He hated the Army and hated being told what to do and when to do it.Structure and discipline interfered with his relaxed attitude towards life.He didn't want to wait another year to reapply.At the same time Harry's dream collapsed another untraceable shipment arrived where he worked, at Building Seven of Baghdad International Airport (BIAP).No paperwork, no computer records, just a high ranking officer and a civilian who arrived with the shipment and kept it under verbal command only.The few who figured out that the shipments existed suspected they were cash from the CIA.Harry recruited the hardest soldiers he knew, including Julian a young man who needed therapy more than a gun, and Mamo, a man much too nice to be at war.
