"Tell us about the markings on your uniform," demanded Nanna, abruptly.
"What? No."
"Tell us," insisted Nanna. "Or I will - I will shoot your Major." He drew out a zat, and aimed it at Carter, who stepped back. "Tell us, Colonel. We know how much you value her life." He and Enki exchanged a significant look that raised some new concerns in Jack's mind.
