James R. Giles was as restless as the men on Wideawake airfield that night. He had been hustled below decks, but he knew this was the moment the mission had brought them here to experience. When the ship’s alarm sounded again, he thought he might be hearing an all clear signal, but that was not the case.

“All hands, all hands. Stand to general quarters. This is no drill. Repeat, this is not a drill.”

“They mean get to general quarters again—the real general quarters. They just herded us down here for the damn missile launch. Now they want us back at our regular action stations.”

“At 02:45 in the morning?”

They heard a distant boom, loud and threatening, and instinctively knew it could not be thunder. Seconds passed, and then came the long drone of something heavy falling from the sky, the hard jolt of something striking the wild seas, very near the ship from the sound of things.
