Sorry for the problems last time. Here's the real chapter 18!

'Here are your dogtags,' Hawkeye said, handing a chain with two flat oval disks on it to Izzy.
'Thanks,' Izzy said, her stomach doing back flips. This felt like the final item to make her army.
'The Colonel wants to find somewhere for you to sleep. You can't stay in Post op for the rest of the war,' BJ said as she put the chain around her neck.
'Were are you going to put me?' Izzy asked. She knew odds were she'd end up in the Nurse's tent.
'Radar's asking around for spare canvas. You'll have a tent to yourself,' Hawkeye said. Izzy grinned. A tent to herself was better than sharing with other people.
'What are we going to do about the Federal agent guy?' Izzy asked, looking at her new dogtags. They weren't as tarnished as Hawkeye's and BJ's, but felt like they were a part of her life already.
'Maybe we could start a rumour that there are communists in Russia,' Hawkeye said.
'Come on, be serious, I don't feel safe with him watching my every move,' she said. Her hand strayed to her tags and she fidgeted with them. 'One of the nurses found him in the latrines, seeing if I had any secret cables going into North Korea.' Hawkeye snickered.
'Yeah, he'll do that,' he said.
'If you're not going to help, I'll get rid of him myself,' Izzy said, turning around and walking away. She expected Hawkeye and BJ to chase after her and hatch a scheme with her to get rid of Flagg, but they didn't. Izzy was disappointed. She always did it to get her own way and this was the first time it didn't work. Well, she'd just have to get rid of Flagg herself then, like she had said. First things first, she went to find Radar.
'You still haven't told me how you knew my name,' Radar reminded her when he saw her.
'I know,' Izzy promised. 'I need your help to get rid of Flagg.'
'Tell me how you knew my name,' Radar demanded.
'Uh. . .' Izzy was stuck. 'Can I trust you not to tell a soul?' she asked. Radar nodded. 'I'm from the year 2003. It may sound like I'm making this up, but this MASH unit is really part of a TV show. Obviously it's not now, but it was. I don't know how I got here, because it's not possible. But at the moment, I have bigger things to worry about,' Izzy explained.
'You are nuts,' Radar said, turning away. 'This unit is not a TV show.'
'It's true,' Izzy said. 'Believe me or not, it's true. Now can you please help me with Flagg?' Radar looked thoughtful.
'Alright,' he said. 'What do I need to do?'
