“ It’s your patrol Rick! Conduct it as you see fit!” Captain Waters gave the order to the tall, stout framed Lieutenant under his command, “ you’re team is to demolish the munitions bunkers down in Batean Gorge! How you accomplish it is up to you. The Alliance is murdering us by way of utilizing this position and it must be eliminated. Gather what you need, and get the job done! I have other things pressing my time!”

The Captain’s orders were clear, but barely audible over the loud blasts raining down on the HQ up on Cemetery Ridge. It was becoming a bit much for Captain Waters to deal with at the moment. He had given his command, now it was up to Lieutenant Gardner to follow through.

Lieutenant Fredrick Gardener, or “Rick” as his superiors called him, was set for a mission that might eliminate this excessive shelling the Alliance forces were constantly being able to cascade down on the Independent forces. That….in itself was taking a considerable toll on the numbers of freedom fighters, both in casualties and “mortar-shock”. His duty was to subdue that purplebelly controlled area , therefore eliminating their ability to control the northeast sector of Serenity Valley.

These duties were never a cakewalk. They always cost something. Maybe the mangled bodies of some of his troop, or their lifeless shell. Gardener didn’t like it, but it was his duty. The Lieutenant gathered his command…….which consisted of nine soldiers, down from the original twelve.1st Sgt. Bailey, & Sgt. Green. Then there were Corporals, Hotchkiss, Brookland & Brown, and finally privates Howard, Jones & Covington. Still an impressive unit even with the
