Gazing round, she saw that the camp was almost deserted and the sound of firing was coming from somewhere beyond the trees. For a moment, she imagined a German attack, then she remembered that Gregoire had promised rifle practice later in the day. She looked for Luke and realized that he had gone with the rest. Her first impulse was to head in the direction of the noise and ask to join in, but she remembered her brother’s irritation when she had insisted on going with him for the parachute drop and it occurred to her for the first time that he might find a kid sister an embarrassment when he was with the other men. Gloomily, she sat down again and wondered what to do next. The only people remaining in camp were Jacques, who was stirring his everlasting soup over the fire, and Cyrano who was at his table poring over his code-books – encoding a message for his next transmission, she guessed. As if he sensed her eyes on him, he looked up, then stretched and got up and came over to where she was sitting.
