Kurt had awoke with what could be considered something along the lines of the shudder, though his head was surprisingly clear as it had ever been. It came as a shock to the man when he observed his surroundings, and the fellows that were sat in chairs similar to his own. Despite some slight disorientation that swiftly passed without developing further, Kurt took in every single word that the new...officer? Had said to both him and the others in the chairs with all the strict, unmoving discipline that his former mercenaries had demanded. had to be said that his expression was rather, blank however, despite the concentration. 

Kurt lowered his gaze when presented with the idea of fighting the Brotherhood of Steel, it was a strange change of pace considering that he and the Brotherhood had until somewhat recently been on quite respectable working terms with one another, though the latter had always held contempt...that business had truly passed, Kurt had no intention of going back to it either. 

He simply assumed that the officer and the others in chairs around him were all friendlies, or at least neutral to the point where a shootout was not the foreseeable future, hell they'd even the decency to leave his gasmask on. To be safe however, Kurt had worked out a survivable path to his weapons and the nearest defensible piece of cover in the room - probably another person.

It was a moment of hidden joy when he discovered his weapons, entrenching tool included, to be in the very same room as himself, he regarded them as more important than himself as it were anyway. Standing from his chair in a mechanical and entirely, faultless, manner, Kurt barely suppressed the urge to salute the officer before walking the short distance to the table that held his weapons. He noted that one of the more, unstable looking men, had...reassembled his weapon. Kurt brushed it off, slinging his rifle over his shoulder and folding the entrenching tool before placing it on his belt.

Turning to the officer, he awaited further instruction as to what to do next.
