It's been a while since I read the WCIII novel. I'll have to look thorugh it again, I don't recall that, but my early onset Alzheimer's likely is kicking in.
As for Angel being on the mission, I almost wonder if it was similar to the US preperations for the atomic bomb. At the time Col. Tibbets was responsible for assembling the personnel to deliver the bomb. He did a whole lot more than you would think a Colonel would have been responsible for. He was in charge of finding a traing location, setting up, moving to Tinian and setting up there, and all the while keeping his people in the dark about what was going on. That kind of secrecy did help lead to the end of his first marriage. On the Hirsohama mission he and the crew were give cyanide capsules that they were take should they feel they were going to fall into enemy hands.
I do wonder if Angel was there also because Angel was going to be the one to fly the mission, if she made it back?
