Colonel Kurtz

One of my first assignments was a tough one: Like Martin Sheen in "Apocalypse Now", go upriver and retrieve a Colonel-Kurtz-like ex-warrior gone native. One of my camp managers lives on the very edge of civilization, in a forgotten neighborhood in Katrina's wake, infested with gnats and still thick with storm debris. He sees himself as the savior of the community, flying solo and living with a survivalist mentality. The problem is that as long as he's representing our team, he's gotta play by our rules. Since he can't play well with others, I'm afraid I had to look him in his war-glazed eyes and pull the trigger.
