It's pretty funny how I read Redd's story and thought that maybe I should throw my hat into the ring and see what I can come up with. The only problem was that I had to put it up on my 'Stack, and I'd just released my chapter for Jack of Diamonds. I was thinking people might be pissed if I put something else out at the same time. And I ended the story like that so the reader could decide whether the attacking "Ammos" would make it through the Shield. Maybe he has something of a death wish, because he'd lost his child in an attack years before? Maybe they don't make it through the Shield? Maybe the help does finally come?

So … there’s more right? Loved the cameraderie (I know I spelt that wrong) between the doc and the colonel.

Yowza! Pretty exciting stuff, Ben! I confess, I did not understand the last three sentences, but I would sure like to know what happened to the Colonel!
