“I quickly ran through a mental checklist of the etiquette we’d been schooled during operational training: keep the soles of your boots covered; avoid touching food or people with your left hand; accept all offers of hospitality; a handshake and a hand on the heart for greeting; never acknowledge the women; enquire about their health and their families. I couldn’t remember ever going over the minutiae of making small talk with a middle-aged man who has recently married a child.”
