A repost about in story mode.
very good work, but you inspired me to write about a very awesome round of my own, where my squad destroyed 2 ammo dumps before any makers. we suffered only 1 casualty.
My Platoon was preparing to mobilize and take back Al Basra region, a few minutes before 1140, our Platoon leader instructed me to lead a squad south into a small village near a river, Intel reported 1-3 possible ammo caches in the area. We mounted up in a Warrior IFV after checking our loadout of a LAW-80 rifleman, At assistant rifleman ,2 medics, and a crewman plus me as a officer. I consulted with other squad leaders, they would clear the village and we where to clear the fields and perimeter. we flanked around east, to a large bridge, my thinking was that the warrior would be seen by there RPGs in the area, I was mistaken.
we enter the large bridge, and take a RPG to the front.
Get Out! GO! I yell as the rocket rattles the transporter. we take another RPG before the gunner pops smoke and reverses of the bridge, it wont be long before the smoke dissipates and half our squad on the bridge are left exposed. so I tell them over the radio,
get on the side of the road, the warrior will pull up, stop and you will hop in. we pull up in front of 3 members and the jump in, watching the horizon for RPGs, by now though, they are probably distracted by our forces to the north. as we move south we clear a house and destroy a ammo dump, we move south behind a building and regroup,
alright, this building is our rally point, everyone got ammo and unhurt? I inquire. the squad affirms that.
from here we move out west to that compound, check for activity, the warrior will provide cover from our south flank I state, we move slowly through a lush green field, then;
Contact! North-west 100 meters!. Some foolish Arab on the road spots us and opens up with a MG, we dive to the deck, our IFV dispatching him, to my right I hear a cry of
I'm hit!. I tell them to get him to cover behind the wall had help him, we will create a perimeter around this house.
A squad mate reports that there is movement to a large building to north, I throw smoke and together we clear the building, no ammo dump, and the insurgents moved away, the squad moves up and holds the building. I notice our forces at the VCP are in trouble, so after setting a rally point on this building, I order the team to move towards the VCP. A pickup truck flys off the road and in to a ditch behind up, It flips over and a Insurgent get out, he gets gunned down, a red car travels fast along the road and collides with the warrior, exploding and restoring the warrior.
Dam, there goes our fire support, quick, Leroy, see if there are survivors I say to the squad. leeroy returns, he says he pulled one man from the wreckage, but needs a Evac. I get on the horn. A few minutes later and landy speeds towards base
. McFlabb, come with me and we will check this house to our north, rest of you, proceed to the VCP, I clear the house and destroy another ammo dump, Maclab and I enter the VCP from the north, we take defencive positions after finding it empty except for a Jihad wagon, I drop a grenade in and it blows up, but so dose the C4 on the seat. I get propelled over the fence and lie there for what seems like hours until a medic comes over, he says
you have a few words, and your hurt you leg, lets get you in to the VCP and Ill patch up up
