“Hare is taking the equipment readiness and utilization spreadsheet to his quarters on a laptop, along with fuel requisitions and resupply requirements. A similar report which he has access to, shows ships and aircraft in use, so he knew a mini-submersible was refueled off the coast of North Korea, he knew two SEALS boarded a tiltwing with a Ghost drone and HALO jump gear. Analysts can figure out approximately where our SEALS will go based on that info. They’ll notify North Korea’s coastal watch system and be looking for parachutes.” Kyle studied Hallam’s features as he continued. “And perhaps worst of all, Miss Ito will know there have been no orders from CINCPACFLT and that no coordination with South Korean and Japanese forces has taken place. That will indicate to them this is a clandestine operation, and clearly not a training exercise of some sort. CID is monitoring Hare, but they have lost Miss Ito. She will likely deliver her information and leave Yokohama forever. This is that hot.”
Hallam watched three seagulls sunning themselves on the seawall. “I wish I had been told Miss Ito and Miss Hayakawa were returned abductees. I would not have assigned them to my office.”
“The Japanese Self Defense forces screen them, but they let us assign them where we want. I believe they were on staff before you were assigned here. North Koreans have turned Miss Ito, she’s working for them. But there’s no evidence Miss Hayakawa is. In any case, the most damaging part of the leak is Commander Hare. He is providing, probably unintentionally, information on our operations to Miss Ito.”
Hallam nodded. “I’ll have CID move in on Hare.” He paused. “I’ve never understood why North Korea abducts Japanese occasionally, holds them for a few years, then returns them. Been going on for years. Japanese government seems unable to stop it.”
“Most obvious explanation is to train the Japanese as moles to work with North Korean intelligence people once they are returned to Japan.” Kyle frowned at Landmark Tower, Yokohama’s tallest building, white in the midday sun.
“Want to abort the Op?” Kyle asked quietly.
Hallam studied Kyle’s unlined face. “No. We need to sabotage that missile launch. But I will see that word gets to the two SEALS, that there may be North Korean militia looking for them. Let’s get back to base and start working this.” Hallam straightened. “Thanks, David,” Hallam said. “I hate to hear this kind of news, that one of our own people is leaking information.”
“He’s just dumb, not devious,” Kyle said.
“That may be worse. Frankly, Mr. Hare is not one of the brightest bulbs in the box. I should have reassigned him a year ago.”
Kyle nodded.
The two men walked away in different directions. At the street, Admiral Hallam got in his waiting staff car and return to his office.
