Lt. Henderson was finally awoken by Lt. Cher Yang of 1st Platoon, Alpha Company. He held his head because it was pounding so hard from hitting the hard sand. He got up on his feet and started to walk around. Henderson couldn't remember a thing that happened that day.

"Lt. Cher Yang...," he said, looking at the carnage around him, "what happened here?"

"Mike...Baker Company has lost 95 of it's men today...and 1st Platoon was completely wiped out except for you." Yang said.

The memory of the battle suddenly crashed down like thunder on Lt. Henderson. He remembered seeing Wash Lad Adams suffering from 2 missing legs and Sgt. Erock running to get a medic before he went unconscious.

"Chew, what happened to Adams and Erock?" Henderson asked. He was worried about his two best friends.

"As I said before Mike, your platoon is dead. Our company had to recover the dog tags from the dead. I saw what happened to your friends. Are you sure you wanna know what happened to them?" Henderson slowly nodded his head. Lt. Cher Yang sighed. It had been a long day for him.

"Cpl. Adams was killed with the medic that was carrying him. I saw both of them retreating to an overturned Amphibian but they were too late. A North Korean Mortar hit right where the Amphibian was and the shrapnel from the boat cut them in half. And for your friend Erock. Well, for him it was painless. When he went to go get you a medic, his head just exploded outta nowhere. A sniper was found with the same bullets as the one that blew apart Erock's head open."

Lt. Henderson just sat there with a sad face. Then he suddenly got up and told the others in his company to move inland. The other companies moved throughout India and eventually reached Delhi and India was freed from North Korean control.
The next day Lt. Henderson held a memorial service in Delhi for his two deceased friends. He stayed at their poorly made gravestones for the rest of the next day. At 0800, Lt. Colonel Jishaku met with Henderson to discuss a transfer.

"So Lt., where do you plan on transferring?" Jishaku said.

"To another platoon in my company, sir."

"I think you've had enough time here in Asia, plus the frontlines in the Middle East aren't doing as well against Syria and Iran."

"I will be glad to lend my leadership abilities to General Starkaines and his men, sir."

"Thank you Lt. I will tell Starkaines that you will be transferring to his Elite 13th Marines Division. That is all."

"Thank you, sir."

As Lt. Henderson boarded the plane to US headquarters in Israel-Palestine Territories (Israel and Palestine Treaty), he looked back at the beach and thought he will never forget the sacrifices made that day. But what no one told him was that the war against Syria and Iran was a lot harder than Asia. The US were fighting on two fronts in the Middle East and were struggling to hold Iraq.
