Now this particular gift was…well Casela felt a little bad about it. She’d originally considered getting it for Cpt Manhattan because he was a history buff and liked weapons, but he was more into weapons than actual battles. So when she read up on the new security officer Xavier Khauv and that he liked military history and enjoyed battle reenactments. So she returned to this idea. She always preferred to make gift choices based on what she knew from interactions with the person, but Casela had not had the luxury of meeting this particular officer yet. And after checking with the other staff, they had no either. He’d only just arrived on board, but she felt that was a sad excuse for waiting a whole year before acknowledging his birthday.

With that thought in mind, she resigned herself to having to make a choice based solely on what was in his personnel file. So the morning of his birthday Lt Khauv would see a message notification flashing on his computer console. The message contained a brief sincere wish for his birthday and an access code for a new holoprogram: The Greek Battle of Marathon, 490 BC.
