Chapter 24

Dean returned to his quarters after the tour to get settled. He still didn’t know the admiral’s name – although he’d seen a last name that started with M stenciled on his fatigues, the well-worn uniform was hard to read. The light gray stenciling easily blended into the black fatigues, so Dean was still in the dark about his commanding officer, but he had liked the man. The admiral seemed friendly, and while Dean knew it could simply be that the admiral was excited about his new ship, it appeared that he was genuinely pleased to have Dean as his Recon officer.

He had dropped his rucksack just inside his quarters without really looking around, so when he returned he was pleased to find that he once again had an office, a bedroom, and his own private bathroom. On the Apache his rooms were in a straight line. From the hallway he entered his office, passed through to the other side to enter his bedroom, and through that small space into the bathroom.

It only took a few minutes to stow his toiletries and arrange his personal belongings in the locker that served as a closet of sorts. The bedroom, while small, had space for a bed which was already made up for him, a chair that looked comfortable enough, and a vid screen on the wall near the storage locker. The lights were motion triggered or operated via voice commands. In his office, he once again had a desk just to the left of the doorway, with two chairs on the far side. The new desk had a touch screen surface which automatically linked with his data pad. The desk was activated with motion controls and utilized a holographic projection system instead of a display. He could bring up a vid feed and launch it into the air right in front of him, or he could just watch it on the surface of his desk, or send it to the blank wall on the other side of the small room which was in fact a large, high resolution vid screen much like the one Colonel Davis had in his office.

The desktop came to life as soon as Dean sat down in his chair. It showed a schematic of the Apache’s Bravo deck, including the names of the officers who had reported in and their respective quarters. Dean scanned the list and was pleased to see Lieutenant Owens’ name. And right across the hall from his rooms Captain Vanessa Parker was listed. Dean was happy to have another senior Recon officer on board and he hoped she would have time to train with his platoon.

There was also a list of messages. Dean had reports waiting to be filed, and an officers’ reception that evening at 1900 hours in the ward room. There were no personal messages, except for a request for Dean to join the admiral at his convenience. Luckily, the admiral’s name was listed in the message, Bradley Masterson. Dean
