    Great log. I trust a number of Avalon personnel are going to be in for some 
surprises when the dust settles?

    Oh, and we ARE going to take care of that SOB Taggert, aren't we? Or is he 
going to get away, à la Ernst Stavro Blofeld in the James Bond movies?

Subject: <USS Avalon> Lets finish this job and go home


Dora stared in horror as the Breen ship that held Phillips and the other 
marines exploded! "Avalon, did you get Phillips' team out before she blew?" she 
asked even as she was sure she had the answer. Phillips was her friend. Tears 
formed in her eyes and she forced them to stop. This was not the time or place. 
She looked at the ship that had taken that ship out and focused her mind on it. 
She felt deceit, satisfaction and fear of discovery. She didn't know what that 
all meant but she meant to find out. She knew she'd better keep her eye on 
whomever was over there. There was more trouble brewing. She heard the answer 
from the bridge that confirmed her worst fears. The team hadn't been 
transported before the explosion. She quickly got her mind back on the mission. 
"OK marines, let's finish the clean up so we can go home. Scan for survivors 
and escape pods." She set to work scanning with only half her mind on the job. 
There was going to be a lot of angry
 marines. And yes, she was one of them. She'd have to make sure that they were 
monitored and would receive counseling if needed. More training sessions would 
be needed to allow the men to work off the "steam" before tempers exploded. The 
whole unit would feel guilty where no guilt was simply because we didn't get to 
bring our own back home. Well, time to stop wool-gathering and finish the job. 
She also set her scanners to pick up any biological remains that might still be 
floating in space and continued scanning. It was going to be a long, long day.
