Commander [First Page - Previous] <<< returned his look and wished him, “God bless you.” The arriving entourage was headed by a poised and dignified woman probably in her late 50s.

I told her that I didn’t but would be grateful if she could translate for me, to which she didn’t object. I asked her to tell her commander that I respected the work she and her staff were doing.
