Admiral Cousins is awakened in his large well-furnished cabin one level below the flight deck. While he is dressing and drinking a cup of tea, a watch officer brings him the messages that have arrived. He looks up from his papers again, a soft-spoken, clear-eyed man of 52, his black hair beginning to silver, and lets his eyes rove the deck. [...] Admiral Cousins settles in his white-upholstered revolving chair embroidered with two stars. He first opens the manila folder containing the top secret messages printed on red paper. At sea he does 10-minutes of calisthenics in the morning and reads for pleasure in spare moments. Current issues of The New Yorker, The New Republic, The Atlantic, Fortnum and the news magazines are piled on his coffee table, along with yellow-backed mysteries by Georges Simenon in French.«
