After asking the question about when pilots were going to arrive a wave of young people poured into the breifing room, all announcing themselves with varying degrees of enthusiasm. He made a mental note of some of the callsigns. Sweet Tooth & Doll Face, Screwdriver, Tiger, Umbra and Radiance. Of course there was the mysterious Mech pilot Gene, who still had Marcel's attention, until it was broke by the commander addressing him directly for his name. 

[i]50120, Marcel Vincent Marsters, I hailed from Gran Tannia before my enrollment into the faceless program. I'm Type A so I can't recall any more information to tell you, sir.[/i]

Marcel's voice was toneless and detached, everything about verbal interaction was routine, especially to an officer. His eyes flickered for a moment, when he turned back towards his fellow pilots, he noticed that Umbra and Radiance were of Erustan Ethnicity. This had his interest as although he counldnt recall anything about his time in Grand Tannia, he would study the history of the world extensively in his own time, and once read about Grand Tannia launching a failed invasion of Eurst roughly a decade ago. He wondered how they felt about their home countries, faceless or not.

He then turned back towards the C.O. wanting to stay focused on the mission and nothing else, he decided to inquire.

[i]I assume this mission is going to bring us into some enemy conflict, what sort of enemy types should we expect to engage in this mission. Just so I can start preparing tactics now.[/i]

Marcel's face was cold, blank and serious.
