@hairwing: Nice. I was waiting for an obligatory "Forbidden City" line the whole time.
Dave: I had 27 years in the military, and I was a Platoon Sergeant of a Reconnaissance Platoon. We were good, but there where units on the base that made us seem like rank armatures. We called them "Spooks", not to be be confused with the "Ghosts"!
I hope your story was a "Tall Tale, but your article caused me a lot of apprehension! No fish is worth, all what you stated in your article.
No matter how sneaky you think you are, there are others who are invisible, with the new "Stealth" technology being applied to the ground troops! ~Parnelli
Nice story Dave and pretty well written. You've hooked the readers at FAOL, myself included. If I were you and intended on continuing the tale I would use what was submitted here as chapter one, write the rest of the story and then start shopping for an agent or publisher. The main character Ben is quite conflicted, which always makes for a tense read. Just my thoughts. Good job.

Good. Very Good. Most Excellent...! The best short story I have read in a long time.
Reminds me of Connell's "Most Dangerous Game". Well writ Dave.

Got a real kick out of this article. Thompson brings to mind Hunter S.
