Ok, while my brain's busy doing a reboot for a week or so, I'm posting this little story.  It was written originally for the Transformation Story Archive, and I received some interesting comments about it being a little more... ummm... unusual in its structure.  The idea of using a were for reconnaissance isn't new, I seem to recall something similar from Poul Anderson.  But I set mine in an alternate Bosnian Crisis...

As usual, YMMV on these types of stories.
