The Memoirs of Lieutenant Colonel Carl T. LaFong
Preflight Conversations
Talk to Shotglass:
- Major Good to see you.
- I heard about the Gwenhyvar. I never believed that old story, either.
- Anyhow, you heard the latest news? Grapevine says we lost sight of the enemy ships.
- They're out there somewhere, and we can't find them.
- We fly all this way into Kilrathi space, and lose so many people...
- ...and for what? There's no way we can afford to turn back now.
- We'd better find those cats, kill them and get out of here fast---
- ---or we'll be as dead as my cousin, and the rest of the colonists on Goddard.
Talk to Hunter:
- ello, mate. Seen enough action yet?
- Hunter:
- I was telling the Old Man here that Zeta Wing lost a couple pilots today.
- Hunter:
- One of them just went bonkers, flew right at a Fralthi---
- And went up in an explosion that didn't even dent the side of that catbox lorry.
- If we keep losing pilots, there won't be enough of us to fly...
- ...and then it'll be over.
- Paladin:
- And I was just tellin' this haggis-brained lad...
- That there are a few pilots in our OWN squadron that need new pilots' suits.
- Good white ones, with extra-long sleeves.
Talk to Paladin:
- Good to see ye again, lad.
- Listen, do us all a favor, would ye?
- A lot of the pilots have been hearin' that we lost the Kilrathi fleet.
- They're expectin' us to turn tail and run back for Terran space.
- Some of 'em are tickled pink about it.
- Some of 'em are thinking about proppin' a gun 'gainst their chin an' pulling the trigger.
- You tell 'em it's all damned foolishness.
- Colonel Halcyon is a very canny man, the best in the space navy.
- If anyone can find the Kilrathi, he can.
- So if anyone asks you, this is what you should tell them
- This operation isn't over, and we haven't lost it yet.
