Instead of resigning - which her roommate talked her out of - she finds herself in the hero-position: On the mission her commander shot down two enemy fighters but she gets the credit for this. Cassie herself is involved with a private who is the rival of Ripper, the LSO. A team of reporters is already on their way to interview Angela, but during the night Angela is killed.
