CT 2303 climbs onto the transport and feels nothing. His drop-group chatters and roughhouses their way through their pre-drop nerves. He stands by silently. His feet propel him forward, obedient to a duty he has never understood. He continues on the trajectory dictated by a war he feels no need to fight. Seconds later the transport is torn apart by enemy flak and CT 2303 feels hope as the surface of Saleucami rushes toward him. He sees a way to break away from his lock step existence. As the transport falls CT2303 reaches for his restraints and cuts himself free.
