So Munster and I met Jedi Andrew at the Lowell field on Sunday the 12th.
We were invited to be the "hand picked" Special Forces group for his operation.
ACU was the camo requirement and I did ask everyone who had ACU to attend. However, with such short notice not many Crew were able to attend.
Now time for the story:
We arrive at the field a little early so we can meet our teammates and be briefed accordingly. After arriving I didn't see too many people in ACU, but I wasn't worried about it. As they started briefing the teams Kustom (event host) called me, as well as the other two Commanding Officers (C.O.) to the front. He made sure to let everyone know to gun for me/us.
When the event started we had ten members on our team against two teams that had 40+ each.
1st half:
We successfully completed one mission and captured 22 prisoners including the Green team's C.O. twice and the Tan team's C.O. once. It was quite epic as well...right before the first half ended we were preparing an ambush by one team flanking left while the other team drew fire from the enemy. We didn't get that far because Munster radio's me informing me that they had captured the Green C.O. (again) and asked for further instructions. I informed him to return our enemy to our base. Towards the end of the first half the Tan team had completed an objective where they downed a pilot through a S.A.M.
We left the field to break for lunch pretty confident that we were winning the event. When I arrived at the barn (staging area) T.J. from Young's in GR said, "Man, what are you guys doing out there? You can't be killing everyone like that!" That made me feel quite good at the time.
While we were eating our food (ask Munster about the gasoline flavored lemon cake) Kustom says, "I want to make things a little more challenging!" "More challenging? Okay!" I said. Then he went on to tell me that he was placing us in the woods around our downed pilot (Jedi). Basically what he told me is that we would be defending Jedi against both teams...yes 82 v 8.
Second half:
So we set out to defend our downed pilot. We set up a 360 degree perimeter around the pilot...the game starts! It took the approaching enemies a good five minutes to locate us. As soon as they did though they were coming in waves. One after another were getting mowed down. We are holding them off for the next twenty minutes. All of a sudden I receive a radio transmission...it's Munster, "We need you to flank, otherwise we're not going to make it out of here!!!" I complied. As I started to flank I noticed enemies approaching at my 3:00. I silently waited for my prey, slung some plastic there way then proceeded to my flanking procedure. I eliminated a total of 13 enemies during the flank. I was 50-60 feet away from the downed pilot when I myself was finally eliminated. Immediately after I was shot here comes (you already know who) Munster charging like a suicidal maniac to eliminate all hostiles in the area. Then...the whistle blows. WE DID IT! ~82 v 8!
The last battle was nothing special so I won't talk about it plus you're probably getting tired by now! I'm sure Munster will finish the story here!
but there is one last thing that I will mention...when we arrived back at the barn and they were announcing the winner, "Tan team ALMOST won, but the winners are..."[glow=red,2,300]ACU[/glow]
And we celebrated!
True Story!!!
