Emotion, Sleep, heightens instinct and means that his Very thoughts can be shared across his unit.

He discovers that all is not as it seemed when he becomes aware that his operations were recorded from a first person perspective... His perspective and used in the creation of a Reality based TV program.More over indications are that his Premonitions may not have been instinct but rather the product of "The Red" An Identified Entity that has been manipulating him via his Implants.

As he continues to learn about "The Red" And it's Global implications that are set to rock the US to it's very Core when the Largest Domestic terror attack in history Leads James and his Squad to conduct an operation that violates US Law in Operation First Light in the pursuit of Justice.

The threat of follow up attacks continues and may lead his squad to rig up once more in the hopes of preventing an Attack on a foreign power with the same weapons that rocked the US.

Nagata did a lot of tech research and it shows although there are gaps in her military research. Her character of Shelly is not exactly the Army type and she uses the old troupe of " It was the Army or Prison." But that went out with the Draft and the "Crime" He committed was if anything the kind of act that a Activist lawyer like the character's Uncle could get dismissed after headlining MSNBC due to the political hot potato.
A heavy anti "Military industrial Complex" theme is laced in the story line but there is some humanity mixed in.
