[ Sure, he keeps smiles and warmth under wraps around the recruits, their colleagues - but that's a choice, not a different person altogether ( though perhaps it's because Caitlin is privileged to know pretty much close to all of Sergio that she doesn't see the line that divides him as a ranger, the same one people view as a tyrant of an instructor, a military man born and bred, from the one who has her back, who knows just what she needs when she needs it.
