...expected. They appear to be two different aspects of the same entity-the nucleon. " The composition of the particles, he pointed out, is nearly alike except for the electrical charge. Each is composed of an outer cloud of moving mesons, a denser inner cloud, and an extremely dense, pointlike core. Both cores are no larger than .00000000000002 cm. Both the clouds and core of the proton are positively charged, while the charge in a neutron is electrically balanced by its inner cloud (negative) and its outer cloud and core (positive).

He clearly identifies with Sergeant Divino--an extremely sympathetic hero: "It was all he (Divino) wanted now or ever from the Cherrys, the knowledge he was limned in spades to know they knew that civilian crazy core of him their souls. Needing no confrontation, no mundane strength... he needed periodic (and mutual) of their polarity: that on a bloody peninsula blasting with no names he could love for, or in a basic-training crapping on people he had and created for eight weeks, was Divino, Cherry was being...
