59 Hours before Incursion Fort Campbell, KY Commanding Officer's Office
Chris Hatfield sat at his desk reviewing the weeks new personnel files. He wanted to make sure that each new member to his division was prepared for any mission they were to be dispatched on. He also was reviewing several training procedures that the newcomers had to undergo. Then his phone rang, he picked it up and said, Briskly, "Hatfield," He wasnt sure who could be calling him at that point. It was 20:00 hours and he wasnt expecting any calls.

Matt had waited all of ten seconds for an answer at the phone, "Colonel Hatfield, this is Colonel Matthew Keller, of the USMC 1st Force Recon, I've just been informed that a UH-60 has gone down about 5 clicks from Al Fallujah, the Joint Chiefs want us to join forces and get the crew out of the wreck and to Little Birds within a window of fifteen minutes, I recommend that you get some of your best to join you, we will both go into the zone on Little Birds, and then extract on Little Birds, if we don't deploy a signal flare within 10 minutes, they will leave airspace and return in twenty four hours, You should get on the earliest C-130 and get to Camp Pentleton, Anything else?", Matt says to Hatfield via his phone.

Chris listended to the man who immediately introduced himself as Col. Keller. As he listened to what the man had to say he finally added, "Understood. I will bring several of my best troops to aid in the recovery of US soldiers. I do have one question however, will this mission be considered a Black Op? " Hew was wondering which of his troops he was going to need to bring. Several of them did better under pressure than others. And on a mission like this they could not afford for too many mistakes.

"In theory, Yes, the operation will be done at night, I've requested for silencers, but we can only use them on pistols, M4A1's, M16A4's, M60, and SAW's are all we've been cleared to use, and trust me, an M4A1 with a nice large ammo supply will be your best friend, anything else?", Matt says into the phone as he begins writing up a briefing for the mission, still with the phone in hand.

Chris listened to Keller speak giving him a rough sketch briefing, ending with asking if he had any other questions. Chris shook his head, knowing he couldnt be seen and said, "Just the one, when and where do we rendevouz?" Chris started making a listing of the weapons they were cleared to use and the personnel he would be taking with him on the trip.

Matt listened to Chris's question, Here at Pentleton, I made sure that a C-130 is ready to take you and your men here, I will be expecting you for the first briefing in at least 3 hours, we have all the tactical gear you will need, we take off on C-17's forty'ish hours after you arrive, then take UH-60's into the zone, anything else?", Keller asks as he begins writing a tactical plan on a piece of paper.

No that will be all. We will arrive at Pentleton in 3 hours, ready for briefing. Chris answered Keller's question. He then hung up the phone and looked out the window of hsi office at the Kentucky landscape. He sighed and smirked at the thought of being of use once again. He hadnt seen action since Iraq, and he was looking forward to it.

Matt listened to Chris, "Seeya then Colonel", he says as he and Chris place down their phones at the same time, Matt picks up his phone again, it was time for a 'long-distance' call to Iraq, "Major Peters, this is Colonel Matthew Keller, CO of 1st Force Recon, ready your UH-60's and Little Birds ASAP, we arrive in 40 Hours, I want to be in the air as soon as we arrive", Matt says, he listens to the Majors reply, then hangs up the phone.
