Silence and stealth are the Washington's weapons of war. Every emission, whether it be electromagnetic, heat, light, or sound can place them in immediate peril. Detection means death.Deaths noted in Captain Plaunt's log this episode: Mae Breakall, Justin Crumpler,  Sharla Keslar, Shawn Keslar, Christian Mullane, Patrick Mullane, Rory Nuchtchas, Bobby Ruks, Joey Ruks, Kathy Ruks, Kate Vidrine, & Fred Wolfe.
