The captain of the 14th brigade of the 3rd division congratulates himself on his heroics in the battle against the Volks. He tells the colonel that he was having a hard time fighting the "despicable allied bugs" until the 1st brigade pushed them out of the jibel and everything was done by the most courageous battalion. The colonel tells the captain that if he is not arrogant enough to show his loyalty to the emperor, he will be taken away from the military for blasphemy. The captain tells him that the enemy has been driven from the base and is retreating in a hurry. He asks the captain if he was sleeping so soundly, and the captain says that he did not feel like waking him up. He says that the emperor does not know how to give up the battle, and that he does not want to go back to his headquarters. He also says that they cannot find Red. They send a search party to look for her, but she has reported that she is already in the Volk camp outside the river. They will also look for Red's military vehicle.
