Jody Snider was securing the Heavy Bolter in the transport vehicle when he noticed Tom walking up the ramp.
"So Jody we are going with the spray and pray method I see." Tom was referring to the Heavy Bolter he was securing.
"Unlike you and Carmichael, I can shoot and Gilbert can spot." He said back to the other heavy weapon guardsmen. Tom laughed.
"Sure buddy boy keep telling yourself that and you might just believe it. Replied Tom.
"Ohh, I suppose having a Las-Cannon makes you a better shot? Asked Jody.
"Sure does, with only 9-10 shots per battery, I have to be money on or else no cover fire, besides I have to pick up all the targets you miss."
At that moment Xavier Bane one of the two snipers on the team walked in.
" Are you two ever going to argue about something else, every time we go out it's the same BS with you two, I mean how does Carmichael and Gilbert put up with you two anyway? Asked Bane.
Both Jody and Tom looked wounded like they both had just been shot by a green skin slugga. Then both men laughed. Tom slapped Jody on the back.
"No it will never change, well not till he can learn to shoot, that is." Said Tom to Bane who just shook his head and moved up into the transport.
"Besides Bane who are you to talk, last time we went out how many did you bag, 2-3? Asked Jody, Bane started storing his gear, but looked back.
"Confirmed? 26, and that includes the two I shot who were fixing to frag you while you turning that Orc Buggy into orc coffin." Said Bane as he finished storing his gear. Tom laughed, "See your second rate Jody, and accept it." Tom blurted out.
With that all their communicators went off with a 3 short vibrates, that let them know they were 15 minutes out for departure. Tom stepped out of the transport to light a tobacco stick; he took about 4 drags off of it and put it out. Tom turned to see the other weapon team walking toward the transport and they were accompanied by Gilbert, Carmichael, and Les (Banes spotter). Yea it was almost grind time.
