We've got a hostile situation over in North Korea involving nuclear activity in an unlicensed missile silo." "Alright Lambert, where's the pickup point", replied Sam. "It'll be in Maryland airspace. Helicopter arrives at 10am, be there, Lambert out." Sam got up and put on a thin white t-shirt, a pair of blue jeans, long tube socks, his sneakers, and a watch and then turned on the TV.

An agent walked out of the helicopter to meet Sam. "You're late", Sam said. "There are better ways to break the ice but, ok. I'm agent Philalopos (Fil-a-lo-pos), I have been assigned to accompany you on this mission.", the agent said. "Great, but you can stay can stay in front of me until we get better acquainted", Sam said. "Sure, no problem."

Sam walked in the helicopter/plane and found his gear just waiting for him. "Now, let's see what we have here." Sam picked up his wetsuit and slid it on. Then got his pants, then his boots, then his gloves, then his holster, then his belt bags. Sam then got his gun, a 5.7 20-round per clip handgun. "Sam, for this mission we'll be sending you in with a different primary weapon. The walls will be too narrow to maneuver around the Sc-20k," Lambert said. Philalopos walked up to Sam holding a suppressed P-90 w/aiming sights. "Roger that." "Ok Sam, t-minus 10 minutes to dropdown." "You ready Sam?", asked Philalopos. "Let's do this", Responded Sam.
