[Sometimes, Gene kind of wonders if it would be better to ditch his combat uniform, go back to wearing civilian clothes, wander around in public without his KA-BAR and his father's .45 on his hip, pack up the Unit 3 he'd asked the Admiral for and everything else into his closet and just move on. Start acting like the person he was before he got it in his head to enlist no matter who told him not to, who warned him what that would really mean.
But then he spots the guy who looks a lot like Stiles - Gene doesn't know him personally or anything, but he knows Isaac and Scott, considers them friends, and the ship's small enough that you start recognizing faces pretty quickly - covered in blood and staring up at the stars over and around the deck the same way he had when he'd first got here, and Sledge isn't sorry he's still got the corpsman's kit on him.
(There're probably plenty of reasons why he shouldn't be sorry he's got the knife or the pistol, either.)
Sledge walks towards him quickly, already reaching into one of the pouches of his Unit 3 for a bandage.]
