was willing to lay down his life for his country.
& and he was.
The only problem, of course, was that his country was in fact the People s
Republic of China, and everything about the facts of his history was a
lie& with the exception of his being here in America for many years.
Those many years ago,Johnny s route into the United States had taken him over
the southern border as what the Americans termed an  OTM illegal alien, OTM
standing for  other than Mexican. This was as opposed to the use of the many
COSCO container ships visiting American ports back in those years that had
delivered other Chinese émigrés directly to American harbors.
If he had been caught while crossing he would have simply been lumped into the
early statistics of the
Immigration and Naturalization Service s (INS) OTM statistics and returned to
Taiwan where his meager paperwork indicated he was from.
But Johnny had not been caught, and it had turned out that getting into the
United States across her southern border had been ridiculously easy& and up
until the actual outbreak of major hostilities in 2005
and 2006, it had remained so.
That was why Johnny still had the  sleeper contacts and the resources to work
with in operation he was about to unfold. Those types of contacts and
resources had already served him well once before in the conflict with
America. It had been Johnny who had infiltrated Vandenberg Air Force Base in
California over a year and a half ago in September of 2007 and shot down a
Titan IV B booster that was carrying a critical new American KH-12 satellite
into orbit.
Due to his good fieldcraft and training, and due to his patience, Johnny had
completely escaped the dragnet put out by American authorities on that
occasion and had returned to his job at a local Lompoc, California, dry
cleaning business. His cover had been that he was on vacation,and he had the
receipts and the testimony of hotel clerks to prove it, had he ever required
an alibi. But the need had never arisen and the U.S. authorities were still
trying to solve who had shot down that Titan rocket now, over 18 months later.
But that was then, and this was now. Johnny had already been in the
Washington, D.C. area for ten days and had met with his team three times. They
had reviewed their part, reviewed each of the assignments and the positioning
over and over. All of them had been to the area around the memorial for a
personal look, and now Johnny was here today for one last look at the terrain
where he and his team would play out their part in the operations three days
from now, on Saturday, May 31st, during the big festivities.

Johnny knew that at least two other teams, maybe more, would be involved and
that those teams were from at least one other nationality. He was relatively
certain that long hidden and very important operatives like him from one or
more of the Islamic nations would be involved, but he was totally
compartmentalized in his own plans and had no contact with the other team or
teams, and had no awareness of what their specific plans would be.
 Probably several different attempts will be made, ensuring that at least one
of them will be completely

successful, he thought as he strolled past the monument and onto the circular
drive that surrounded the
Lincoln Memorial and provided access to it.
Johnny knew that the Americans could not be allowed to savor their victories
of last fall. The festivities on Saturday meant to accomplish just that. For
the Americans, the day was intended to honor those victories, particularly the
one in Alaska. To tell their people that they were back in charge and had the
enemy backpedaling. For Johnny, Saturday would be directed at showing the
Americans that no one was safe, that their victories were meaningless for
their people here at home& that not even their heroes were secure. No not even
here in their very capital.
He contemplated the impact on American morale that a successful mission would
have as he walked down the sidewalk along the intersecting road that led to
where Independence Avenue and Ohio Drive came together just south of the
Memorial. At this point, across Ohio Drive, along the Potomac River, would be
where he and his team would be set up. There was a food vendor there& a friend,
set well away from the immediate security zone of the festivities that would
be occurring in front of the Lincoln
Memorial. The food stand was on the sidewalk there that paralleled the street,
leading to parking areas that served the Memorial and West Potomac Park.
Walking on the other side of the street past that food stand, he checked the
fields of vision and fire one more time. Everything continued to look good and
he was more certain than ever that if events on
Saturday caused the action to flow his way as anticipated, he and his team
would be in the perfect position to successfully fulfill their mission.

Outside of the Oval Office
The White House
Washington, DC.
Sitting just outside of the door to the Oval Office in the White House, Stacey
Urkut marveled at the fact that she was actually here, about to talk
personally to the President of the United States in his office, the
Oval Office.
From the battlefield encounter with Colonel Kensington, she had been flown to
Anchorage on May
2ndand had been allowed a generous two days to get herself oriented to living
back in civilization& and to get cleaned up, for which she had been extremely
grateful. Then, she had spent almost an entire week working with intelligence
officers and members of the command staff for the entire Alaskan theater,
sharing with them what she knew and what she had experienced. It may not have
seemed like a formal debriefing to her, but the military command in Alaska was
very anxious& and very grateful& for the opportunity to in fact debrief her.
On May 11thshe was flown to Seattle, Washington, where an event in her honor
was held and where she met the Governor of the State of Washington and the
Vice President of the United States, John
Bowers. From there, she and the Vice President had made their way across the
United States where
Stacey had the opportunity to speak at several rallies in cities from Los

Angeles to Salt Lake City to
Denver to Dallas to Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia and Baltimore.

For security reasons, the Vice President had traveled with her only so far as
Dallas. Thereafter she was in the company of the Secretary of Defense, George
Crowler, who had been as gracious an escort as the
Vice President had been. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
