    The Hot Zone

    A Terrifying True Story

    by Richard Preston

    COLONEL GERALD (JERRY) JAAX: Chief of the veterinary division at USAMRID. Helped with the Reston virus in the monkey house. Nancy's husband; everyone called Jerry, was also a veterinarian. Member of the Army Veterinary Corps, a tiny corps of "doggy doctors". Was useless in the kitchen. Another point of contention was his tendency to buy things impulsively-a motorcycle, a sailboat. Jerry had bought a sailboat when they were stationed at Fort Riley in Kansas. And then there was that god-awful diesel Cadillac with a red leather interior. He was tall and fine looking, a handsome man with prematurely gray hair. He had sharp brown eyes and a shape nose, like a hawk's.
