  “Ferris, sir,” Supervisory Special Agent Mulligan said. “Colonel James D. Ferris.”

  “Right. What am I supposed to say to them?”

  “Sir, may I make a suggestion?” Mulligan asked.

  “Why not?” the President said.

  “Don’t say anything at all,” Mulligan said. “Just be standing there waiting when General Naylor’s plane lands. General Naylor will get off first and salute you, and then Colonel Ferris, and he will salute, and you say, ‘Welcome home, Colonel. We’re glad you’re back.’ And that’s all.”

  Joshua Ezekiel Clendennen considered that a long moment. “I’ll be goddamned if I don’t think he’s right. I don’t have to say anything. The people will see me there, seeing me welcome Harris-”

  “Ferris, sir,” Mulligan corrected him.

  “-welcome Ferris home. As Commander in Chief. Nobody would pay attention to anything I had to say anyway. What’ll stick in their minds is Colonel Ferris saluting the Commander in Chief. Set that up, Beiderman.”

  “Yes, Mr. President.”
