    other women. Parked outside and exposed to the elements, he notices are a big yellow bulldozer, red agricultural tractor and a few assorted trailers. Jack shuts down his 4x4. He feels embarrassed that he is out of breath; the only physical effort he did, was to get out of his car. His headache persists. He notices three women manhandling his trailer. His attempt to walk over and help them is blocked. A well-toned woman, in her thirties, stands in his way. She is looking directly at his discolored lips. “Mr Kowalski,” she begins to formally address him, “welcome to the 715th Signal Squadron. Welcome to Volcano Ogñushka Communications facility. My name is Squadron Leader Jenkins. Private Kowalski, for the duration of your current mission, you are a member of the 715th Signal Squadron. You are under my command. I expect you to follow our rules, and my word is final. Do you understand?” Jack takes a few seconds to process. He then replies with a breathless, but vigorous, “Yes, Ma’am!” “Excellent!

This is the chamber he saw on the wing. It is a tight squeeze: Jack’s body is touching the back of S/L Jenkins. Behind him, Private Montgomery’s body is physically touching him. There is a silent awkwardness as the airlock begins to pressurize. Jack keeps his hands in his pockets. He is trying to avoid touching anybody. He fears being accused of sexual harassment, which would get him thrown out of this sanctuary. Jack is taken to the front of the converted aircraft. Just behind the cockpit, there is a tiny lounge where he slumps on the couch. To Jack’s delight, his headache begins to fade away, and his fingers stop tingling. He takes a deep breath of air.
