The patrol is under the cloud, and the only way in is held.
The monsoon has reached the Highlands. Cal Booker is back on Bad Penny after a long time away, with an arm that no longer does everything he asks of it, and the platoon works out of LZ Kettle in the rain. A patrol called Sandbar goes up a drainage to look, and by mid-morning it is in contact at a fork below a wooded spur, its lieutenant wounded, under a lid of cloud sitting in the head of the valley.
The mouth, the Neck, is held from both walls. Headquarters says no ground force is coming until the patrol's position is fixed from the air. Tuck Malloy, Danny Rios and Captain Vale have to find men they cannot see, through a gate that fires on anything that comes up it.
