Gunnery Sergeant Warren B. Jones

“Gunny,” Quinn said.

“Need a break?” Jones asked, walking over.

Quinn squeezed off another shot before looking back and smiling. “Not yet, Gunny. I just wanted to let you know that Sergeant Mason is out on the roof.”

“What?” Jones stepped up to the window and looked up. Sure enough, he could make out Mason’s giant, solid frame silhouetted against the night sky. “What the fuck is he doing up there?” Jones watched as Mason crawled to the edge.

“Gunny?” Mason called.

“Yeah.”

“We’re surrounded.”

Jones shook his head. “Completely?”

“Yeah.”

“Fuck.”

“Yeah.”

“Okay,” Jones said. “What else are you seeing up there?”

“Looks like they don’t even try to walk around the fallen,” Mason said. “They just step right over them, or trip. I think I even spotted a couple of Marines in the crowds as well. Just the shape, you know? But they’re either our men, or another platoon that’s made contact.”

“Okay,” Jones said. “Maybe we can scrape up some more ammo after. Be careful up there, though. I’m not sure how well these gook houses are built.”

“Well, I haven’t fallen through yet,” Mason laughed. Another marine appeared beside him on the roof.

“Who the hell’s that?” Jones asked.

“Liskow,” Mason answered. “He’s going to try out one of the Chink rifles, see how well it works.”

“Sounds good. Make sure that one of you takes the north approach though. I don’t want too many on one side and coming up to bite us in the ass.”

“Understood, Gunny,” Mason laughed, and Jones stepped back into the center of the house. Quinn started humming an Irish jig as he returned to shooting, his pace slow and smooth and steady. Nicky and Addie sat beside him, reloading clips and handing them up as needed.

Jones sat down.

“Sergeant Mason says that we’re surrounded, in case you couldn’t hear him,” Jones said, “and I doubt that we’ve got enough ammunition to stop them all before they get here. They don’t seem to care too much that we’re killing them, again, which means that it’s going to come down to hand to hand, and I want you to remember this: they’re going to be trying to eat you. We all saw that. They won’t be trying to subdue you, kill you, take your weapon away or anything.” Jones looked at each man in turn, even Quinn glancing back at him. “They just want to eat you, which means if they get a hold of your arm, they’re going to bite it. Hand, head, leg, foot, it’s all the same to them, it’s meat. You’re meat, I’m meat. That’s it. From what we’ve seen, they just eat, and only if you’re fresh.

“I don’t know what these fucking things are. We all know the fucking Russians have something to do with it, so it can’t be good. There is one good thing, though,” he said.

“What’s that, Gunny?” Gordon asked.

Jones grinned. “At least the fuckers aren’t shooting at us.”
