This time, we actually get to see 'The Colonel' (#736, page 1, panel 4). There may also be an in-joke in this story, as Steed and Mrs. Peel "...arrive at their destination - a lonely RAF post in Norfolk". The explanation for the disappearance of Alpha One is in keeping with the early Avengers insistence on relative plausibility - he's not been transported away he's simply been forced to bail out. It's also worth noting that Mrs. Peel is much more 'hands on' in this story.
