Kellser tried listening to Mickety's questions, but the man was trying to ask too many of them at once, and too quickly. "Whoa, whoa, slow down Private, calm down. The Sulaco's been boarded by a unit from the U.P.P. They're claiming we're in restricted space and violating some intercolonial treaties. Look, you heard that evacuation order, we need to get moving to the EEVs, I'll explain on the way."
Once the three were properly moving along the ladder, Kellser continued, saying "The pods woke a few of us up, and Taggert and I volunteered to run to the armory to secure weapons. We got held up along the way by two tangos who left us to continue their sweep. They thought we were unarmed and harmless. We found an intercomm and tried to fill in the others, but all we got was the sound of gunfire, so obviously they found weapons from somewhere. We were heading back to the pod bay to help, but then the evac order went out. Now we're headin' to secure the EEVs until the rest get there.
"You armed, Private? All we've got is a couple sidearms with one mag each."
