THE INVADERS ARE ONE ENEMY. POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS THE OTHER. ”We were defenseless. The invaders could take the planet without a shot being fired. Not that the government would try to defend us. Not on your life. They were in a centuries-long state of denial. They were so blinded by political correctness, they called the invaders ‘visitors’ and named the destructive beams ‘cultural displays.’ ”For a Navy guy like me, this was outrageous. The military had been reduced to nothing but a stage for social experiments. Half the personnel couldn't fire a weapon. Only a few of could actually hit anything. Not that they wanted to. “But then the ‘visitors’ did something strange. Parked beside the moon, they ignored all requests for ‘cultural exchange.’ Instead, they demanded a meeting with just four ordinary people. One of these ordinary people was me, Lieutenant Alex Burns. Until then, I'd languished on shore leave without prospects. Now, I was on my way to the ‘friend ship’ itself. But I was also headed for trouble so bad, so violent, and so totally bizarre that I can't describe it, not without ditching the government "protocol." 'So, you better let me explain in my own words.” Prepare yourself for glimpse of a frightening future. PROTOCOL might be described as satire if it wasn't so uncomfortably close to reality.
