Missing and there's blood in the crime scene. The blood may sure be of Joe's as Joe wants everyone to believe that he has been eliminated. So, Frank seemed to have believed that they took care of Joe, as they were coming for a perticular list of CIA field officers who are currently RED (Retired Extremely Dangerous)

It certainly appears so. He doesn't hold the white color coffee mug from the handle. He holds it from the body and drinks. He is wearing a badge, which indicates that he is a personnel of CIA.

Two aging black ops CIA agents Frank Moses (Bruce Willis) and Marvin Boggs (John Malkovich) discover that their names are on a RED (Retired, Extremely Dangerous) hit list because of a secret operation pulled years ago in the Central American country of Guatemala. Enlisting the help of former CIA operative Joe Matheson (Morgan Freeman), ex-KGB agent Ivan Simonov (Brian Cox), and retired MI6 sharpshooter Victoria (Helen Mirren), they try to uncover their assailants and their reason for wanting to kill them with federal pension worker Sarah Ross (Mary-Louise Parker) reluctantly tagging along.

RED is based on a comic book written by Warren Ellis and illustrated by Cully Hamner. It was originally published by Homage Comics (an imprint of DC Comics) as a three-issues series from 2003 to '04. It was later collected into a single trade paperback that includes both "RED" and "Tokyo Storm Warning", another comic penned by Ellis. The comic was adapted for the movie by screenwriting brothers Jon Hoeber and Erich Hoeber. It was followed by a sequel, Red 2 (2013).

He knew that Library of Congress numbers start with letters, whereas many municipal libraries use the Dewey system, which is generally a decimal number followed by the Cutter number, which generally starts with the first letter of the author's name. Frank recognizes the number on the postcard as being in the Harvard-Yenching cataloging system used for cataloging Asian books. Stuck in the book with that call number is the list of people who were on the Guatemala mission, most of whom are now dead.

The term "wet" comes from the Russian expression mokroye delo, meaning "wet job". It is a spy slang euphemism for murder or assassination and refers to the spilling of blood. KGB and CIA agents who function as assassins may be referred to as "wet boys" performing "wet work" as opposed to "dry work" like intelligence gathering. Why Marvin added "like peaches" to the term is most likely an allusion to the fact that it is difficult to eat a ripe peach without getting yourself all wet. What he was definitely alluding to is his contention that the helicopter circling over his house held assassins who were looking to kill him.
