   Commanding General Daniel Russell rolled his shoulders and then leaned back in his chair all the while listening intently to his THAF countepart General Sharon Gardbaum. He waited for her to finish then he cleared his throat. "I don't give a damn about the WoB forces that got away. What I am concerned about is the readiness of your troops. Twenty years ago both of our forces were mauled by the RasDom. We have sunk trillions of C-Bills for what? Something to look imposing at dinner? To top it off you lost another thrid of your base forces when Cameron St. Jamais decided to take his ball and go home but where did he go? I will remind you that I not only serve the Hegemony I also am in this chair at the sufferance of the Star League High Council. I may be your boss in theory but the Terran Assembly I'm sure would never allow it in fact. I could be wrong but that is just how I see it."

  Sharon sighed. "I'm just following the Orders of the Minister of Defense, Daniel. Nothing more, nothing less. I will tell you that my troops are ready. Just give the word...I just hope that the diplomats realize that all the shiny new toys mean nothing if the High Council decides not to help the Marians and liberate Niops. Like you sir...my hands are tied. The Assembly will not send troops outside the Hegemony unless the Star League initiates a call for action."
   
   She sat down as Daniel poured to glasses of Glengarry Special Reserve Scotch and set one before her.
