"They aren't having technology heat sensors that kind of thing right?"
Salter asked.
"No. Guns, knives, basic survival gear." Sam replied.
"I have an idea." Hannah said.
"It's an open forum." Sam said, it was nearing the end of the week and they had gone through hours of training.
"Ma'am, you ever seen Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves?"
"A chick flick?" Cracknell said. "This isn't the time for movies Lieutenant."
"That film is most enjoyable." Teal'c interrupted. Cracknell didn't want to argue with the Jaffa.
"I've seen it what's your idea?"
"Do you remember when they were trying to hide in Sherwood Forest they had those frames with those leaves that they prop up and then drop over them to hide?"
"That is a most interesting suggestion Lieutenant Jenkins." Teal'c said.
"Could work. You just gave me an idea. I'll be back soon." Sam hurried out.
"Where is she going?" Tiner asked.
"I believe she has gone to consult Daniel Jackson's reference books." Teal'c replied.
"Why?" Cracknell questioned.
"I believe if Major Carter wishes you to know she will tell you."
"Daniel." Sam said as she ran into his lab then remembered he wasn't there. "Damn." She muttered. She sat down at his computer and logged in using Daniel's password.
Daniel had access to a wide range of historical texts, books, journals and other sources through his computer. Sam typed in her search specification and waited for it to spit out a list of the information she needed.
"Sam..." Jack said as he walked into the meeting room.
"She's not here sir." Hannah replied.
"Where did she go?" Jack asked.
"We don't know sir, she said she had an idea and to stay here and rushed out." Tiner replied.
"Teal'c thinks she went to look at Daniel's reference books for some reason." Cracknell added.
"Teal'c?" Jack prompted.
"I am sure Major Carter will explain when she believes you should know O'Neill."
"I'm sure it will be a very lengthy explanation filled with lots of information I really didn't need to know."
"Then don't feel you have to stay sir." Sam said as she walked in carrying stacks of paper. "I'm sure we can manage without you. I'm sure you have paperwork to finish as always."
"Where did you go Major?"
"Research, it took a little longer than I thought seeing as I forgot Daniel wasn't here for a minute and I didn't know exactly where to look for what I needed." She put the papers on the table. They were stapled into six thick booklets. Sam passed them out.
"What do the Ancient Greeks have to do with anything?" Tiner asked.
"We've looked at this from the Air Force Special Forces perspective, we've looked at it from the Jaffa perspective now it's time try a little historical perspective. Each of the booklets is from a different period of Earth history; they're about the battles and survival techniques of that time. Let's try and gain a little perspective and maybe some ideas."
"Historical research great." Cracknell muttered.
"If you don't want to be here Captain don't be I really don't care anymore. If anyone wants to leave leave now and don't come back. I'll inform your CO's you're back in the rotation. I'll tell General Hammond it wasn't working out. Just go now." Sam sat down and rested her head on her arms. No one moved, slightly surprised at the outburst.
"Everyone take your booklet read it make note of anything you think is relevant or could work and be back here at 0900 tomorrow." Jack instructed.
"Yes sir." They all got up and left.
"Sam, honey you need to take a break."
"I have a mission to plan. I can't take a break. Even if I could I'd have to go and check up on the gate."
"Come on let's go for a walk. You need some air."
"Jack, I can't."
"You can come on. We'll go for a walk, relax a little bit and then you can come back and read the history of..." He picked up her booklet. "World War One and Two. I'll even help you. But you need to take a break before you collapse and Janet ties you to a bed." He moved closer. "And I'd prefer it if I was the one to do that." Sam cracked a smile.
"You promise?" She asked.
"What to tie you to a bed? Sure if you want." He shrugged.
"I meant helping. We'll discuss the other thing later."
"Sure I have a minor in it right. I was always pretty good at history, especially military history."
"You're a good guy Jack." Sam said.
"I know. So up and at 'em Major. We're going outside and we're not coming back for quite a while."
"Oh really and what are you planning on doing outside?"
"Inspecting the mountain." Jack replied.
"A very important task. Okay let's go."
