The sight of a Rolls-Royce limousine pulling up to the thick stone walls of Feste Göben and being followed by a military truck overfilled with scantily clad young women was enough to pull the attention of the soldiers inside the fort. Carly easily got through checkpoints, where officers who knew her smiled as they let her through, and enlisted men who had only heard of the elite brothel felt blessed to get a view of this hedonistic heaven.

Carly blushed at the term of endearment. Then she turned and walked over to Floch, who was still in the driver's seat of the truck with Connie sitting next to him.
"Well, gentlemen, let's find a place to park."
With that, she returned to her limo, and the two vehicles drove away from the party taking shape. Carly drove to a brick tunnel and stopped so Floch could pull in first. She drove inside after him, and they pulled into the tunnel far enough so they were in the shadows, out of view of anyone walking by.

Connie jumped out of the truck, dug out the bulky radio shoved into a military bag, yanked the bag on as if it was simply part of his equipment, and shouldered his rifle.
