your attack upon the supply columns. Well done my friends your bravery and competence is becoming known all around the country.
    He said of great importance is the fact that the UN civilian administrator, Ohio guard commander, and the base commander and all their wives and several others were slain in a bold daylight attack yesterday at the Wright Patt air force logistic center. The attacker apparently operated alone and managed to elude his pursuers and escaped after killing a guard and taking his vehicle. Guards reported an elderly man was seen running from the area. Also last night the state Commander of all United Nations advisors and his wife were attacked and slain in their residence near Columbus at the old air reserve base. It is reported a sentry was killed then the attacker entered the commanders home disposing of the commander and his wife. Military spokespersons say the lone attacker was wounded trying to escape. Based upon the amount of blood found it is believed his wounds were severe enough to cause his death, however his body has not been found.
    Mac looked at Goldie and James and Joshua also looked for some word from their dad but nothing was forthcoming. Richard looked at Goldie and said, old friend, was your journey successful? Goldie said yes, there were some minor problems but overall my trip was a success. Richard said I see you have a bandage over your ribs, nothing serious I hope. Not at all Goldie replied. Richard looked at him for a moment then grinned and said, I doubt they will ever find the one who attacked and eliminated the top brass at Wright pat and Columbus will they. Goldie said I doubt they will. Then he asked what is their response expected to be to their loss of personnel in our sector? Richard replied we don’t have a clear indication yet, we do know the platoon sized patrol they had out when you assaulted their encampment at snow hill was moved to Wright Patterson. For the time being you men lay low and watch for movement and rest, you have all earned it. He said I must return to my command post but I will contact you with any new developments. He looked at Goldie for a moment and said, well-done friend, then he and his companions started their journey home.
    The men all sat and talked about old times and their hopes for tomorrow. Then Goldie said Tim right now it appears all their personnel have been moved from this sector to Wright Patterson. It is safe for those who have families in this area to spend some time with them. Tell your men they can all go home and help their families. We will get word to them if they are needed for an operation. Tim you may as well go and see that all is well with your family, I will be in touch if things change. After Tim and his men had departed Goldie said James you and Joshua take your people back to Adams and highland county. Spend some time with my grandchildren and let the men go home and rest I will contact you if there is any new developments. James asked dad what will you and Mac and his people do while we are gone. Well son right now it looks like the National Guard have moved their people out of our sector. It may well be others are making it tough for them in their areas, if so we could be in a position to make some real progress. Mac and I will stay in contact with Richard and with you. He gave his sons a bear hug and said, now be gone with you.
    Mac said Goldie where do we go from here? Goldie said with things as they are now we may be able to move about for some special operations. We need to keep them awake, fearful, and disrupt their thinking wouldn’t you agree. Mac said reckon I do top, I will take the first watch tonight, will you set up the relief? Ok I will set up the relief and spell you in two hours. Later sitting there at the edge of the woods was restful to him. He watched as three female deer came walking along then stopped at the stream for water. He sat quietly and watched then heard movement and saw a large antlered deer
