Always one to lend an ear to listen or share a quick joke to uplift spirits, Soap, the kind-hearted and resourceful Scottish man, willingly volunteered to stay back with the recruits who had no families to return to during the holiday season. Known for his culinary skills, Soap spent the past three days tirelessly working in the kitchen, concocting a makeshift feast fit for a king out of the limited ingredients available.

Instead of individually summoning everyone, the mischievously humorous Soap opted for his signature shrill whistle, a familiar sound from the field that quickly gathered the recruits around him. In no time, he was skillfully arranging trays with delectable treats, all the while adding a generous splash of bourbon, courtesy of Ghost, to his coffee to maintain the festive cheer that permeated the air.
