Line 33: After a brief goodbye to his sister [[Dana Tinker|Dana]] he moves out on the [[DropShip]] ''[[St. Michael (Individual DropShip)|St. Michael]]'' under sealed orders. It turns out he was promoted to Deputy Division Commander under Precentor Marx's [[33rd Division (Word of Blake)|33rd Division]] and ordered to [[Robinson]]. En route, he gets to know some young recruits sent to Robinson as replacements for the 33rd. They regard him as a hero, and Raul, who had not bothered following the news reports on his exploits on Muskegon, finds that the official reports diverge from his own experiences. He is also worried to see they are mindless fanatics blindly following orders to the letter and unable to think on their own in combat, and tries to teach them some combat experience on simulators during the trip.
