Part of Camp Forlorn Hope
The barracks is a makeshift shack where Forlorn Hope's troopers sleep. Private James Sexton, the camp's morale officer, is here with a grim idea for lifting spirits: a contest to collect the ears of dead legionaries. Agreeing starts An Ear to the Ground, and from then on Legion corpses carry an ear you can bring back to him.
Private Stone, who usually stands just outside, is the man behind the missing Hydra in Medical Mystery. The beds are owned, so you cannot sleep here. After Three-Card Bounty, Sergeant Bitter-Root and Corporal Betsy of First Recon move into the barracks.
How to get there
From the command center, cross to the west side of camp and look for the shack south of the jail.

Tips
- Talk to Sexton early; Legion ears only start appearing on bodies after you accept his contest.
- Nelson is full of legionaries, which makes it the quickest place to collect ears.
