I found out about it by chance.
A memo was misfiled and just happened to find its way to my desk.
Or so I was told.
Not that I believed that for even a second.
And when I find the man who arranged this "coincidence," he just might find himself the beneficiary of his very own twist of fate. One that will leave him far richer.
Because while I have freely given my life in service to this country, this goes too far.
I have to draw the line somewhere, and I choose here.
Yes, this goes too far, even for me.
I will continue to serve, willingly and to the best of my ability, but I cannot allow this.
I don't care what strings I have to pull and what favors I must call in to cancel these orders, but cancelled they will be.
Of that you can be certain.
This will not happen.
If I had to, I'd stand toe to toe with the Queen herself and tell her exactly what I think of this.
Good thing I won't have to.
Good thing certain orders have a funny way of disappearing around here.
Because somehow I doubt even I could get away with telling Her Majesty that the redeployment of Captain John Watson, MD, is absolute and utter bollocks.
