Prologue
As he looked out the small porthole next to every seat Ulrich Stern was reminicing of childhood friends and happy past memories. He was not like many children then, he had much more on his schedule than just classes and dates, oh how he wished that was all he had but no, Ulrich and his freinds were burdened with the task of saving the earth from a virus named X.A.N.A. everytime it reared it's digital head. He remembered how he had met a girl named Yumi whom he secretly crushed on, he also remembered the day she said "no" and "lets just be freinds" two dreaded phrases that stayed with him even this very moment. He remembered the day they shut down the virus which was right after Yumi rejected him. But he sat there in the belly of a plane, listening to the constant drone of the engine made him sleepy and as he evauluated his memories some happy some sad he whispered 5 words: "You're in the army now."

The U.K. provided it's emmense naval power to the war effort. But as any wise general would know, wars are not won by tactics, they are won by men. This is the story of those men.
