I WANNA BE YOUR DRILL INSTRUCTOR
CHAPTER ONE - MCGEE IS GOING UNDERCOVER
The decision on the surface had not been a difficult one it clearly had to be Tim McGee. He was the right age and had the right hair cut for starters. He was the one chosen to go undercover during the graduation ceremony of the new marine officers at the Officer Candidate School in Quantico. Director Jenny Shepherd had been very clear in her briefing to the team,
"We are sure that the reason for the threat is the fact that the son of Senator John Carroll is graduating and there are a lot of people who would be quite happy for the Senator's day of celebration to be ruined with tragic consequences"
DiNozzo frowned and opened his mouth slowly,
"and….Senator John Carroll is….the Senator responsible…….for….."
"Two words DiNozzo" Gibbs said firmly,
"Boss…that's not nice….I only asked a question….there's no need to tell me to fu..OWCH!"
"Guantanamo! Bay!"
Tony winced and rubbed the back of his head, "Ok…got it….Guantanamo Bay"
As McGee and Kate smirked, Gibbs put the record of the Senator's son Officer Candidate Taylor John Carroll onto the plasma screen and continued the briefing,
"TJ Carroll has already been targeted with some written threats, but has not been told of the plans that we've intercepted for his Graduation Parade and Ceremony. We need someone at the Ceremony on his six at all times from the time they arrive at the parade ground. McGee you are the best choice for this job and will be going undercover to graduate alongside Carroll"
Tim beamed, "I get to put on a uniform?"
Gibbs nodded. Kate rolled her eyes. DiNozzo pouted…big style. Jenny Shepherd continued,
"Agent McGee, all you need to do is take part in the Parade and then the formal Ceremony afterwards, make sure that no one gets close to Carroll to make a move. You need to report anything suspicious. You'll be in constant communication with the team in position around the grounds and feeding directly to MTAC if any does go wrong"
"Understood Director" McGee added seriously.
With the briefing over, Kate and Tony headed back to the bullpen to start their preparations whilst Gibbs shouldered McGee towards the elevator heading for the garage.
