    Mission Summary

    First thing we did is drive to the town of chernogursk. We did a convoy with Ghosts in the front, Spartans in the middle and Phoenix in the back. On the way we got ambushed two times. At the first ambush we kept on driving and got out of there unharmed. At the second though our vehicle got dissabled and multiple soldiers went down. After the enemy has been delt with we repaired the stryker and loaded in the still downed soldiers. After that we started heading towards the town.

    At the dismount marker Spartans had eyes on a squad sized element on top of a hill. We used two times mortar rounds and the strykers mk19 to take out the enemy. After that we headed inside the town and rejoined with the other squads and cleared the rest of the town. There we took one times casualtie by sniper fire but after that everything went pretty smooth and we finished this objective.

    Next we set up an V-shaped ambush on a road. Spartans set up some explosives at the end of the kill zone to take out the first vehicles of the convoy. We also set up on the western side of the V and gave suppresing fire with both M240 Gunners. Sadly we took some casualties again but we patched them up and took them towards the RP point and after that towards the strykers which we left at the dismount marker.

    Next we set up an L-shaped ambush on a road with an T-intersection. We set up our explosions again on the end of the kill zone and set up on smaller part of the L. We had pretty good eyes down the road of the kill zone. We took out the first vehicles with some of the explosives but also with a Javelin and MAAWS. We also gave a lot of fire towards the infantry in the back of the convoy. After all was clear we moved back to the RP where we already did an ENDEX.
