It is necessary to hope. I would not give cent for our lives if at us now something happens with cars.
Or in the remote mechanism... However, for us would send the plane.
You think, it would help? Well... Hour two we would hold on somehow.
I see, dear sir, at you is some prevratnoe representation about its hallows, - the person in a pith helmet has nodded towards
island. - if tomorrow by midnight we will not be cleaned from n it on distance at least kilometres in hundred, to us a cover.
Basic wave? Whether it is too far for it? We simply will burn down.
Highly over steam-ship with a dry rustle have passed two jet planes.
"Sejbry", - the captain has told. - they will patrol over object all time, till the moment... - Here he has casually looked
downwards and, having seen Charlie and Dika standing with razinutymi by mouths, has flushed and has shouted: - And you
that here stick out? A march in hold! It is live, blockheads! Friends did not begin to wait repeated "invitation" and have
quickly whisked in the hatch. At the bottom of an iron well of Dik has stopped.
Dark business, Charlie, - he has murmured. Charlie has felt a pocket in which treasured envelopes lay, and has answered
nothing.
IT In operation "on February, 23rd, 1954. Operation"Ivy", Kvadzhelejn, to admiral Brejvu.
I report that the object "15" is completely evacuated, the system is started up in action according to the instruction, the
object area is patrolled. Reports on presence in a dangerous zone of strangers did not arrive.
Colonel Smajers ".
Well, now hardly who will help this strangers if even the report on them and has arrived, - has murmured Smajers, wiping a
wet forehead.
In the evening on twenty eighth of February in airdrome of an atoll of Kvadzhelejn unusual revival reigned. The airdrome
represented the unique runway which is passing in unpleasantly close neighbourhood with both coast of an atoll - ocean and
lagunnym, and not skilled pilot could miss easily at landing, having overturned the plane in ocean or having broken it about
rocky coast. However, not skilled pilots did not fly on Kvadzhelejne if to believe numerous assurances of the commander of
the Air Forces of the USA that for service of operation "Ivy" the most reliable, checked up crews are allocated.
In described evening these crews silently dug in the cars, for the first time in a life, possibly, without trusting technicians of
airdrome. Persons of pilots have been anxious, and that one of them another it is disturbing looked back at the sun inevitably
slipping to horizon. Except crews, round planes were pushed and disturbed each other ten more one and a half person,
military men and civilians. They by turns awkwardly got into cabins where and without that it was close from devices filling
them, cylinders and wires, every possible cranes and dials, something twisted, unscrewed, considered, wiped and again
screwed up, argued in a low voice and, being answerable and fanning with scarfs, got out outside that, pohodiv round
planes, again to rush in cabins and to twist, wipe, screw up endlessly. The sun has come, projectors have flashed, and fuss
in airdrome has become fussier and strained.
At eleven o'clock admiral Brejv has categorically demanded, that it are pilots, science officers and military observers - had a
rest at least some hours before operation. The airdrome has become empty, but hardly who from them has closed eyes this
night: that was necessary, was too serious and terrible. Nobody knew, how the damned piece expecting the hour on far
concreted coast will behave.
