Bobby and Shaun carried on until Bobby dropped out to cover Buq Buq and Sidi Barrani. Shaun had selected the stretch between Buq Buq and Sollum. In be...ween this distance was the Halfaya Pass were the Germans had inflicted a terrible price on British tanks, the area littered with their burnt out remains.The road climbed steeply upwards to reach the top of the escarpment. A natural choke point Shaun realised, no wonder the men who fought here had called it Hellfire Pass. The Allies had bypassed. I had the staff here start calling them before I saw the Director. I even have two Marshals calling. You've earned another star, my man. Keep coming up with the good ideas." What else, is there another hot spot not related to this?" There is, but you can't go, I'm going and even taking my wife." You son-of-a-gun, what do you have, a station change in Hawaii?" You are sharp, aren't you? Besides, you need to get home and get to bed. You're wounded and you're injured. Tell your pilot to hurry and. He needn’t be with any other women. Enjoy.”Well, there were no more doubts about it. We all looked at each other. It was an awkward situation. Shall we? No one spoke. Finally Ted said, “The dishes can wait.”This night Dan’s eyes looked even more hungry. We walked into the living room and Ted took a seat in a chair. He looked at Dan and said, “Go ahead, Dan.”Dan looked at Ted with a questioning expression, and Ted just nodded. They both then looked at me. I was smiling. Dan approached me and. Initially spotted the bare feet and legs of a woman, who, after I got a closer look, I confirmed was my wife."Why hello, how has your day been?" she asked, as if it were perfectly natural for her to be there.Before saying anything, I looked closer and realized she had on her black gown and not a whole lot less. When she slid a little closer to me I saw that she had nothing on besides the gown. "What..." I wanted to surprise you for your birthday. Did it work?"Looking around me, I didn't see.
