Mackenzie,rusty,and jack were scouting a taliban outpost on the side of a hill. Until they began to take fire from taliban machine guns when they were spotted by taliban guards.

"We have no cover!" Rusty yelled with panic as he fired his m4 and the almost invisible enemies below that were pouring their Pkm's into the side of the hill the bullets hitting the rocks and dirt inches from them

"I'll draw their fire! Cover me!" Jack yelled as made his way to the other side of the hill

Bullets were hitting the ground only inches from his feet.

Jack fired a few rounds towards the enemies and kept moving to the side

"LAY DOWN MORE F*CKIN FIRE!" Jack yelled motioning the Squad to attack the distracted taliban machine gunners

Then he got grazed in the arm causing him to yell and collapse by a rock he did his best to get behind the rock as he fired more shots from his rifle.

He then with all his strength got back up and kept drawing the taliban machine gunner's fire.

He then felt a bullet go straight into his leg

This caused him to yell in pain collapsed his upper half barley covered by a rock

"IM HIT! IM HIT!" Jack screamed in pain and panic and bullets hit the rocks and dirt around him

"JACK!" Rusty screamed seeing his best friend shot

"WERE COMING!!" Mackenzie yelled as he fired shots towards the distracted machine gunners as other taliban troops attempted the make their way up the hill

Bullet,Harper and blizzard came in from the top as more reinforcements arrived

"Taliban coming up the hill!" Bullet yelled as he fired his m249 into some of the visible enemies that took position close by

"Bullet focus fire on them mg's! I'm gonna get jack!" Mackenzie yelled as he rushed towards jack while firing shots towards the advancing taliban soldiers taking some down

"I got the radio!" Said blizzard as he ran and dove to the floor next to rusty

"BRAVO 6 TO GOLIATH WE NEED AIR SUPPORT ON GRID 333221778! ONE RANGER DOWN! WE'LL MARK WITH A FLARE!!" Rusty yelled into his radio in panic as more and more insurgents made their way up the hill with one mg begin to turn its attention to the others and then at Mackenzie

"SOLID COPY ON YOUR MARK" the pilot responded

Rusty dug in his plate carrier until he found his flare gun and popped a air strike mark

"YOU ARE CLEARED HOT!" Rusty yelled into the radio

"HEADS DOWN!" Bullet yelled as he dove to the ground and fired his m249 saw

WHOOSH!* *BRRRRRRRRTTT* *BOOM!*

"F*CK YEAH EAT IT!" Harper yelled as the small outpost below exploded like a firework as the a10 warthogs buzzsaw of a gun fired away.

This also caused the taliban soldiers to drop and become disoriented letting rusty and the others pick them off one by one.

"your good brother! I got you!" Said Mackenzie as he picked up jack and draped him over his shoulders and ran towards the others still being shot at

"Where did they get you?" Mackenzie asked

"T..the l..leg" jack stuttered as his vision began to fade

"Stay with me brother!" Said Mackenzie as the taliban went into full retreat as more and more air support came in.

Mackenzie laid jack down as Harper grabbed some medical equipment and began to treat jack as they prepared to move down to secure a L.Z

"He's lost a lot of blood! We have to get him to a med bay!" Said Harper as jack's began to pass out

"Stay with us mate!" Said rusty as he patted jack's head trying to keep him awake.

"I..I wanna go h..home" jack mumbled in pain as tears began to trickle down his cheek

"It's ok. Your ok." Said rusty softly As he wiped jack's tears away with his paw

They then called in a medi-vac,moved down the hill and secured the site. Soon the chinook arrived and took Jack to a field hospital in a nearby town. It turns out this outpost was connected to Assad's network of Taliban units that have terrorized the region for the past few years. But it had been weakened by Assad's death. But one question remained. Who were the soldiers who worked with Assad. And what exactly did they do?
