He walked...well, limped down the walkway to the metal steps that lead him down to the floor of the bay.  He saw the new recruits and Major MacTaggart walking away.  He shook his head, calling out across the bay.<br/><br/>"Major MacTaggart, you're not supposed to lay into them until<em>after</em>we're off planet."<br/><br/>He followed after, trying to make light of the situation.  He looked at the three recruits and nodded.<br/><br/>"Okay.  Two of you I recognize, but never met.  I'm Lt. Colonel Ryan, Executive Officer of the Angels."<br/><br/>He walked over to each person and gave them a firm handshake, bowing to those from the Combine.<br/><br/>"Welcome to the Dark Angels."
