PART 2

My name was Sarah Chen.
On paper, I was a civilian consultant visiting a joint training program.
In reality, I worked for the Defense Intelligence Agency’s Internal Affairs Division.
I investigated men who confused medals with immunity.
And that morning, I had one name highlighted in my file.
Senior Chief Marcus “Tank” Rodriguez.
Navy SEAL.
Three tours.
Two Bronze Stars.
Three Purple Hearts.
A recruitment poster with a jawline.
And eighteen months of buried complaints.
Sexual harassment.
Threats.
Illegal intimidation.
A female logistics officer transferred after filing a report that mysteriously disappeared.
A corpsman who resigned after refusing to falsify records.

And a base commander who had “heard rumors,” which meant everybody knew.
Nobody wanted paperwork.
