Turncoat? No, absolutely not; mercenary, well maybe! (I understand you have some good single malt).

Ah yes a mercenary eh, a Navy man, could be useful, but only by not allowing him to offer his services by the "Colonial Mob". Hummm. OK pop on over, we will make space for you in the dunge----er, I mean, one of the guest rooms.

Sorry to disappoint you, but whisky is only for the C.O., other ranks drink----------- er well, something else. -----------Tea probably.

Hmmm.... having been a hospital corpsman (medic) for a while and as I am retired from medical, public, and mental health (no wise cracks please) teaching I would hope my services would not be required. I do also like good tea but .... ' may have to reconsider; after all, a mercenary of my rank must have his due. Maybe I'll just have to stand-by as a "conscientious objector" -- well an objector at any rate! BTW that founder of my profession that was executed was Socrates (executed for impiety) -- just so no-one mistakenly takes me for someone with piety. BTW, I wasn't born in the colonies; don;'t even live in one of those now. No loyalties to that Mob indeed!
