Jessica began to speak to her Cadets. "Alright listen up Turds." She noted. "You have an opporunity to earn some respect today. Some respect."

Matthews smirked and made a smart-alec remark. "Dose that include a date from you ma'am."

"Matthews, let me tell you something, and pay attention. I wouldn't go on a date with you even if the four goddesses of Betazed, and Captain Lalor were to appear before me and demand that I go on a date with you. I'd call them a bunch of inbred ferengi bitches before I ever lower myself to your level, and immediately get sent down the the four hells for eternity or the brig. Whichever hellhole I get sent to first."

"Ma'am, yes ma'am." He whispered to the pilot next to him. "She likes me."

"Don't count on it."

Jessica spoke. "The next turd who talks cleans the Captain's lavatory in the ready room." They all shut their mouths. "These are your fighters for today, they are Curtis P-40 Warhawks. About five hundred miles north there is a formation of Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighters heading this way. You turds are going to take off and try to shoot them all down. If you succeed, You'll get tomorrow off."

The Cadets looked at each other. "That's simple right? There's more of us than there are of them." One of them stated.

Jess smiled. "Now get to it. If you take one out, you get the rest of the day off. If youi get your asses kicked, you're going to stay in here until you learn how to take down a Zero."

The pilots boarded their fighters and took off on the intercept missions. One by One the planes came back covered with bullet marks indicating they were all dead over the next hour.

Jess spoke. "So what happened? Turds?"

"Ma'am, with all due respect, they're faster and more manuverable, we couldn't get a bead on them." Matthews noted.

"And you won't, not in a P-40 Warhaw, Cadet." Jessica noted. "So who's going to stick around and learn how to take out the Zero's?" Two Cadets threw their helmets down and left the holodeck. Looks like she had more transfers to security. One again the heard was beginning to thin."

"Now Ladies and Gentlemen. I'm going to show you how to take down a Zero with a P-40 Warhawk."
