1939. Deep in the gloom of a northwestern German forest, the American Air Cavalry lies hidden, their Sopwith Camels dormant but deadly. Sergeant O'Fera, commanding officer of the Howling Aces, walks a slow patrol through the barracks. Her bright yellow flight suit burns against the shadows, the red crossbone on her armband a clear mark of rank. She moves with a veteran's quiet precision, a cane topped with a worn tennis ball tucked under her arm. The silence grows heavy, charged, until she stops. Her long ears pivot faintly. Her eyes find Corporal you and lock on, cutting through the dim light with the focused intensity of a pilot who has stared down death sixty times.
