Andrews Air Force Base

Mac rushed into the office looking for anyone who might be able to help her by telling her if any cods were being sent out to the SEAHAWK. Mac spotted a lonely Airman standing behind a desk looking for something.

"Airman can you tell me where I can find out if any Cods are being sent out of the USS SEAHAWK?"

"Actually ma'am there's one leaving in about 15 minutes. Are you to report there ma'am?" The airman looked Mac up and down still dressed in her Class-A uniform.

"Yes Airman."

"I just need to see your orders and I can take you to the COD myself ma'am."

Mac gazed at the Airman.

"Airman, do you see these oak leaves on my uniform?"

"Yes ma'am."

"They mean that you don't need to see any orders for me. They mean that if I say I want a seat on the next COD out to the

SEAHAWK then that means that I get one. Got it?"

"Yes ma'am. If you'll follow me."

The Airman led Mac out toward where the COD was waiting. Mac quickly pulled out her cell phone and called the Navy operator.

"Yes I need to place a call to Captain Williams on the USS Seahawk." Mac waited a moment for her to be connected to Captain Williams. "Captain it's Lt. Col. Mackenzie from JAG. I'm headed out to the SEAHAWK to oversee how the Intel is going for the missing pilots." Mac lied. She didn't see any need on informing the Captain that she was out there to try and see what she could personally find on their whereabouts.

"Alright Col. I see you when you get here." They both hung up and Mac waited for the flight to take off.

USS SEAHAWK

"Hey Ice...whoa...I'm sorry." Burner stopped short when he saw Ice sitting alone in the wardroom.

"No it's okay Burner. What'd you need?"

"Well Capone and Maddog are back from their joint mission on the Patrick Henry and wondered if you were up for a game of poker."

"No you go on."

"Hey what's this?" He asked noticing the white envelope Ice twirled in her hand. "Spoon's letter? You still haven't read it?"

Ice looked up with tears in her eyes.

"It just seems that if I read it, it puts the final nail in the coffin. That Spoon's really gone."

"Hey listen he's not gone, just missing. He'll be back soon. Would you like me to be with you when you read it?"

"No you go play with the guys. I might join you later." Ice got up and walked out of the wardroom.

JAG Headquarters

Falls Church, VA.

"Admiral, there's a Mr. and Mrs. Brunette here to see you." Tiner told the Admiral over the intercom.

"Send them in Tiner." The Admiral got up from his desk and started for the door with a frown on his face. If Mac was headed out to see them, then why were they here in Washington.



"Mr. Brunette, Mrs. Brunette. I'm AJ Chegwidden, Harm's former CO." The Admiral greeted them.

"Admiral we've heard so much about you from Harm. I'm glad we finally got to meet."

"Yes ma'am. Please have a seat."

"Thank you Admiral. If you don't mind us asking we were looking for Col. Mackenzie, but the Petty Officer said that she had left and taken a few personal days."

"Yes she did. She told me that she was on her way out to see you."



"This is the first time we've heard anything about Mac coming out to see us."

The Admiral glanced at the couple and wondered where exactly his chief of staff was headed, but taking one guess he knew where she was and by his calculations she was already half was to the SEAHAWK. The only question was what was she planning to do once she got there.
