And Ralph could see it on her face as they drove to the same place they had gone with Bill, and Ralph was suddenly sorry he had brought her.

I'm sorry, Pax. I shouldn't have done this to you. I just wasn't thinking. It's okay. She patted his arm, and readjusted her backpack.

She kept some notes in it, and a few things, like her canteen and a first aid kit. Like the troops, she still carried her suntan cream and her insect repellent in her helmet. I'm fine, she said, but she was lying, as they got out of the jeep again. She was sad, and she was thinking of him as she suddenly collided with someone who almost knocked her off her feet and then caught her before she fell. Shit . the voice said as she stumbled in midair, and then he caught her. And as she turned, she saw that it was Tony Campobello. Hi, she said shyly, trying to regain her composure.

Ralph was already talking to someone else, and the photographer was II' reloading his camera. I didn't mean to knock you down just now... sorry . And then, with a slow smile that lit his dark eyes like embers, I seem to be saying that to you a lot these days. You get home okay the other night?

He was nervous and tense, but he was also smart, and quick, and sharp, and he cared intensely about the people around him, and everything that happened to them. I slept for about twenty hours after I left you, she explained. I didn't even bother to take my clothes off. That's about how you looked. He smiled, watching the pain in her eyes. It was rough for her coming back here and he knew it. It was hard for him too. Everywhere he went, he was reminded of the men he had loved and lost. There were ghosts everywhere for him, and for most of them if they stayed in Nam for long enough. There were good memories, too, but there were 50 many sad ones. How are the vegetables here today? She smiled back at him, lightening the moment. A look had passed between them that said they both missed Bill, and for a crazy instant she wanted to reach out and touch him. Pretty fresh, he laughed, and was surprised that she'd remembered the details of their conversation, and then he sobered again. So are the snipers. We've got to look out to the east. We've been getting some pretty lively action. One of my boys got hit in the arm a few hours ago. Nothing much, fortunately, he was pretty lucky.

We've been keeping down ever since then. Keep well back when you go out to look at the tunnels. He had heard why they were there, and his CO had told him to give them every cooperation.
