eight in the morning
`` Taking no chances , '' Rick remarked . `` There 's Building Five . '' The personnel office gave them another map , showing installations and buildings on the base itself , and assigned them to bunks nine and ten in Barracks Seven . Rick was told to report at eight in the morning to Dr. Gould in Building Twelve , while Scotty was told to report to Mr. Rhodes in Maintenance Building Twenty-three . They received a leaflet marked : '' _ Read This _ . '' They followed the map for another three miles , leaving the gate buildings out of sight behind a ridge of rock . Their map showed that the main cluster of buildings was three miles from the gate and nine miles from the blockhouse and the firing pads on the dry lake bed .
