"Lieutenant Colonel Mackenzie report as order sir." Mac stood in Major General Steven Phillipson's office on Friday afternoon.
"It's nice to see you again Colonel, please take seat."
"Thank you sir." Mac sat down in the nearest chair.
"I see congratulations are in order."
"Thank you sir."
"I know this was short notice but I normal speaker has an important trial for the next few weeks."
"I understand sir. Admiral Chegwidden didn't really give me many details apart from the fact you would like me to give a few lectures over the next couple of weeks."
"Here are some more details." He handed her a folder. "Your first lecture will be Wednesday at 1100, so it will give you a few days to gather any information you need. I'm assigning 2nd Lieutenant Harrison to assist you with anything you need. You'll have access to the archives and any other resources you need."
"Thank you sir." Mac yawned. "Sorry sir. Long day."
"That's perfectly okay Colonel. I'll have someone show you to your quarters."

"Mackenzie." Mac said picking up the phone.
"Colonel, we have a Commander Rabb at the gate. He says he's here to see you."
"Can you put him on the phone?"
"Of course ma'am."
"Hey Marine will tell them to let me in."
"What are you doing here Harm?" She yawned.
"I thought I'd come and see you since I haven't seen you in a week."
"I'm fine, but I was trying to sleep. You're kid decided to kick me all night, I'm really tired."
"How about I come back tonight and bring a loaded pizza?"
"You'll be back home by then and driving back here isn't worth it."
"I'm staying at a hotel near the base for the weekend. I'll come back at 1800. Could you tell them to let me in then."
"Okay. Bring some soda as well."
"Sure. I'll see you later."
"Bye." Mac yawned and hung up the phone.

"So how is everyone?" Mac asked between mouthful's of pizza.
"Everyone's fine. We've had a relatively quiet week. Sturgis's trial is going well, looks like he should win."
"That's good. Pass me some more soda." He held out a can to her.
"How have you b." Before he could finish his question there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Mac called.
"Sorry to disturb you ma'am but I had a. Sorry you have company I'll ask you on Monday."
"No come in it's fine. Harm, I'd like you to meet 2nd Lieutenant Tanya Harrison. Tanya, this is Commander Harmon Rabb Jr, my partner at JAG. Tanya's been helping me write my lectures."
"It's nice to meet you sir. I'm sorry to interrupt your evening."
"That's okay Lieutenant and it's nice to meet you too."
"Would you like soda or some pizza Tanya?" Mac offered. "We've got one with everything on the menu or one with just vegetables."
"A soda would be nice but no pizza I've just had dinner ma'am."
"It's the weekend Tanya, call me Mac and this is Harm."
"Yes ma'am." Mac handed her a can of soda.
"She reminds me of Harriet, can't loose the titles."
"Don't mind him, he's just a harmless Navy flyboy." Mac joked. "So what did you want to ask?"
"I had a couple of questions about JAG."
"Well I have to go to the bathroom why don't you ask Harm here and I'll correct any mistakes when I get back."
"Yes ma'am."
"Thank you sir, that was very helpful I should be able to complete my research now." Tanya finished as Mac came back.
"Selling JAG secrets Harm?" Mac teased.
"No, I'm answering questions like you told me to."
"I'd better go. Thanks for your help Commander. Have a nice weekend ma'am and I'll keep that promise sir. Goodnight."
"Goodnight Tanya." Mac waited until she had closed the door before asking. "And what promise would that be?"
"That's between me and the Lieutenant, Colonel."
"You know I could order her to tell me, she's not the Chinese food guy."
"But she won't because you won't ask her."
"Harm, I'm seven months pregnant, I'm tired and my ankles are swollen, I'm not in the mood for games. Could you just leave please?"
"Mac. I came all this way to see you and you're going to kick me out?"
"Get out Harm before I call security and have them throw you out."
"Fine I'll go, only because I don't want to argue."
"Go before I throw this soda can at you."
"Bye Mac." He closed the door before the can rebounded off the back of it.
