David nodded at them to do what he said.

"I appreciate this more than you know Colonel. If I run into a suspicious situation
such as before you want me to notify you directly?"
"No. Investigate it, do your job here. Suspicions are not good enough. You have to
have proof. If you come to me with suspicions I have to report them up the chain of
command, and that is bad. Some how things will get lost, witnesses will develop
memory losses, you know the drill. Get the proof, then we can talk about specific
events. Just know that I am available to clarify things from the official
prospective, if you know what I mean." Stark was not trying to be evasive, but he had
to let Boulay come to his own conclusions.
"I'd like to start by seeing your injured officers in your hospital facility?"
"Of course, Captain. I will set up appointments for you to meet with some of our
doctors and to be given access to our injured personnel. There is the hospital here,
of course, and a field unit about 200 kilometers from here at a Battalion HQ base. I
will arrange for you to go out there as well.
I will also call my counter part in the Planetary Defence Force to see if he can get
you access to some of the rebel prisioners that he has over there in his care."
