Why This Must Be Read: This is in two chapters - 'Five times John’s men were proud to have him as CO' and 'Five secrets of John Sheppard's that John doesn't know Evan Lorne has discovered'. It's a well-written exploration of John's character and his actions, with some excellent details and vignettes.
When Mr. Woolsey retires, years after Atlantis is back in Pegasus and years before any of the rest of them will even think of doing so, John is the one to organize the ceremonies, the parties, and the goodbye present. Woolsey is speechless when he opens the recordings – Brahms and Mozart and Bach, al by the greatest symphonies Earth has to offer – and even more so when he opens the box containing hundreds and hundreds of letters – one from each person on Atlantis and several from others John has managed to track down between the two galaxies, thanking him for his service and his leadership.
John gives him a sharp military salute as he takes his final trip through the Stargate.
