The High before the Low - Part 1

Brooks Camp Colony, Atfero System - August 19th 3304 - Late MorningThe war had been short, or had seemed short in his eyes. He figured it was proof of the commitment of the Legion towards attaining goals. Proof that, if they so wished, the Legion would have the Sovereign Justice Collective spread far and wide. It had not surprised him, in hindsight, as the Legion had a reputation from long before he had joined them. So he had done his part when war was declared. And he had also accomplished his duty when Cmdr Murdoc had ordered "general festivities". In reality, one might had called it a pub crawl, but that would have sounded much less official. He was not getting any younger, he thought, as he now was recovering from the late nights. The War had been easy, as many had participated. The proclaimed celebration had been also easy, until this morning. Now, he felt his age catching up to him : to many days of high intensity flying, with to much to drink, and you had a nasty little mix. But, he couldn't say that he had not enjoyed himself.
So on that day, he got dressed, scrounged up a decent enough looking composure, and hunted for coffee.
