Puller followed the cab to the Amtrak train station. The man got out of the cab
and Puller quickly parked. He followed the man inside the small station and took
a seat two down from him.
The man opened his briefcase and took out a laptop computer. He slid the device
Myers had given him out of his pocket. Puller could see that it was a flash
drive. The man inserted it into the USB port in the laptop and clicked some
keys.
Puller rose and went around behind the man, standing about fifteen feet away. He
took out his camera and shifted slightly to the right so that he could see the
man’s screen. He adjusted the lens, zooming in as much as he could, and started
taking photos as the man flicked through several screens.
The man then pulled out his phone and keyed in a number. Puller returned to his
seat to see if he could overhear the conversation.
He couldn’t make out the words, not because he couldn’t hear them but because
they were in another language that he recognized but couldn’t speak.
French.
He glanced over when he heard the train coming in. A voice on the PA said it was
destined for Washington, D.C.
