Standards

As I mentioned, I have received word from some of the higher ups. Although the IHS is a very large organization, we have been busy. They knew I was right for the job and they sent me out with my men. Not hearing from them for months [six months, to be exact] was not unexpected. What did surprise me? The fifty men that were suddenly available to join in our observations.

I suppose the IHS isn't so busy after all.

With these men come opportunity. As I mentioned in my last post we have started a rotation of observation. These extra men will help us keep everything in order. I hope that with them on board, my reports can come easier.

There's nothing like the zombie apocalypse to keep you busy.

More observations

Based on the changes happening outside we ourselves need to change. I have added more members to my crew and together we will begin to truly understand what is happening here. In small platoons of three my men will be scouting the area and observing the undead. We hope to lose no men but we understand that could be part of the process. I have received a lot of feed back from those at the IHS-and I agree with all of it. There should be no left or right. We are here to observe and hence forth we will be doing nothing but moving straight forward with that.

Changes

I realize this is the first update in weeks. This journal has fallen to the way side as other things have been happening. If there was doubt of an undead invasion [and there was] it is no longer the case. Too many individuals have died, too many individuals have fallen. The clinic is all but a waste now. We keep a chunk of our people working in the clinic but it has been fruitless. With the sudden attacks in the area...and the poison seemingly a past threat-there's no point.

We are still under watch, however.

I find my enthusiasm waxing and waning. At night, when no one but the watch is moving I hear nothing out in the woods. Nothing but the movement of my own men, and even they are unnoticeable once they leave the cave.

But still-we march forward-always, always observing if nothing else.

After months of not hearing from our six missing individuals we count them as lost. If they rest, may they rest in peace.
