A hidden journal can be found in one of the three computer terminals.

The spiders are watching the mercs from above the ceiling.

THE SET-UP

The officers' quarters have also been ravaged, but not by spiders. There are many signs of search and struggle, but no bodies. There are three cubicles, each with a desk and a cot.
