...blare from a transistorized pickup that he carries almost everywhere, and the Fourth Commando standard bears the red and green of the Legion. At inspections, Steiner often gets his troops' attention by firing off a few rounds from his Browning, then lectures them, his walking stick under one arm. "You are not Legionnaires," he will rant after a particularly bad showing. "You are not men."

...apartment somewhere with Stinger, but nobody knows where it is. It's safer that way. He wants to leave the business, though, and open a small jewelry store somewhere in Boston, because he hates the violence a dealer might possibly meet. Most of the hippies who sell drugs arm themselves with guns or knives, Avery said, although street fights are rare.
