When does the Colonel flip a quarantine marker, and can he do it with a discard or by being in the city?

Only when he enters a city with a 1-side marker: it flips to the 2 side, with no discard and no action. Just standing there does nothing. Being moved in by the Dispatcher, a flight or an Event such as Airlift counts as entering. Swapping to the Colonel mid-game doesn't add markers, since the two extra are added only at setup, and existing markers stay put. An ordinary action can't flip a marker from 1 to 2.
