Situation
Last week, Alpha Company all but wiped out the advance elements of the Russian 1st Guards Tank Army and 27th Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade in Beketov City. Enemy losses have been overwhelming, but collateral damages have once again become a serious concern to NATO leadership and the Lithuanian people.
First Platoon has been directed to conduct a presence patrol to root out remaining Russian forces and improve the image of the US Army in-country. This includes distributing humanitarian aid to villages suffering from supply chain disruptions.
Mission
First Platoon “Widowmakers” is ordered to move to Beketov City Hall to meet with mayor Andreas Stroganovich. Platoon HQ will transfer a cash aid supplement to the mayor in order to facilitate rapid rebuilding of the city.
Once this is complete, First Platoon will split into sections to patrol OBJ Kid Gloves and OBJ Charmer, clearing any residual Russian forces. In the absence of enemy contacts, distribute aid to civilians and work to improve good will between Lithuanians and Americans. Civilians could potentially have information on enemy forces in the area.
3CAB “Falcons” is ordered to transport 3x HMMWV from FOB Murphy to the Beketov Stadium (OBJ Torch Bearer) for use by NATO security forces. Once this is complete, air elements will provide overwatch and support to ground forces.
