Original Concept

From my notes of last August....

I want to write Hammer’s Slammers for infantry. I want to avoid questions like Space: Above and Beyond raised on why fighter jocks were ground pounding. But I don’t want to sound like David Drake, not because I don’t love him, but I want my own voice. Gotta find Galen’s voice, and maybe a new name. While I love Galen, I didn’t think about the Chief in BSG.

Obviously, Galen became Gareth, at least for the moment...
