[@thewizardguy] short answer: yes. long answer: Well, SOLDIER HQ doesn't know about Martin's mission at HQ. He didn't complete his paperwork, they might note a single truck and battalion missing. Or Rhyss might have contacted Matt, somehow I doubt it. I don't think Purge would have Martin's contact info, but they might figure out which truck he took. Or they could just call the airport, people who work there should have a good view of the situation from the flight tower. They could redirect you to Martin no problem I think. On an unrelated note: how strong are fresh fledglings? Is a volley from a modern battalion of soldiers enough to take them out of commission?
