Between Seasons
"We should talk about your next posting." Jack said sitting at his deck in the SGC. The command of SG-1, Lt. Col. Carter sat in one of the chairs before his desk.
Even before their trip to his cabin Sam had planned a posting or a TDY away from the SGC. Pete wanted to start a family right away and Sam's biological clock had been chiming loudly in her ears. With Pete long gone and her imminent relationship with Jack possible she needed to get out of his chain of command.
"I was thinking Walker Air Force Base*." He said
"Very funny and it closed in 1967." Sam replied.
"They've been begging for you at Groom Lake."
"I think that will be a good fit."
"I wish I could find a position for you at Peterson."
"Don't you think that might be too obvious?" She asked.
"Actually the paperwork is in process but before you're off to Nevada I want you, and you can take Daniel along with you, to go to Wright Patterson."
"That's where they used to store 'unusual objects'."
"Yeah"
"Wasn't everything sent to Area 51 years ago?"
"You'd think. But I have a sneaking suspicion there might be a few odds and ends overlooked."
"Any idea what?"
"Not a clue but I was told the quartermaster was looking for storage space and cleaned out a sub basement room. He found some items he didn't want to touch. What I heard was that someone did touch and they weren't happy. So I need you to inventory and evaluate the stuff. Probably a pile of junk. If anything is worthwhile, nevermind, ship the whole pile to Groom Lake. Have it addressed to Lt. Col. Carter, Director of Research."
Sam smiled. "Yes Sir."
