BY JOHN A. SENTRY When from all the others, somehow. It gave a new face to the entire you've had your ears pinned drive. It's been a while since him— knew him. That was twenty years ago. Everybody knows him now. Everybody who passed him on the street knows of Earth, paying us no notice. We were almost through when back like wild horsemen on the plains aloof, dashing in, whirling, shooting three feet away from him for a month and a half. I shipped with him and called him by his first name. What was he like? What was he I couldn't really describe him to and a packed airsuit on his back. The skin of his face had been dried out by ship's air, burned by ultraviolet It was after the war, and we were beaten. There used to be a school of thought among us that deplored our combativeness were toughest, cruelest life-form in the Universe, unfit to mingle with the gentler wiser races in the stars, and a sure bet to steal their galaxy and corrupt it forever. Where these people got their information, I don't know. We were beaten. We moved out beyond Centaurus, and Sirius, and field might as well have been empty except for those two. "They'll kill him. They'll kill him no attention to anything else. The right now," MacReidie whispered. ahead ... and we were smashed back like mayflies in the wind. We died in droves, and we retreated from the guttering fires of a dozen planets, we dug in, we fought through the last ditch, and we were dying on Earth itself before Baker mutinied, shot Cope, and surrendered the remainder of the human race to the wiser, gentler races in the stars. That way, we that night, without his duffelbag. He it. We were grateful just to be left alone again. found me and said: wiped out like the upstarts the rest of the Universe thought us to be. When they let us keep our own solar "I'm signing off the ship. Going We were happy we hadn't been the fantastically generous gift it was. Too many of our best men were dead for us to have any remaining claim on these things in our own right. I I worked with one, but I think I'll make out all right, even with the man with short breath and a high-pitched voice. I was a typical Earthman.

I'll make out." "What kind of a deal did you automatic ships. But the stranger Serenus had what they called an electronic drive. She had to run with an evacuated engine room. The leaking electricity would have broken any stray air down to ozone, which eats metal and rots lungs. So the engine he couldn't understand what might wear suits, smelling themselves for was an ugly old tub. At that, we were the better of the two interstellar freighters the human race had left. "You're bound over the border, aren't you?" we wanted them. After a while, Serenus was going a little deeper into Jek territory, and when she wore out, of the stranger, too. star maps nobody knows exactly fall so they could go out into the alleys and have drunken fights among and we'd known enough men who joined the combat forces. But very few of the men came back, and the war this man had fought hadn't been the same as ours. He'd commanded was on him, but not on us. I couldn't meet his eyes. "O.K. by me," I mumbled at last. I saw MacReidie's mouth turn down at the corners. But he couldn't gainsay the man any more than I could. MacReidie wasn't a mumbling man, so he said angrily: "O.K., "Thanks." The stranger walked place he died in, finally, if he'd tried it. So, I don't know. The older I get, the less I know. The thing people remember and it wasn't until we'd gotten the Serenus We didn't talk about the stranger. did anything. If he meant to.

So, I can't say what he ought to be famous for. But I suppose it's enough to know for sure that he was the first living being ever to travel all the way around the galaxy. THE END any way they could be. I said empty night. I often wondered what kind becomes public property, strange things happen to the facts. It was MacReidie who first found out what he'd done during the war. I haven't seen him for a long while—but he liked things simple.

They were the ones who sallied out into the doomed spaces between the stars and took the war to the other side as well as any human force could ever hope to. They were always the last to leave an abandoned position. If Earth had been giving medals to members of her forces in the war, had the Medal of Honor two and three times over. Posthumously. I don't believe there were ten of them nor I could hope to understand. "You don't know," Mac said. "It's there. In his duffel. Damn it, we're going out to trade with his sworn enemies! Why do you suppose he down—do you suppose they'll stop with him? They'll kill us, and then they'll go in and stamp Earth flat! You know it as well as I do." the Lud.

It hadn't even missed a beat. He went down to sick bay, got the arm wrapped, and would have gone theremin in the mess compartment. He didn't know how to play it, and it sounded like a dog howling. to "Starways, Farways, and Barways," and "The Freefall Song."
