Landing Parties Part Two

ezearln · 08-30-2007, 10:29 AM

Day two, we are all set up in our assualt craft, grenades at the ready to retake our captured Intel Vessel. Riflemen on the gunwales of the craft we mean business by golly. We lay down supressing fire come alongside and toss our "grenades" into the ships gun tubs as we struggle up grappling lines pop pop the bad guys on deck are all in a better place now!
Now it's time to sweep the ship to remove any other hostiles, so down we all go into the darkened lightless bowels of the ship, easy now the bad guys have set booby traps careful careful, 7 of us are now dead splattered to kingdom come with red wax, oh the horror. But wait I still live and I just seen a sneaky bad guy following my LT on th emain deck, oh the sneaky bad guys in their Marroon Berets. So carefully I make my way to the hatchway peek about the corners and see my LT getting aimed at by that nasty bad guy so I lean out and pop the bad guy 2 rounds from my trusty M14 and duck back in. Somehow in all this confusion my LT nearly up the ladder to the bridge doesn't hear my shots, the bad guy does and turns seeing nothing he believes he's safe. However the Schools OIC is on the pier "Observing " the LtCol sees all, I lean out again and fire 2 more into this evile bad guy! again he hears but my LT doesn't. Almost on the bridge a few more seconds, that bad guy turns back aimming at my LT. I finally step out on deck and empty my magazine into this meany head. The LtCol hollers to the Marine "Son you let a "Sailor" kill you!"
My body count for 2 days of finals 2 "Dead" Marines.
Aw don't worry I bought em both a beer at the NCO's club later LOL

Did you explain to them about the maroon berets?

Earl you need to save your best stories for when Troy, A.H. and I come to visit. A good meal, a few beers, and a few "war stories" sounds like a good time in the making.
