1LT J. Kauffman Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 WARNING ORDER Operation Restore Hope 004 Somalia Southern Somalia - January 2020 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITUATION OPERATION TIME: 1900 EST IN-GAME TIME: 0600 IGT ORGANIZATION: 1. REGION: Somalia 2. WEATHER: Clear Skies; 38F ; Wind <1kn NNE; Dawn 0415 IGT; Dusk 1900 IGT 3. TERRAIN: Plains Last week we recovered several vehicles & neutralized an Al-Shaabab IED Factory, as well as destroyed a significant force of the Western Al-Shaabab fighters. After a calm and quiet week, our informant who gathered intel on the IED factory has informed us that Al-Shaabab militants have moved from their strongholds in the south with guidance from an Unknown Al-Shaabab Commander. If the informant is to be believed, we expect an attack on the Airfield imminently. To Compound these issues, we have recieved word that several sandstorms are brewing and will be hitting our TAOR within a few hours. Once the sandstorm hits, all air operations are suspended. Our objectives tonight are several fold, 1). Request resupply and recieve them before the Sandstorm hits. 2). Bolster defenses at Airbase Marwey. 3). Covertly drop our double agent into Marwey, hopefully he can extract some intel that could be of use. 4). (Optional) Attempt to locate Al-Shaabab's staging areas. If located attempt to harrass and disrupt Al-Shaabab militants at the Staging areas before their attack. 5). Prepare for a possible Al-Shaabab assault on the airfield under the cover of the sandstorm. 6). Atmosphereic interference from the sandstorm has cut our ability to contact the Danab Brigade's other forces in the TAOR. Speak with the Danab Captain, and see if he can send a truck and a message to other Danab forces, requesting reinforcements at the airfield. Resupply is coming in this morning. You may requisition one package. 3 x M1240A1 MRAP (Eletronic Warfare Suit & RPG Cages - M240 - M2 - Mk19 1 x M1132 SMP Stryker Minesweeper & 1 x Static Weapon Package 1x AH-6 Littlebird &1 x MH-6 Little Bird 1 x UH-60 Blackhawk & 1 x Drone Package Choose one, you will be able to request the rest in future operations. Capture Over Kill: Where feasible, prioritize capturing hostile forces for intelligence purposes rather than neutralizing them. a. Enemy Disposition Unknown b. Friendly Disposition Danab Brigade c. 1960s - Rules of Engagement On order from your commander, enemy military and paramilitary forces are declared hostile and may be attacked subject to the following instructions: Positive Identification (PID) is required prior to engagement. PID is a reasonable certainty that the proposed target is a legitimate military target. If no PID, contact your next highest commander for decision. Do not engage anyone who has surrendered, or is unarmed or wounded. Any requests for fire support or close air support within 600 Meters of a civilian center must first get authorization from commanding officer. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Maps of the Province: *How to Zoom in: Open spoiler> Right click on photo > Open image in new tab > Congrats, you can now zoom in. Map of the AO: Spoiler Spoiler Notes from Commander: All requests for Close Air Support/Medevac/Resupply/Insertion are to go to Mako 1-6 on FREQ 60.0. Mako 1-6 will contact Rattler 1-6 on FREQ 50.0 to request an asset to assist 1st Platoon as necessary. Once the asset is in the area of Operation for Mako 1-6, Infantry can contact the bird via CAS Net FREQ 45.0 to guide in the bird/direct close air support. If an infantry element is in threat of being overrun and requires immediate assistance, they may declare a "Tactical Emergency" to Mako 1-6, who will then have Rattler 1-6 redirect all available air assets to Mako 1-6's Area of Operation to prevent the unit from being overrun. Expect the enemy to utilize grenades when in close combat. Bring this in your kit ITEM - Zippo if you want to burn the huts When burning a hut make sure to stand back, and let one person burn the hut, as to avoid friendly fire. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ MISSION SFOD - A (AFRICOM) 1).
