[Raleigh hear the reaction to Chuck approaching before he sees him. Students stop and gasp as he passes. A real Ranger in a real drivesuit. His identification is impossible to miss, he's one of the newest and most successful Rangers to ever leave the academy. And he's still just a kid. Younger than Raleigh when he'd entered the program by an entire year.
Raleigh looks up and can't help but smiling. He's never met the pilot coming towards him but he sure knows who he is. Chuck offers his hand and he takes it immediately and with a smile.]
Guilty as charged. A pleasure to meet you, Chuck, we've heard great things.
[A firm handshake and he breaks for Yancy to do the same who smiles and nods echoing his brother with a pleased to meet you.
It'd be a flat out lie to say they weren't excited about being stationed with Striker. They have an incredible admiration for Herc after their ride in Manila and although it's a shame his co pilot didn't work out it seems to be for the best now. Chuck is proving himself left, right, and center. And if The Beckets are his inspiration, Herc is definitely one of theirs. Raleigh's in any case. So being reassigned together is basically perfect.]
How was the ride in? [Because he would ask if Chuck is just suited up for fun but he knows the look in the kid's eye. He's just come out of the Drift.]
