"Sounds like a fragging private army...." The touch of outrage in my voice draws an amused grin from Argent. That makes me realize I shouldn’t be so surprised that Lone Star has some kind of private army. Every megacorp has its "extended security assets"—or whatever the euphemism du jour is at the moment—whether they openly enter them in Desert Wars or not. So why should Lone Star Security Services Corporation be any fragging different? It’s just another mega.
