Hamish recalls his nocturnal experiences as a boarder at an all boys' residential school in Kent, as a scholar at Queens' College Cambridge University and as a logging engineer on an offshore drilling rig in the Dampier Straights with Schlumberger before the Clintons' treasonous pardonee John Deutch became a director. He helps Hunter develop politically-correct 'legends' for 'Les Marquises de Cartier' and their lurkers to penetrate the Francophonie war rooms in Gatineau, Quebec, and Washington D.C. The lurkers collect oral, DNA, olfactory and videotaped evidence of a Tomoye-Desmarais' conspiracy to overthrow state and sovereign governments in Canada and America using coordinated acts of sabotage, assassination and event arbitrage fraud. Hunter asks Diehard for a parachute drop of 'Hero Rats' to help AD's working dog teams de-mine various U.S. Air Force bases and future crime scenes. Diehard's 'Dograt' teams monitor the premature surrender of America's military assets by the corrupt or terrified state governors of New York, New Mexico and Pennsylvania and their equivalents around the Anglosphere. The Hunters begin 'arbitraging arbitrageurs' by producing multimedia alerts to amuse their fellow citizens while simultaneously serving as relators in a Qui tam lawsuit where the United States will claim $4.5 trillion damages from the 'Global Guardians', seize all assets in the KPMG-Desmarais 'abusive' tax shelters and hit the UNEP loan sharks with the 'Doctrine of Odious Debts'.

Rats are highly intelligent and social creatures, with an extremely developed sense of smell. They are adapted to the environment and love to perform repetitive search tasks in exchange for a food reward. In Tanzania, the organisation APOPO trains African giant pouched rats to save human lives in sub-Sahara Africa, by detecting landmines and Tuberculosis. They are HeroRATS.

August 2 -September 11, 2001: New York Air National Guard Unit in Saudi Arabia as Part of Operation Southern Watch About 100 members of the 174th Fighter Wing, part of the New York Air National Guard, are deployed to Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, to patrol the no-fly zone over southern Iraq, as part of the ongoing Operation Southern Watch .. The 174th FW is located at Hancock Field Air National Guard Base, five miles north of Syracuse, in Central New York State. It is currently equipped with 17 F-16 fighters. These are kept in a six-bay shelter where they are, reportedly, "ready to fly in any weather, at a moment's notice." .. The 100 members of the unit who go to Saudi Arabia are due to arrive back at Hancock Field at around 3 p.m. on 9/11, but as a consequence of the day's events are diverted to Canada where CIDA/CCC serves as custodian of the Defense Production Sharing Agreement (DPSA) on behalf of the Government of Canada and helps ensure a strong and integrated North American defense industrial base. Accordingly, CCC acts as Canada's international contracting agency to support the procurement needs of the U.S. Department of Defense (U.S. DoD). Under the DPSA, in times of crisis or conflict, CCC has been called upon to support the industrial mobilization of Canadian sources of supply in keeping with Canada's commitment to North American defense and security cooperation with the United States .. All U.S. DoD purchases from Canada above USD$100,000 are to be transacted through the Canadian Commercial Corporation. Find out more about DFARS 225.870. When U.S. DoD purchases from Canada through CCC, it receives a guarantee of contract performance backed by the Government of Canada. This government-backed guarantee can provide additional peace of mind when purchasing from a [bonded and extorted] Canadian supplier with which U.S. DoD may not be familiar. CCC provides U.S. DoD an assurance that the specifications, terms and conditions of the contract will be met. The Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) is the branch of the U.S. DoD that works directly with defence suppliers to help ensure that U.S. DoD, federal, and allied government supplies and services are delivered on time, at projected cost, and meet all performance requirements. CCC serves as the point of contact for U.S. DoD procurement officials and the DCMA office located in Ottawa, Canada.

Raytheon August 25, 2001 - Raytheon and the U.S. Air Force lands a Boeing 727 in a anti-hijacking experiment; September 10, 2001 - Wife of David Kovalcin said her husband woke her up in the middle of the night complaining he couldn't sleep and that he seemed "very distressed" but she didn't know why; 9/11 - Five Raytheon employees are on three of the four hijacked planes. September 6, 2001 Raytheon/U.S. Air Force Holloman AFB, N.M., Raytheon Company and the U.S. Air Force have successfully completed the initial phase of flight testing of a system that provides accurate and reliable landing guidance for both rotary and fixed wing aircraft during low visibility (Category I and II) approaches .. all weather, all mission, all user capability for the U.S. Air Force, Navy, Army and Marine Corps. The flight testing, which took place at Holloman AFB, N.M., employed a Raytheon- developed JPALS demonstration system based on local area differential GPS technology.

After the 6 July meeting, attended by the same crew as the meeting 2 days previous, a Greyhound bus pulled up to the Ramshead in Annapolis at 1712 precisely and a chubby woman driver in grey Bermudas and a pin-stripe shirt, with short rolled up showing a tattoo 'born to boogie' on her ample right bicep jumped out of the bus leaving the door wide open and she drew attention to herself by chain smoking a crank sized cigar while continually trying to un-snuggy herself. Fortunately, it was not a double snuggy or a full blown wedgie or the bus would have departed late, just like UA93 did on 9/11. As the last of the biped and quadruped ADuc team boarded, "Chunky" ground her stogie out in her open palm, put it back in a breast pocket and swung her axe-handle butt back in the driver's seat. As it careened northwards towards BWI, Red brought the meeting to order.

As Chips listened to the General's every word he spied an on board biffy simultaneous to a sneak peek at pastel avocado puma stripes and a churning Fox. Fox thought, maybe if they could sneak into the biffy, they could hammer out a 20 minute zephyr and then complete a full blown enduro after they were dismissed, Fox was thinking maybe, and she was thinking about the oyster transfer procedure [ OTP ] when Arlene Smith climaxed the dop wop song and Fox just about had an unassisted event.

Red began by asking Hamish the first question, "Hamish, have you ever lived alone with men for extended periods where women were not living in a community be it a prison, an all male college such as Wellesley or a chain-gang?"

"Certainly Red, I was a boarder at an all boys residential school in Kent, east of Gatwick and west of Dover, over, as well as a time when I was a scholar at Queens' College, Cambridge University not far from Ely Cathedral", where Chips had once enjoyed a pint and a pub lunch while on cattle business. "Also I have worked offshore and in the bush on drilling rigs on 6 continents" responded Hamish C. Watson, master of the obvious. During the part regarding dilling and bush Fox feigned a choking episode and Chips, ever the gentleman, escorted her to the biffy to give a 'hind lick' maneuver, and it was particularly stimulating as Fox made choking and gagging noises to extend the validity of their kitchen pass from the briefing. While the confinement was too restrictive to allow the transfer of heavenly bodily fluids they enjoyed the 20 minute choking episode and Fox's throat did feel much better as they came out holding a piece of chicken, which Chips always carried around Dyke, the chain-smoking BEAGLE bitch.

".and in college the girls all called me the 'Flying Hawk'" concluded the world's greatest forensic economist. Strangely, Hamish, Fox and Chips were the only 3 awake, however as the bus ran over a set of trolley tracks everyone woke up simultaneously and said 'excellent points' to Hamish. Hamish had, in fact, stayed in the Oil industry until John Ditch, the treasonous Clinton pardonee, became a mis-director of Schlumberger. If there is confusion regarding Ditch, Clinton and treasonous it applies to all 3 of them, in my humble opinion. Hamish is asked to caucus with Marquis and see if they can penetrate the Francophonie war rooms in Gatineau and Washington. Homi immediately raised his hand and volunteered to assist in Gatineau, harking back to a night on the beach with the 32 year old lady with no sand in her Schlitz.

"Marquis and Hamish work as a tandem and do Gatineau Tomoye first, then go to MI in Washington, which is one block from Tomoye, then, time permitting, check out Tomoye's Washington campus. Types of intel sought are oral, DNA, olfactory and videotaped evidence of a Tomoye-Desmarais conspiracy to overthrow state and sovereign governments on both sides of the 48th parallel. And men, while in Gatineau share a room and act like partners, that way you will be better accepted. Homi and Diehard, we've gotten 3000 trained brown pouch rats and one wharf rat that you will be 'airdropping' into air and army national guard bases in Pennsylvania, New York and New Mexico, the detailed brief is in this lunch box emblazoned 'Willard's cheese'. Fish, maintain routine at Wedge One, Dr. Paul Z will be conducting 'short arm' inspections on KMPG tax shelter salesmen and any lonely men you can find near the UN in NYC. We have credentials and cover jobs for you Dr. Z in Los Angeles and Manhattan. That leaves Chips, Amelia and Fox as Dancer is still inside II/Mossad. Amelia back to your day job but stay clippered up with that 'rice krispy bar-phone' that your boss hasn't caught on to. Chips and Fox, we want you to be on a 42' trawler plying the Chesapeake and the Severn river, as well as Baltimore Harbor however no further south thank Mt. Vernon, probe the Coast Guard when other probings don't take all your time.

The entire team is dismissed to reassemble at the Annapolis Westin no later than happy hour, 2 August. We have rooms for each of you and the dogs and rats will be quartered at the U.S. Naval Academy Dairy so they will have ample dairy-air. Dismissed.

"Excuse me Red, you had no mention of my name" asked Dr. Nano al-Umina 'have you no mission for the world's best rocket scientist and on-again-off again Presidential candidate, not to be confused with M. Badnarik.

"Excuse me Nano, no disrespect but I understood that Fish had already briefed you on gaining employment as an elevator repairman in Building 1, 2 and 7 of the WTC. Your cover ID is James E. Gorlick, and your specific briefing items are in the lunchbox labeled Otis/UT/GE and 'Jamie'. See you all on 2 August.

As the bus door opened and the driver built like George Wendt of Cheers frame poured off the bus and into the Ramshead to wash out the "trail dust", Chips and Fox flagged down a Yellow cab and proceed to the Annapolis harbor to board their Hatteras trawler, which was tied up and idling smoothly a 'slot 6' as Chips was having similar thoughts.

Fox you cast in the bowline and sternline and pull up those yellow squishy things that aborb bumps, I will check for the no-go items. As the twins diesels barked to life a confident and oyster laden 'skipper' sent the signal to Fox to throw the mooring line to the pier and he went ahead 1/3 on the port screw and astern 1/3 on the starboard screw and the bow of the vessel rotated clockwise and selected 2/3 on port and ahead 1/3 on starboard the 'Good Ship Lollipop had steerageway so Chips went all head full as the avocado puma stripes were draped on the autopilot as Chips allowed the technology to steer the vessel as he was being half masted by the first mate. Being a man never to go half the way he removed his chambray shirt allowing Fox to be willingly submissive to his 220 pounds of chiseled steel and sex appeal. For security purposes they 'went below' as Chips had noticed a USCG French made Helicopter hovering over head and saw the three sets of 'field glasses' following the undulating Fox as she prepared to have the Captain 'come aboard'.

After a blissful 40 hour cruise that put a 14 tin dent in the oyster supply and nearly exhausted the supply of Rodney Baldinger NDSU extend-o-peters, Chips turned off the auto pilot, went all ahead flank, and imagined what the vibrations of the twin drive diesels where doing to the insatiatable Goddess from Greece who was taking a shower amidships as Skipper Honedripper had Farrugut Field in sight and he was heading directly to she sight of the 'seawall jumping Porsche' made famous in 1971 when two first class mids raced into the academy in a dead heat so they 'split' the in-out lanes of the main gate and continued racing in the yard, right up until they got to the 60 degree left turn at the sea wall. I cannot recall what was left of the Corvette but I do recall seeing the headlights of the submerged 911. As I was harking back some 30 years a buxom bronze goddess 22 years my junior settled into a deck chair as we were about 1000 feet from Slip 6. As she made herself comfortable I got an eyeball on 'peppermist twist' and nearly drove the Hatteras 42' footer the sailboat ahead who possessed right of way.

As we arrived early for the briefing I had the bartender find a bigger glass for a BSM and he returned from the kitchen with a 'ball-jar' that would have to do in a pinch. Fox had a glass of red wine as she wanted to be lucid for the all nighter following the briefing, and subsequent debriefing of the Peppermint Twist.

As Red walked into a conference room we all followed at sat 'anywhere' with Red at the head of the table and Fish at the opposite end.

Diehard reported his experience with the dog-rat dual strike tandems. He was brief and to the point, responding "ughhh" punctuated with a power belch and a modest, but manly, skivvy-ripper. Hamish summarized thusly "my brother said that the dog-rat teams performed better than expected with the exception of the single wharf rat which we all started to consider a LIUNA-FBI asset trying to get inside our system.

Hamish reported 'Operation Triple Prong" which set the Fox in play but was really a triphibious flanking maneuver where we were to arbitrage the arbitrageurs by producing multi-media products to educate and amuse the 95 percent of Americans who just want to have a job and care for their families as opposed to the 5% that eats Cheetos. The third prong was the role of our team members as Relators of a Qui Tam which was offered to US Attorney General on 10-2-08, withdrawn 1-8-08 and will probably be privatized prior to 1 February, 2008.

Fish briefed the group on the continuing pressure to disband Able Danger and Red nodded in disappointed agreement, signaling to us that for all intents and purposes AD was officially a thing of the past which made our under cover operations that much more important.

In a rare episode, Diehard uttered a second "Ughhhhh" which Hamish interpreted as "all 14 RatDog teams are qualified for air-sea-surface delivery to any of the 108 airbases world wide with the facility to recover electronically highjacked Boeings thru the QRS11 and the Boeing Uninterruptible Auto Pilot that Boeing had made public 4 days after a lawsuit was filed against Boeing and ALPA on 2-27-07.

Amelia spoke up and asked Red "General do you think it might be wise to appoint a surrogate to run ADuc in case things get too hot for you to handle as WJC put pressure on the agencies and the Joint Chiefs to stand down America?"

A sober and teary eye 4 star responded, "Amelia, I am effectively compromised and inerted and as of this moment command of ADuc is in Fish, with Chips as vice" which seemed absolutely appropriate as a flash of Peppermint made Chips reach for 2 EOPS and a room key.

"Well in that case General I'd say that's enough sobriety for this day, so let 'er rip potato chip", as he took a long pull on her BSM with Kosher spear and tooth picked olive. Fox was in a mood to pull a non-Kosher spear with two unpicked olives.

"Chips, would you please take my suitcase up to room 409 for me?" purred the prelubing Fox.

"My lovely Fox, we didn't bring suitcases, they are on the Never Dock at Slip 6" replied the professional, courteous and engorging Captain Turpid as the Fox pulled him off, the couch and directly to waiting non-Otis elevator for a safe ride to room 409 and then to a ride of another nature. As Chips twigged on the number 409 he started playing Beach Boys song in his spacious but not timed dead center mind. As the Peppermint hit the coat hook and the chambray shirt and Slingshot Rumpmaster hit the floor, a sudsing Fox said wouldn't it be nice if the room had a big shower?" And as the Beach Boys climbed into the rubber dinghy, there was another boarding taking place, and it was nice, very nice.
