You heard what she said about the wages of sin, General Wilson said. I mabout to die. Let me make a call, Prentiss said, and started to get up. Eat your breakfast first, Mrs.Wilson said. Let him suffer a little. Oh, God! General Wilson said. Is there no pity in the world for a sufferingman? His wife and his aide-de-camp chuckled.His daughter said, You all make me sick! I beg your pardon? General Wilson said. You re all acting as if it s all very funny. There are elements of humor mingled with the gloom, General Wilson said. Randy said he did it on purpose, Beth said. Randy did what on purpose? her mother asked. Castillo did it on purpose.Castillo got Daddy drunk on purpose, hoping hewould make an ass of himself. General Wilson said, Well, Daddy did in fact make sort of an ass of himself,but Charley Castillo wasn t responsible.Daddy was. Actually, I thought you careening down the drive on my bike was hilarious, his wife said.General Wilson raised his eyebrows at that, then said, It s not the sort ofbehavior general officers should display before a group of young officers, andI m well aware of that.But the sky is not falling, and I am being punished,as your mother points out, for my sins. Randy says he was always doing that, trying to humiliate his betters, Bethsaid. You knew him at the Point, Tom, General Wilson said. Was he?

And then he lied about it! Beth said. Randy told me all about that. What they did was claim their right against self-incrimination, Beth, Prentiss said. That s not the same thing as lying. Randy said he lied, she insisted. I was there.Randy wasn t, Prentiss said.

Randy said that the only reason they weren t thrown out of West Point wasbecause Castillo s father had that medal& that the only reason he was in WestPoint to begin with was because his father had that medal. Sons of Medal of Honor recipients are granted entrance to West Point, General Wilson said. Staying in the Corps of Cadets is not covered. And he said that no one had the courage to expel the son of a black general, Beth went on, no matter what he d done. And what does Randy have to say about Lieutenant Castillo s DistinguishedFlying Cross? General Wilson asked, softly. He said it s impossible to believe that someone could graduate in ninety andbe through flight school and flying an Apache in the Desert War when Castillosays he was unless a lot of strings were pulled. I am in no condition to debate this with you now, Beth, General Wilson said. But just as soon as the Castillos leave, you, Randy, and I are going to haveto talk.While the Castillos are here, I don t think it would be a good ideaif you were around them. You re throwing me out? Beth said somewhat indignantly. I m suggesting that you spend the day, and tonight, with a friend.Patricia,maybe? I ve got a date with Randy tonight.Where am I supposed to get dressed?
