Beggarman
by Steve Matthew Benner
A soldier is trapped deep in enemy territory and assumes the disguise of a beggar in order to make it back to his own lines.A soldier in an invasion force trying to conqueror a planet has his entire company wiped out and is stranded deep in enemy territory. Without knowledge of the language or customs and different in appearance from the locals, he disguises himself as a beggar in order to work his way back to his own lines without being captured and probably killed. He blends into the enemy society and sees the enemy from a different perspective.
