Ah, Tully had all the answers in this chapter. I think that Troy was even surprised by that. Good story - lots of twists and turns. Of course I loved Tully's pragmatic thoughts on all this

This had to be Dietrich's hardest decision to support the plot to kill Hitler, although showing the location of the radio towers had to be a close second. At least he got the penicillin (hopefully for a very special person). I hope some poor Allied soldier won't desperately need it too.

I'm astounded that Dietrich agreed to the proposal even if it was in return to medical supplies. He must be really desperate; I'm eager to find out why.

All right Tully - he has a word of wisdom. This sounds like something Moffitt would have suggested. I hope the 2 privates will play important roles in the rest of the story!

I think the review I left for chapter 1 fits chapter 2 a lot better. Obviously I'm confused.

This is the only conflict I've seen between Moffitt and Christina. She isn't really interested in archaeology. If Charley isn't either, the 2 ladies can do their "own thing" while the guys dig and discuss. Moffitt is so considerate of Christina's feeling - he was smart to give up on the dig and pay attention to Christina. What a guy!

Hi 2Lieutenant
I've read this story twice now. I like your dialogue and you've provided helpful as well as imaginative background description. As a reader, I am following your plot line more easily from chapter to chapter than I did in your first offering. I'm not 100% with you in terms of your decision to have Dietrich become a traitor, although previous fanfic writers have also chosen to have him involved in the German Resistance or act as a double agent. I understand your logic, I simply don't see it in the character as portrayed in the tv series. However, it is entirely your prerogative. I do hope your characterization will not lead our dear Hauptmann to find himself with his neck in the business end of a rope, although that in itself could open up new storylines. Rats to the rescue? Keep writing. You have talent.

Interesting premise. Not sure where this is going, but I'm hooked.
