Metal Gear: Engagement
Chapter 3
Several paratroopers had taken cover in a large abandoned cafe after they landed. Their sabotage mission had turned into a living hell when three strange enemies attacked and quickly killed several paratroopers which caused the airborne troops to scatter when they saw that their weapons had almost no effect. Bullets seemed to bounce off them or have no effect no matter how much lead was poured on them.
Ned, an African American, peeked his head out of cover his eyes quickly looking at his surroundings before he quickly hid back behind the wall he was behind.
"Seems like they've stopped following us for now." Ned whispered to his team as he nodded his head to one of his teammates who threw a smoke grenade out.
The smoke grenade went out and quickly a large smoke screen had covered the front of the cafe. Gun shots then quickly rang through the air. All shots were being fired at the smoke in the enemy thinking the paras were using the smoke as cover. The gunfire had quickly ended when the smoke had cleared.
"Looks like we got quite a few campers hiding in the buildings. We're going to have to use the back door of this building to get out. There's no way to clear them out from with all those machine guns." a soldier said as he held a device which was able to triangulate from where the gunshots had came from.
They heard a howl through the air. The soldiers saw the one of the things that had attacked them in the area; it looked like a mechanical wolf with some kind of weapon on its back. They kept hearing a sobbing sound from it which was rather confusing, who cries in the battlefield that's a soldier or to the paras, a demon.
"This is not good; if that thing finds us and attacks us in here we're screwed." one of the paratroopers said.
"Quick use the back door everybody out now." Ned whispered as one of the soldiers smashed the lock that was on the door.
The squad of nine quickly found they were in an alley way and they quickly ran to the right trying to move as fast as possible, but also trying to be as quiet as they could.
They stopped near the end of the alley as Ned peeked out from behind the walls while he slipped his thermal goggles on. There were four soldiers on the balcony of a three story concrete building. The entire ground floor was in ruins with rubble all underneath the buildings upper floors. It was not that far, only being atleast fifty-metres away.
Ned thought for a few seconds before he thought of a plan to take the building.
"Private Elliot get that recoilless ready, hit the three story building, they're on the second floor, third balcony to the left." Ned ordered as the private quickly got his reusable recoilless out. "We won't be able to keep it quiet after this so be ready to run into that two story building after those enemy gunners blown out. I want covering fire for Elliot, if we lose him we could be in trouble. If you're close enough throw a smoke grenade at the machine gunners."
Everyone nodded their head.
"One the count to three I want a flash grenade thrown as far as possible at those gunners, then we charge."
"One."
Everybody made sure their safeties were off and checked their equipment.
"Two."
A paratrooper quickly got a flash grenade out and pulled the pin.
"Three."
The grenade was thrown and managed to blind the two gunners who were manning machine guns who were now disoriented. The other two soldiers were firing their rifles at the paras who had just charged out.
The team quickly charged out and got as close as they could to the building before Elliot moved up and fired his recoilless rifle.
The recoilless' shell missed hitting the balcony beside the one the machine gunners were standing on.
The gunners had regained their vision and machine gun fire was now pouring on the paratroopers, luckily everyone had found some cover which machine gun fire could not penetrate, however a few soldiers were wounded by the riflemen in the building.
Ned was the closest to the building only being several metres away, hiding behind a buildings support pillars he left cover with a smoke grenade in his hand.
"Throwing smoke, now Elliot get another shot off, and don't miss!" Ned said as he threw smoke grenade. He managed to throw it on the balcony, the grenade released the smokescreen on impact, all the paras could hear the coughs of the enemy troops showing that they were distracted. All the paratroopers were now firing their rifles back, although they didn't know if they were hitting the soldiers or not.
Another shell was fired this time hitting right under the balcony where the gunners were standing. The balcony collapsed, and the gunners fell, smashing into the rubble below them.
Ned looked to see the soldiers, who were riddled with bullet holes, and impaled by the remains of metal scaffolding, the metal was twisted and although it was dull it was still sharp enough to impale a man with ease.
"I'd say that was overkill, we didn't need the recoilless did we?" Elliot stated to Ned as he ran inside. Ned looked at the bodies for a few more seconds, thinking on what those soldiers must of felt before their death.
The squad quickly moved inside the building. They moved up onto the third floor, with one of the soldiers placing remote controlled explosives in suitable locations behind them.
The squad then took positions setting up a heavy machine gun ,that two of the members were carrying, behind the remains of a wall.
"What now sir?" one of the paratroopers asked.
"We'll hold out till Alpha Company's Eagle Platoon bails us out of this mess." Ned replied. "Now I want this building fortified as best we can, when more of Alpha Company comes into the city they can use this building as an observation base, understood?"
Everyone acknowledge, and quickly went to fortifying the building while one of the soldiers activated the distress beacon so they would know where to be found.
Shortly after the communication beacon was set everyone heard faint footsteps coming down the long wide street in front of the building. One of the soldiers quickly got on the 50cal machine gun while several others readied their rifles.
They saw a group of paratroopers running down the road who were running as fast as they could towards them. Several hundred metres behind them was that strange wolf-like enemy which was quickly catching up to the squad.
"Tear that thing to shreds with the fifty! Keep it off of our boys." Ned said as he heard the noise of the 50cal rounds being fired and its spent casings falling onto the cement floor making a small ringing sound.
Ned looked to see most of the bullets seemed to bounce off the strange black armour. Only a few seemed to actually penetrate and do anything.
The shots eventually seemed to have an effect as the mechanical-like wolf started to slow down, a very small trail of blood was behind it. Rifle fire was now being poured on it, all the soldiers in the building firing their rifles trying to cover the fleeing troops. A few even fired rifle grenades although the wolf-like soldier managed to avoid all the rounds.
Soon the thing backed away heading back in the direction it came after several more rounds from the 50cal, the soldiers lowered their rifles in relief that the thing didn't get close or use the weapon mounted on its back.
"Damn that thing can take a beating, if it can resist 50cal rounds being fired constantly at it, who knows how many rifles shots it would take to bring it down if it got up here." one of the soldiers stated as he loaded a new belt into them M2 Browning machine gun.
The fleeing troops then came quickly came up stairs to where Ned and his squad were once they had entered the building and caught their breath.
"Sergeant Ned, we owe you, after that thing killed our sergeant we thought we were screwed. Names Gavin Levin, corporal." the soldier said as he put his hand out to shake Ned's who quickly shook his hand.
"Nice to see a friendly face in this city." Elliot said who was sitting down on a broken mattress.
"Well we better fortify, who knows what will come down that road." Ned pointed out as everyone got back to what they were doing. Gavin got his squad to start getting the building fortified with his squad setting up another M2 machine gun on the second floor of the building.
"How was your sergeant killed?" Ned asked Gavin when the defences were almost complete on his end.
"I just heard a strange sound then a flash of light from that things weapon it carries. It hit the sergeant directly; pieces of him were everywhere, before we all started running. He didn't deserve the death he got." Gavin answered sadly.
"Don't worry we'll make those bastards pay, once we're reinforced." Ned replied.
One soldier rushed into the room. "Sir those strange female soldiers that attacked Alpha companies base, they've been spotted."
Everyone then heard the sounds of footsteps on the roof.
"Shit how did they get up there?" Gavin asked as he readied his rifle.
"They jumped up! They freaking Jumped up there!" a soldier upstairs called out.
"Ready your weapons." Ned said as readied his M4 carbine. "Let's hope Eagle Platoon gets here soon." Ned finished as everyone moved out ready to intercept that attackers.
--------------------------
Gun fire rattled through the air as the Bradley armoured transports that carried Eagle Platoon fired at soldiers in the building with their 25mm chain gun, which was loaded with high explosive rounds. Walls that enemy troops were hiding behind were collapsing, with the soldiers behind it either being killed while others were being flung through the air due to the explosion. The armoured transports were facing through the city avoiding recoilless rifles being fired at them on their way to the distress beacon that came from one of the paratrooper squads.
"Alright people we will soon be reaching the target zone. Be ready to get out when we reach our destination." the driver said to the Screeching Eagle Platoon.
"Shit! That can't be good" the gunner of the armoured transport screamed as he squeezed his finger on the 25mm chain guns trigger.
"What's wrong?" Vespes asked.
"We've got some kind of flying enemy, they're flying drones." the vehicles commander said as he looked through the vehicles scopes.
"We should have not gone into the city with the Bradleys we're too easily flanked and not to mention a single anti-tank mine will stop the entire platoons advance." Darren stated as he heard more explosions behind them.
"Gunner bring the turret around fifty-degrees to the right those drones are trying to get a lock on our weaker side armour." the commander ordered as everyone heard the turret rotate to face where the commander wanted it.
Several shots were fired and several small explosions were heard outside of the vehicle.
"That's a kill." the commander said as he looked around for a new target for the gunner.
One ECM tanks appeared, on the intersection ahead which was partially hidden behind a ruined building, and started to rotate its cannon toward the approaching APCs. Infantry near the tank were fortified behind sandbags and some were hiding in the buildings up ahead, most likely armed with machine guns and sniper rifles
"Shit enemy armour ahead, we've got to stop, no way we can get past. Gunner prepare to fire a TOW missile." The Bradley commander ordered as the vehicle came to a halt. "This is where we stop now get your asses outside our vehicles will provide cover for your platoon."
The door opened the Screeching Eagle squad immediately got out. The air was filled with gunfire, bullets nearly hitting the squad as they took cover behind the vehicle.
Darren looked to see one of the Bradleys take a direct tank hit as soon as its rear compartment door opened and only half the squad getting out. He heard screams as he soon saw two soldiers carrying out a badly injured soldier, whose arm was bleeding freely, near the unexposed side of the now wrecked vehicle
Darren heard the TOW missile fire and heard an explosion with the sound of metal debris hitting the ground.
"Sir we got snipers in the tower ahead, third building to the right." Wiseley said to Vespes as he peeked his head back out from behind the Bradley.
"We need fire support on that tower ahead, third building down the road to the right." Vespes said through his headset, which was only given to the lieutenant before they entered the city.
"Roger, we've got it." the commander of the Bradley acknowledged. A few seconds the turret was firing at the building ahead, the snipers unable to get a clear shot without the risk of getting hit.
"We've cleared the enemies up front, move up!" Sergeant Dave shouted. "I knew this would be a suicide mission." he grumbled as he fired his rifle.
Several T.F.E soldiers fell before they managed to move to new cover when forced to move up. All had been killed by several machine gunners in the area.
A machine gun was firing where Eagle Platoon was, behind the wreckage of the ECM tank.
Darren saw that the machine gunner was reloading in the building ahead of them. "Wiseley put a bullet in that guy; shoot him through the goddamn wall." Darren ordered as Wiseley laid his sights to where the PMC soldier's torso would most likely be then pulled the trigger.
The kill was confirmed when the machine gunner never fired the weapon again.
Bullets kept zipping through the air, the PMC machine gunners had suppressed any chance of the platoon advancing.
The ground shook with the sound of something stepping on the ground. Soon one of the walkers that had attacked early appeared with several Gekko escorts around it.
"This isn't good! With those Gekko escorts it will be hard to kill the big walking tin can without being shot by those 50cal MGs the Gekkos have." Emerson stated as he fired his rifle at a PMC soldier before taking cover again.
"Sir, we need A-10 support now!" Specter cried out as the small walker group approached.
"I'm already on it Specter, the birds should be here soon!" Vespes replied who was behind a pillar several metres ahead.
The sound of a helicopter going down roared through the air as an enemy helicopter that was shot down by several F-15s soaring overhead which were guarding the A-10s on their run. The heli crashed into a nearby empty building several feet behind the PMC defenders.
Missiles came flying out of one of the fortified buildings, all of them missing the A-10s which were closing in due to chaffs, and ECM pods mounted on them. The walker, however, fired several missiles, followed by a hail of shells from the Gatling cannon.
One of the A-10s engines was hit causing it to crash into road ahead of the platoon. A Gekko was crushed by the falling plane and a fiery explosion engulfing the two, with smoke and flames billowing out of what was left.
Several more Gekko fell to an A-10s Gatling fire with missiles being fired at the walker which had just shot down an A-10. All the walkers exploded, as the A-10 soared out of the battlefield.
The building behind the Screeching Eagles was starting collapsed due to parts that have flown toward it from wreckages were now either destroying supporting pillar, or recoilless rifles from PMC troops were causing the buildings structural integrity to fail.
Emerson was the first to notice the building behind them was rapidly falling apart. "Scatter!" he called out. "Scatter the building is coming down!" he shouted again as he quickly ran out of the way.
The building fell in on itself while balconies fell off the building completely. Soon the remains of the buildings was surrounded by rubble.
The team quickly scattered to the nearest source of cover away from the building which was ahead of their current position, several large dumpsters provided the teams cover. Specter, however, looked to see Paul wounded several metres away from his squad and out in the open, his squad mates unable to help with most either wounded or dead. Paul was crawling towards the Eagles with a trail of blood behind him, both his legs had been shot.
"Specter what are you doing get out of there!" Victor yelled out to Specter who was running toward Paul.
"Goddamn Specter, give him cover fire!" Darren ordered as everyone started firing at the machine gunners up the street ahead.
Specter managed to get Paul on his feet and help him limp towards the team. Gunfire was around them, bullets were hitting Specter all around his body, and yet he continued towards the team not caring if he died or not.
Specter finally made it back before he collapsed on the ground while Paul's injuries being treated by a nearby medic.
Specter was being helped up by Victor and Emerson who were rolling him over to see his body was beaten up and his wounds were deep. He would need evac if he was to make it out alive.
Darren looked around to see over fifty percent of the platoon was either wounded or dead, leaving only thirty-five people left against a seemingly endless amount of PMC soldiers.
"Do we have any evac available sir?" Darren asked as he threw a grenade out, which was overthrown past several PMC soldiers behind cover missing them although the shrapnel managed to wound a few.
"We've got Grizzlies coming into pick up the wounded and drop in additional forces from the rest of the company. We got the Armadillo Tank Destroyer on the way to help destroy armour and tackle fortified positions in the area, I just been told this is the first deployment so expect a few problems with them. Echo Company is now deploying to this are, the areas to hot for just one company, to take on." Vespes announced through his headset to all squads. "ETA should be about five minutes and counting. They're landing on the right side of this intersection, there's a plaza nearby. The armour will roll in later on."
Another Bradley exploded several feet behind Dave's squad, the chassis was totalled and the turret flew through the air before crashing back onto the ground.
Darren's rifle jammed in the middle of combat and he cursed as he tried to unjam his rifle. "Damn it why now, I've kept my rifle clean, God must hate me." Darren murmured before he finally managed to get the spent casing out after opening the bolt a ninth time.
Another Gekko appeared with several ECM tanks behind it, several more Gekko jumped out from behind the buildings and infront of the advancing column before turning to face the T.F.E forces.
"I want all Bradleys to fire everything they have at the enemy, go for the Gekko first; they have an easier time in urban combat then tanks. Pop smoke as soon as you fire the TOW missiles; make sure it will cover the entire intersection if things go wrong retreat toward the plaza. Everyone we're regrouping toward the plaza, we'll hold out till back up arrives." Vespes ordered as chain gun fire and TOW missiles headed toward the advancing vehicle column. The Bradleys then popped smoke providing some protection versus the enemy.
The ECM tanks fired back blindly at the remaining armoured vehicles with their 125mm smoothbore guns. The smokescreen had been adjusted to also block infrared vision, so no side knew if they were scoring hits or not.
Wiseley looked to see most of the remaining platoon had been wounded; most of the wounded was either being carried or some being carried on stretchers that were on board certain Bradleys.
He then heard the roar of approaching helicopters. The large gunships were flying overhead and preparing to touch down, the troop compartment already opened.
"Get the wounded on board!" a pilot shouted as the remaining soldiers helped the wounded onboard as the replacements got out.
Specter was rushed onboard. Specter managed to salute his squad when he was placed onboard before the helicopter left.
One Grizzly, the others flew back to base, flew into the combat zone where the Bradleys and the PMC vehicle column were engaging. There were only two Bradleys left, while the PMC had only lost three Gekko due to the ECM tanks frontal armour which was specially designed to stop missiles that got through.
"Eagle Platoon your, not going to like this, but the enemy has almost destroyed all your armour down there." the pilot said through the radio who saw the remaining Bradleys trying to drive toward the plaza desperately trying to damage the tanks with their cannons. "We'll engage, but after that we're out, our ammo is limited due to engagement with enemy AA sites."
"Roger that Hunter-Five, proceed to engage, we can handle it from there on." Vespes replied.
"Roger that, we're moving to attack." the pilot said as his co-pilot fired the remaining unguided rockets from the rocket pods toward the enemy forces.
The rockets struck destroying most of the Gekko and some tanks, as well as toppling the fortified building where the PMC had most of their machine gunners.
"This is Hunter-Five; we're leaving the area, good hunting out there." The pilot said as his helicopter left the combat zone.
The two remaining Bradleys came toward the plaza; their armour was riddled with the impact of high calibre rounds and their TOW missile launcher completely empty.
"Alright everyone we've got to clear, forward command tells us Echo Company is sending something special to help out the paras." Vespes said as he turned to Darren. "Darren you take charge of the squad from here on end. I'm staying back to pass on orders to you guys in the field got it?" Vespes asked as Darren nodded his head.
Darren walked away then called out to the squad to regroup.
"I wonder who will replace Specter." Victor asked Emerson.
"Don't ask me, we'll find out, when we find out." Emerson replied as he took some new clips from an ammo box that was just delivered.
"Alright everyone we're...." Darren looked to see someone else was near the squad. He instantly knew who it was when he saw the persons face.
"Kelvana what are you doing here?" he asked as the young woman approached the squad.
-------------------------------------
A paratrooper fell out of a window lifelessly after just being shot by several dozen rounds from the FROGs that had entered the building.
Ned, who was behind a fallen table, fired several burst from his M4 at a FROG taking her down, the body soon turned to ash from the flames that appear every time a FROG is killed.
Ned saw Elliot and other paratroopers run down the hallway ahead. "Sir, we've got more of them coming down this corridor." Elliot stated as footsteps approached.
"Damn it this isn't good we're running low on ammo." Ned said as he reloaded his rifle before turning his head to Gavin. "Get your squad to regroup downstairs we'll cover."
"So much for keeping the building fortified as a base." Elliot murmered as he checked how many clips he had left.
Gavin quickly ordered his squad to regroup onto the floor below. Ned's remaining squad members fired their rifles at one of the FROGs who had just appeared killing the soldier while forcing the others to take cover.
Elliot looked to see a flash grenade roll towards them. "Flash grenade! Cover your eyes!" he cried as everyone looked away. P-90 rounds zoomed by everyone, one of the TFE soldiers was struck in the head his body fell backwards slumped against the stone wall.
"Pull back to the second floor!" Ned ordered as the soldiers retreated by twos towards the staircase.
Ned threw a frag stopping the FROGs from advancing for a moment as he slammed the door behind them, and ran down the staircase, while another trooper placed a mine.
"How we going to get out of this shit?!" a paratrooper screamed.
Gavin shook the trooper by the shoulder. "Just following fucking orders and we'll get out of this." Gavin took his hands off the troopers shoulder made sure his rifle was ready.
The second floors hallways were cramped compared to the third floor due to structural damage, rubble was everywhere.
Ned looked at the staircase entrance. "Be ready for when they get down here, move the MG to the hall way now." Ned ordered as two troopers immediately moved the MG from the balcony to the end of the hallway.
The staircase doors hinges squeaked then an explosion was heard.
Suddenly one of the paratroopers body crumpled, blood and brains were splattered on the hallway wall.
"Sniper out there, find cover!" Elliot took cover away from any holes, or gaps in the wall.
Elliot then looked to see the FROGs jump through a gap in the wall near his position. Elliot fired his rifle wildly and blindly at the FROGs, from behind a pile of rubble, but his shots missed.
"Die you fucks, die!" a paratrooper beside Elliot shouted as he fired off several rounds from his carbine, before throwing a grenade.
Elliot peeked out to see the FROGs had jumped or rolled out of the way of the grenade.
Bullets came flying through the wall wounding Elliot in the arm. "They're trying to shoot use through the walls!" Elliot announced as managed to fire a few rounds back through the wall.
The paratroopers all then heard static through their headsets, then a voice. "This...is....E-.....platoon.....we.....are........I....repeat...we....are." the voice then faded.
"This isn't good, we won't last long, and ammo is running low. Eagle Platoon better get here soon." Gavin shouldered his rifle before pulling out his pistol to save ammo. "What now sir?" Gavin asked as he fired several rounds at a FROG, the bullets unable to pierce the body armour.
Ned turned to Gavin after he had fired several rounds at a FROG, the FROGs body then collapsed on the ground before burning into ash. "Don't surrender is all I can say, we keep fighting till we win, got it!" Ned responded as he slid in a fresh clip.
The sound of the machine gun then blazed through the air, rounds being fired at the FROGs behind cover, the bullets tearing through the wall like paper. Screams of pain and death could be heard before the machine gun crew ceased fire.
"Ya, we kicked their asses! They won't be bothering us." the machine gunner cheered.
"Don't get cocky! They're going to try and flank ya, so be careful." Gavin stated. "Now anyone got any smoke grenades left, we need to get to the bottom floor and out of here.
Ned managed to looked through a small gap in the wall, he looked to see down the street several A-10s drop cluster bombs on the nearby buildings the sniper was in while a PMC fighter crashed into a former cafe, shot down by F-15s.
A tank approached its cannon ready to bring down the building.
"Sir, I think this is it." Gavin commented as he closed his eyes, and then heard an explosion.
Gavin and Ned looked out to see the tank was a smoking wreck.
"What the hell, I'm sure none of use hit it." Ned said as he looked back to see if any remaining FROGs were approaching.
Several loud shots were fired, the sounds if people being wounded could be heard. The gunshots that were fired was nothing like the paras had heard before. Then footsteps approached.
Ned raised his rifle, and looked to see several soldiers in heavy combat vest, light machine gun that looked like something from a sci-fi movie; their faces were covered in balaclavas, and their eyes hidden by dark orange goggles. On their wrist was an electronic device.
"Who the hell are you?" Ned asked as he got out behind cover.
One of the soldiers took off his balaclava and goggles before replying. "We're fromEcho Company, and we're here to get you out of here."
Gavin looked around to see all the FROGs were dead as he stepped into the charred body of one which soon disappeared into ash. "How did you get in without being detected?" Gavin asked as he called for the paratroopers to pack up and regroup.
The soldier pressed a button on his wrist electronic, and disappeared before he reappeared. "We're stealth soldiers. We've been equipped with the new Optical Camo stealth system. Now let's get a move on before more enemy soldier appear." the soldier said as he gestured for everyone to follow him down stairs. "We'll remain visible unless you want us to go stealth. Just give us the order."
"Right, got it, so any news on Eagle Platoon?" Ned asked as he moved out infront with the stealth soldiers.
"Ya, we do. Eagle is in combat with the enemy, they just got fresh replacements, but the PMC is giving them hell out there." the soldier replied as everyone stopped in a building with the ground shaking beneath them.
Ned looked out to see several large walkers advancing toward the fight.
"This is not good, not good at all. Looks like this will be the first major conflict that has happened in a long time." Ned commented as everyone waited for the walkers to pass hoping they would go unnoticed.
--------------------------------------
Johnson stood beside the Praying Mantis commander as they both looked at the large screen, the feed taken by Scarabs, or commonly referred to as Dwarf Gekko. Armadillo Tank Destroyers were rolling in, aircraft in dog fights, and T.F.E vehicles towing AT guns, and 150mm flak guns.
"Goddamn it I thought they were sending just a platoon, not entire companies. We are spread too thin." the commander said as he saw an F-15 get shot out of the sky. "They sure have plenty of new toys to use."
Johnson looked at a 150mm flak guns firing on screen. "Seems like they are going back in time, do they possibly think flak guns can hit high-altitude aircraft?" the commander told Johnson.
"I wouldn't be so sure, that gun looks like it could decimate ground force like the German eighty-eight did in the Second World War." Johnson replied. "I'm going out there to command my forces in the field. I brought a large force over since to help defend the city." Johnson started heading toward the exit.
"Johnson, you be careful if we lose you we will be hard pressed find another commander of your calibre." the commander said as he turned away from the screen.
A FROG bursted through one of the doors, the FROG was holding her stomach; blood stained her arms and stomach. "They got goddamn stealth soldiers. The ambushed us when we were attacking the paratroopers, my entire squad is dead." the FROG stated as several medics appeared and immediately took the FROG for medical attention.
"Stealth soldiers?" Johnson said out loud. "Guess it's just another thing we have to deal with. I suggest you start deploying more Scarabs; their infrared should be able to seek them out."
"I'm already on it." the commander replied as he picked up the radio and spoke to forward command to activate all Scarabs that they had.
Johnson walked out the door several of his field officers were waiting for orders. "Prepare to deploy, your forces to the front. I want the T.F.E out of this city A.S.A.P." Johnson announced as a soldiers passed him a rifle. "I will pass on new orders as needed." Johnson got into a Humvee and faced the driver.
"To the front. I will see this battle through myself." Johnson said as the Humvee took off toward the fighting followed by Strykers and ECM tanks all ready for war.
---------------------------
Sorry for the delay. If anyone is wondering whay the B&B corps didn't attack Eagle Platoon was that they were chasing the other paratrooper teams. To all you people who think the T.F.E is at to much of an advantage, just wait till next chapter.
