Summary
In a bid to increase manpower following the devastating attack on Hellsing headquarters, Walter recruits the mercenary group known as Wild Geese and integrates them into Hellsing's security forces. After talking with the Members of the Wild Geese, Walter, Hellsing's butler, brings a letter to Sir Integra, which she reads; "Enrico Maxwell, Division XIII, The Iscariot Organization".

Plot
After the attack on the Hellsing Manor led by the Valentine Brothers, Sir Integra, Walter, Seras and the survivors of the disaster, attends the funeral of the fallen soldiers of Hellsing. Later on, back at the Hellsing Manor, Sir Integra was informed that out of the 96 Agents the Hellsing Organization employed, only 10 survived.

Integra then changes the topic, and asks Walter for his research on the "Millennium" Group that the younger Valentine talked about. Which, Walter says that even after searching the British Library for relevant documents, the results was nothing to Integra's disappointment. Then, Integra stands up and mentions the Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, which shocked Walter. Integra then asks Walter about the recruitments, to which, Walter says that he has hired the Wild Geese for replacement. Integra asks Walter a bunch of questions about the "Wild Geese" group, but Walter instead assures her, that they can be trusted.

After that, the Wild Geese arrives at the Hellsing Manor and jokes around about the fact that they are fighting "vampires" which they did not believe, then suddenly, Integra appears and says that it's true to the Wild Geese's surprise. After Integra explains the enemy they'll be fighting, the Wild Geese's leader, Pip Bernadotte and the rest of the Wild Geese, says that there's no such thing as "vampires", which, Integra responds by pointing at Seras, who's visibly shy. Pip Bernadotte walks up to Seras, and starts poking fun at her, then Integra says to show them what you got, to which, Seras responds by flicking Pip so hard, that it broke his nose, then Seras flicks two times at her which made Pip fall to the ground.

Then, Alucard appears through the wall, and insults them, saying that they are a bunch of pitiful cowards and that they seem so useless. Walter suddenly appears and apologizes to Integra, informing her that he tried to stop him. After Alucard's insults towards the Wild Geese, Walter brings Integra a letter which she reads; "Division XIII, Iscariot Organization. Enrico Maxwell".
