Steve jumped to his feet and saluted. ‘Stefan Popovic, Flight Lieutenant RAF, sir.’
He was facing a man in the uniform of a colonel in the British Army. His first impression was that this was a man better suited to civilian dress than military uniform.

‘No, sir. I’m an American. My grandparents emigrated to Alaska from Macedonia before the last war.”
