separated into groups? This is outrageous.” The first day had not quite begun and Azeviche was not satisfied. There was something odd about that place,she could smell it in the air. Everything was new, Norma Steinfeld ran the camp with an iron fist;this was a military camp not an orphanage.She made it very clear by telling the alumni that the boys wouldn't sleep in the same building as the girls. “Not on my watch,” It was the first thing she said on opening day, when all the students lined up, facing the pole with the flag of the northern islands, ready to sing the national anthem.The patio was full of children,newly admitted to Muddy Peaks.They were all in uniform for one reason and one reason only.They were there to be trained. To become soldiers. to be prepared to ... war.
