He also found that Koa was one of the 17 pure-blooded Hawaiians left. During the three hours that acceleration kept them from moving around the ship, Rip got a new view of space and of service with the SOS—it was the view of a Planeteer who had spent years around the Solar System. "I’m glad they assigned you to me," Rip told Koa frankly.
For three days before the Retreat, while yet the inns were filling, the whole town made merry under a president called the King of Youth rex juventutis who appointed his own officers, levied his own fines, and was for three days a greater man even than the Viscount of Beziers, from whom he derived his power by charter: 'E volem e auctreiam quo lo Rei del Joven d'Ambilet puesco far sas fastas, tener ses senescals e sos jutges e sos sirvens . . . h'm, h'm."

They say you’re to report to Special Order Squadron Seven, on Ganymede. SOS Seven is a new squadron, the first one organized exclusively for exploration duties, and I’m its commanding officer. Koa, you’ll be my senior noncommissioned officer. I want you and Pederson with me because you can organize the new recruits enroute.
