Lieutenant William O'Hara
Guest
O'Hara felt decidedly uncomfortable standing in the middle of an Air Force base, not wearing a proper uniform. Sure, he looked like a soldier: it wasn't like he was knocking on the door dressed in civvies or anything like that. But this sort of official situation called for a proper uniform; duty blues, or at the very least an actual outfit with US Air Force printed on it. The gear that Vanguard issued was good gear, and perfectly suited for the kind of work that it did, but at times it made him feel like some sort of skeevy mercenary, rather than a legit American soldier.
He'd abandoned his team at the airfield, and had appropriated one of the jeeps from the base car pool in order to get here. It was amazing what a few phone calls and the right set of names dropped to the right people could do: Colonel Hunter had everything in hand by the time he arrived. It was impressive really, when you thought about it; he often wondered how in the hell a career fighter pilot managed to get so damned organised. He'd have to ask one day, maybe.
He frowned a little; he'd rapped his knuckles against the door a few moments ago. He'd checked with base security and Myers was definately on the base, and there was a car parked in the driveway. Yet, no one had made it to the door.
He pounded his fist against the woodwork again. "Captain Myers, sir," he shouted, hoping his voice would carry into the rooms beyond. "This is Lieutenant William O'Hara. It's very urgent that I speak with you, sir."
