Gresham is enjoying some time off by sitting in the barracks reading one of his favorite mystery novels of all time. “The Hounds of the Baskervilles” by Conan Doyle. He glances up from his book and takes a quick look on what’s going on with the other people around the base. A few happily sounding laughs can be heard over in another area of the barracks, while people socialize with each other and see if they have common interests and talk about everyday stuff… you know, trying to get to know each other, get a friend and forming relationships, that sort of thing.
While Gresham hasn’t been a part of the Diamond Dogs for very long. He certainly hasn’t forgotten to try and socialize. Gresham’s troubled history with his time in school has been the main part in how he behaves in front of other people, and so far hasn’t gotten a solid friendship with anyone on the base just yet. In that instant, Gresham put away his book so that he can find it again later, putting a bookmark on the page he just started on about halfway through the book. After being deep in thought for a couple of minutes after watching the others get to know each other better, Gresham thinks about what he can do better and walks out of the barracks hoping to find something more meaningful to do than to read a book all day.
Will he find a true friend... or maybe friends? A true band of brothers that will stand together to fight for what they think is right until the last man falls if it so indeed comes to that in the end? Only time will tell, but the future is still unknown...
