My
math
books
were
on
my
study
desk
,
tied
into
a
package
with
a
daily
assignment
sheet
tucked
under
the
cord
.
I
gathered
the
impression
that
Colonel
Nielssen
never
left
anything
unplanned
--
but
everybody
knew
that
.
Birdie
was
waiting
on
the
roof
by
the
air
car
.
He
glanced
at
my
books
and
grinned
.
"
Too
bad
.
Well
,
if
we
're
in
the
same
ship
,
I
'll
coach
you
.
What
ship
?
"
"
Tours
.
"
"
Sorry
,
I
'm
for
the
Moskva
.
"
We
got
in
,
I
checked
the
pilot
,
saw
that
it
had
been
pre-set
for
the
field
,
closed
the
door
and
the
car
took
off
.
Birdie
added
,
"
You
could
be
worse
off
.
The
Assassin
took
not
only
his
math
books
but
two
other
subjects
.
"
Birdie
undoubtedly
knew
and
he
had
not
been
showing
off
when
he
offered
to
coach
me
;
he
was
a
professor
type
except
that
his
ribbons
proved
that
he
was
a
soldier
too
.
Instead
of
studying
math
Birdie
taught
it
.
One
period
each
day
he
was
a
faculty
member
,
the
way
little
Shujumi
taught
judo
at
Camp
Currie
.
The
M.
I.
does
n't
waste
anything
;
we
ca
n't
afford
to
.
Birdie
had
a
B.
S.
in
math
on
his
eighteenth
birthday
,
so
naturally
he
was
assigned
extra
duty
as
instructor
--
which
did
n't
keep
him
from
being
chewed
out
at
other
hours
.
Not
that
he
got
chewed
out
much
.
Birdie
had
that
rare
combo
of
brilliant
intellect
,
solid
education
,
common
sense
,
and
guts
,
which
gets
a
cadet
marked
as
a
potential
general
.
We
figured
he
was
a
cinch
to
command
a
brigade
by
the
time
he
was
thirty
,
what
with
the
war
.
But
my
ambitions
did
n't
soar
that
high
.
"
It
would
be
a
dirty
,
rotten
shame
,
"
I
said
,
"
if
the
Assassin
flunked
out
,
"
while
thinking
that
it
would
be
a
dirty
,
rotten
shame
if
I
flunked
out
.
"
He
wo
n't
,
"
Birdie
answered
cheerfully
.
"
They
'll
sweat
him
through
the
rest
if
they
have
to
put
him
in
a
hypno
booth
and
feed
him
through
a
tube
.
Anyhow
,
"
he
added
,
"
Hassan
could
flunk
out
and
get
promoted
for
it
.
