Summary
In the early XX century there had been numerous reports about "homosexual activity" going on in the US navy. To avoid this from happening and spreading a new position was created to choose young attractive men which would lure homosexuals out. It becomes a popular job among homosexual men, because in the eyes of the officials they are doing this for the benefit of the US.
But what if they never closed the job and it kept going even in the years leading to WW2 and was kept secret from the public?The following work, depicts a scenario where the job kept on going, as rumoured. It was chosen beyond the luring sailor's head. Alex happens to be one of them, as he boards the ship. It seems to be a great immunity as he can have sex with men, freely, but it becomes a Devil's Advocate job as he sends his own people just to remain safe. Every relationship becomes a pseudo one-night stand, as he starts developing feelings for his own superior, Miles and the more time passes, the more he sees his job in a different light, accepting his fate, the ship Captain he reports to and the people which worked prior to him as war slowly starts taking over, as people put his betrayal above their own.
